Welcome Back! I Hope You Enjoy What Hallucigenia77 And I Have Come Up With This Time! I Own Nothing!

In a field outside the Animarius Castle, Moroha was breathing deeply as he was surrounded by Neo-Lizardons. "You ready, Moroha?" Futaba asked from a tower overlooking as Moroha pulled out a small mechanical purple Cat-Eye Mantis. "I'm always ready!" Moroha said as he then pulled out a high-tech scythe. "Henshin!" Moroha announced as he then had the mechanical Cat-Eye Mantis attach itself to the head just behind the blade.

Henshin!

Moroha was then covered in ever-expanding energy hexagons that formed into his rider suit's Masked Form, which is purple and red with a yellowish visor while the armor itself is shaped and modeled after a mantis's egg sack. "Hmm...not really that impressive looking." Futaba told Cicadeath and Flygor. " is only the masked form!" Cicadeath assured. "Once the cast comes off, you'll be in awe!" Flygor promised. "Plus, thediscarded armor pieces double as projectiles that would hit nearby enemies when flown off!" added. "I see then!" Moroha said as he then took the front half of the robotic Cat-Eye Mantis pulled it forwards a bit, causing pieces of his armor to automatically start coming loose. "Cast Off!" Moroha announced as he pulled the front half of the mechanical Cat-Eye Mantis completely forwards over top of the base of the scythe, causing his loosened to completely fly off in all directions.

Cast Off! Change, Mantis!

That's when Moroha's true Rider Form is fully revealed! His Rider Form's armor was slimmer and colored mostly purple with some red in the chest armor and some light brown on the tips of his arms, not to mention the shape of his arm and leg armor had an almost woody stick-like appearance as a reference to the Cat-Eye Mantis's alternate name Giant African Stick Mantis. Also, like in his regular form, he had four arms, the upper two being like that of a mantis with blades for tips and the lower two being more humanoid with hands and clawed fingers, while his feet look the same as his regular form (two front clawed toes and one back clawed toe). Plus, his wings were covered by a pair of hard wing-like armor resembling the tegmina (outer wings) of actual male Male Cat-Eye Mantises. Not only that, but his Rider Form's helmet was shaped and modeled after the head of a Cat-Eye Mantis, complete with antenna and wide yellow eyes that are tipped with horn-like structures that cover Moroha's own horns. As for his belt, instead of the ZECT logo like most of the Zecter Riders have on them, it had the simple image of a Cat-Eye Mantis with its wings and front limbs spread out from each other.

"Impressive, correct me if I'm wrong, but don't the ZECT Riders have a 'Clock Up' function?" Futaba asked, Cicadeath and Flygor. "Actually, yes, they do!" Cicadeath said. "In fact, we implemented that function too!" Flygor said. "Moroha, if you click that button on the side of the Zector, you'll be able to move faster than the eye can see!" Cicadeath explained. "Perfect!" Moroha said as he then pressed the button on the side of the mechanical Cat-Eye Mantis that's still attached to the scythe.

Clock Up!

And in the blink of an eye, Moroha changed positions as every Neo Lizardon blew to smithereens! "Ha! Let's see the humans top this! Have you guys come up with a name for this?" Futaba asked. "We have, Kamen Rider Chaeta!" Cicadeath said. "After one of the alternate names for the Cat Eye Mantis that Moroha's motif is derived from." Flygor said. "That makes sense, I think!" Futaba noted. "We also have a Vector for him in the works, but it's not quite completed yet as of right now!" Flygor said. "I see! So, have you two found the location for Otoha yet?" Futaba asked. "Not yet, but thanks for reminding us, cause we'd better get back to that!" Cicadeath and Flygor said as they flew back to their laboratory. "Once Otoha is revived, the humans will be able to experience the full wrath of the Shadow Angels!" Futaba said, laughing maliciously.

Back with Cicadeath and Flygor, they went to the Dimension Gate and started scrolling through various different locations, dimensions, and universes, including Townsville from "The Powerpuff Girls", Bikini Bottom from "SpongeBob SquarePants", O-Town from "Rocko's Modern Life", Silent Springs from "My Dad the Rockstar", Tiburon from "Kenny the Shark", Nearburg from "CatDog", the Pupununu Village from "Tak and the Power of Juju", Cornbury from "Supernoobs", Ivoire from the video game "Phantom Brave", Genius Grove from "Dexter's Laboratory", Springwood School of Positive Outcomes from "Puberteens", Fair City from "WordGirl", Endsville from "The Grim Adventures of Billy & Mandy", the Wasteland that includes the titular train from "Infinity Train", the Park from "Regular Show", the Middle of Nowhere from "Courage the Cowardly Dog", RaDos from "Di-Gata Defenders", the Moonlands from "Magi-Nation", Peaceville from "Grojband", Del Nuevo from "D.N.

*Groan* "This Is so boring!" Cicadeath said. "What's so special about this 'Ohata' anyway?" Flygor asked. "Otoha!" Johannes corrected as he walked in. "She's known as the Musical Angel, due to her ability to hypnotize masses of humans into being captured and absorbed by the Harvest Beasts, bioengineered giant creatures that help us collect Prana for the Tree of Life! Not only that, but she can play the Soul Transmission Song, which can be used to send the spirit of a Shadow Angel to Earth and into a Cherubim Soldier!" He added. "She was also the most loyal to Touma, when Appolonius betrayed us for Celiane, she stood by him." Lensi added. Golshi then growled in confirmation. Suddenly, Otoha's feather started glowing from within the amber it was encased in as the portal stopped on a world, the first thing they saw being a volcano with a sign reading 'Miracle City' on it.

At the same time, the device on the Dimension Gate had detected several Animarius signatures in that same world. "Woah, we hit another motherlode here!" Cicadeath said, checking out the readings the device was putting out. "One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten, ELEVEN SIGNATURES?! That is a motherlode!" Flygor said. "Actually, I think it's twelve, considering that one of the signatures is identical to one of the others!" Cicadeath said as he checked the device. "King Draco!" They called, rushing to the throne room. Meanwhile, in the throne room, King Draco was created by three new Animarius soldiers, who are obviously from the Royal Guard, due to all three of them having King Draco's symbol on their left shoulders. The first one was a male humanoid serpent with green scales and feathers on his body as well as two lines of red-and-yellow stripes on his sides, bird-like legs and arms, a pair of Archaeopteryx-like wings on his back, a draconic head with a red feathered crest, a tuft of red feathers on the tip of his tail (Ehecanado the Ehecacoatl Animarius). The second one was a male humanoid serpent with a turquoise-colored body that produces bluish flames, reddish spikes running across his spine, a draconic head with a large sharp bony crest facing forwards on top of it, a pair of dragon-like arms and legs, and a sharp body spike on the tip of his tail (Xiuhferno the Xiuhcoatl Animarius). Finally, the third one is a male humanoid turquoise serpent with two draconic heads, one where the head usually is and the other where the tip of his tail is supposed to be, and a pair of arms with each head, with the Soul Core being only on the front half of the body, and having no legs at all (Maquizoom the Maquizcoatl Animarius).

"Ah, the Coatl brothers, so good to see the three of you again." King Draco said. "Likewise, your Majesty! Too bad our other brothers Mazantler, Chimalscale, Tlildro, and Xicalchurn aren't here with us at the moment!" Ehecanado said. "Oh, what happened?" King Draco asked out of curiosity. "Well, about a few thousand years ago, while we were in the process of invading ancient Mexico, our four other brothers, along with Hogarito, Velachifo, Pinaviztla, Cipactlon, Atotolino, Culebronk, and the Cadejo Twins, discovered a portal that came out of nowhere and they all entered it out of curiosity to see what's on the other side! Unfortunately, before the three of us could enter it ourselves, the portal closed incredibly quickly, leaving our four other brothers and their friends trapped in the other side of that thing!" Xiuhferno complained. "King Draco! King Draco!" Cicadeath and Flygor called, running in. "King Draco! King Draco!" Cicadeath and Flygor called, running in. "Big news! We found Otoha and a record 12 Animarius Signatures all in one world!" Cicadeath reported.

Soon, everyone was in the portal room, examining the world that both Otoha's feather and the device reacted to. "Miracle City, huh?" King Draco asked, scoffing at the name. "Doesn't sound like an appropriate name for a place with an active volcano in the area!" General Megalonis said as said volcano briefly erupted. "Either way, if Otoha is in there, we need to get her, now!" Moroha said. "Way ahead of ya! We've already managed to get some more of our own soldiers back to life, just for this occasion!" Goliathus said as several more Animarius soldiers entered the room. The first one was a male humanoid Jaguar wearing male Aztec soldier clothing with the symbol for the Mammal Army on his left shoulder and carrying a Tecpatl knife in his right hand (Jaguaron). The second one was a male humanoid Honduran White Bat with wings on his bat and the symbol of the Mammal Army on his left shoulder while holding a Macuahuitl (ancient Aztec club lined with pieces of obsidian) in his hands (Ectoby). The third one was male Brazilian Tapir with a muscular upper body (Tapirus). The fourth one was a male humanoid Magnificent Frigatebird with wings on his back and having the symbol of the Bird Army on his left shoulder while carrying a bow and arrow (Fregatax). The fifth one was a male Toco Toucan with a wings on his back and having the symbol of the Bird Army on his left shoulder while carrying a Tepoztopilli (ancient Aztec pole-arm weapon) in his hands (Toucanick). The sixth one was a male Yellow-Knobbed Curassow, a bird related to the turkey, with wings on his back and having the symbol of the Bird Army on his left shoulder while carrying a Quauholōlli (Ancient Aztec mace-like club consisting of a 50 cm to 70 cm long wooden stick ending in a hard ball of wood, rock or copper, in this case it's rock) in his hands (Curassock). The seventh one was a male Splendid Toadfish with arms and legs while having the symbol of the Fish Army on his left shoulder (Splendius). The eighth one was a male humanoid Bullseye Round Stingray with muscular arms and legs as well as having the symbol of the Fish Army on his left shoulder (Stingrayus). The ninth one was a female Pacific Electric Ray with feminine arms and legs as well as having the symbol of the Fish Army on her left shoulder (Tetrovolta). The tenth one was a male Boll Weevil with four arms and having the symbol of the Insect Army on his left shoulder (Weevile). The eleventh one was a female human Prickly Pear Cochineal with four arms and having the symbol of the Insect Army on her left shoulder (Cochineala). The twelfth one was a female humanoid Hooded Mantis (scientific name: Choeradodis rhomboidea) with two arms and four legs while having the symbol of the Insect Army on her left shoulder (Rhomboidea). The thirteenth one was a male humanoid Gila Monster with the symbol of the Reptile Army on his left shoulder (Gilabite). The fourteeth one was a female Mexican Plateau Horned Lizard with the symbol of the Reptile Army on her left shoulder (Orbicula). The fifteenth one was a male humanoid Central American Coral Snake with the symbol of the Reptile Army on his left shoulder (Coralillo). The sixteenth one was a male Mexican Burrowing Caecilian (also known as the Tapalcua or Tepelcua) with the symbol of the Amphibian Army on his left shoulder (Tapalcuard). The seventeenth one was a male Barred Tiger Salamander with the symbol of the Amphibian Army on his left shoulder (Mavortius). The eighteenth one was a male Northern Glass Frog (also known as a Fleischmann's glass frog) with a very noticeable hook protruding from his spine and having the symbol of the Amphibian Army on his left shoulder (Hylinook). The nineteenth one was a male humanoid Lambeosaurus with the symbol of the Dinosaur Army on his left shoulder (Lambeon). The twentieth one was a male humanoid Gorgosaurus with the symbol of the Dinosaur Army on his left shoulder (Gorgos). The twenty-first and final one was a male humanoid Quetzalcoatlus (world's largest Pterosaur) with huge wings on his back and having the symbol of the Dinosaur Army on his left shoulder (Quetzalcoatlord).

"Perfect, and the two of you will be leading this expedition." King Draco told Futaba and Moroha. "We'd be happy to oblige!" Futaba and Moroha said at once. "We're coming along too, mostly because we're getting a bit bored around here!" Stephano said. "Plus, I've already called in some Zodiarts from Foundation X's Zodiarts Research Division to help out, including one of Director Chushin's four generals!" Akuji said as several new Zodiarts appeared, specifically a female humanoid Toucan (Tucana), a female humanoid with characteristics of a Northern Yellow Sac Spider a.k.a. Long-Legged Sac Spider (Aranea), a female humanoid lizard specifically based on the Starred Agama (Lacerta), a female humanoid with thorny rose-covered vines on her body, legs, and torso with a larger rose flower on top her head leaves on her shoulders (Rosa, not to be confused with Ronnie Anne's grandmother), a male humanoid Toad (Bufo), a humanoid Rooster with sharp metallic claws and spurs on his legs (Gallus), a humanoid Seahorse (Hippocampus), a female mechanical humanoid with body parts and a shield modeled after an old printing office (Officina Typographica), a humanoid Oak Tree (Robur Carolinum), a male humanoid Flying Squirrel (Sciurus Volans), a male humanoid Flying Fish (Piscis Volans), a female female humanoid with orbs of an electrostatic generator on her head, shoulders, and arms (Machina Electrica), a male humanoid battery with arms and legs made out of electricity (Pugna Volta, meaning Battery of Volta in Latin), a male humanoid crab-like creature with small claws (Cancer Minor), a male humanoid red furred Bull with small horns (Taurus Poniatovii), a male metallic humanoid Eagle with large wings on his back (Aquila), a male humanoid Owl with wings on his back (Noctua), a female humanoid made out of river water with foaming long hair (Eridanus, based on the Eridanus River), a muscular male humanoid made out of river water with a foaming full beard (Jordanus, based on the Jordan River), a male humanoid made of river water that had a face and claws like a tiger (Tigris, based on the Tigris River), a young male humanoid cat that has the left half of his body look like a skeleton (Schrödinger, based on Schrödinger's Cat), a male mechanical Humanoid with a conical head like a rocket and having rocket boosters for arms and legs (Saturn V), a female humanoid with characteristics of a Black Widow Spider (Black Widow), and a male humanoid White Tiger with ancient Chinese-inspired battle armor and long sharp metallic claws on his fingers (Baihu, based on the White Tiger of the West, better known as Byakko).

"General Baihu, glad you could join us." Akuji told the White Tiger Zodiarts. "My pleasure, everyone at the Foundation has been admittedly curious about the new allies and enemies that we've been working with." Baihu admitted. "That White Tiger is a General?" Megalonis asked in confusion. "I am one of the four Generals of Director Chushin of Foundation X's Zodiarts division, Baihu, powered by the White Tiger of the West, a.k.a. Byakko." Baihu said. "Since when is there a constellation based on a White Tiger?" Tyrannus asked in confusion. "It's actually one of the Four Symbols among the Chinese Constellations, the other three being Qinglong a.k.a Seiryu, the Azure Dragon of the East, Zhūquè a.k.a. Suzaku, the Vermillion Bird of the South, and Xuánwǔ a.k.a. Genbu, the Black Tortoise of the North, also called the Dark Warrior of the North due to it being symbolized as a Tortoise with a large Snake wrapped around its shell! Not only that, but the Four Symbols are each divided into four groups of seven smaller constellations known as the Twenty-Eight Mansions! Plus, there's another set of Chinese Constellations known as the Three Enclosures, individually named as the Purple Forbidden Enclosure, the Supreme Palace Enclosure, and the Heavenly Market Enclosure! In addition to that, the Four Symbols, also known as the Four Guardians, Four Gods, and Four Auspicious Beasts, there's a Fifth Beast known as the Yellow Dragon of the Center, which isn't represented as a Constellation like the others, but usually represents the planet Earth itself!" Akuji explained. "Thanks for explaining everything, Akuji! Before you guys ask, there is a trio of Zodiarts based on the Three Enclosures, though they are more or less Lieutenants compared to us Four Generals! As for the Yellow Dragon of the Center, that's actually Director Chushin's Zodiarts form, since his personal Zodiarts Switch has power over not just the Earth, but the entire Solar System as a whole, with the Sun being its only Star!" Baihu explained.

"And let me tell you, that fool Gamou wishes he could have reached the power level of Director Chushin's Zodiarts form!" He added with a chuckle. The made King Draco grin with intrigue while the rest of the Animarius started shivering at what Baihu was implying about Director Chushin. "And who are your friends?" Moroha asked. "The Toucan Constellation, Tucana!" Tucana called. "The Long-Legged Sac Spider Constellation, Aranea!" Aranea called. "The Lizard Constellation, Lacerta!" Lacerta called. "The Rose Constellation, Rosa!" Rosa called. "The Toad Constellation, Bufo!" Bufo called. "The Rooster Constellation, Gallus!" Gallus called. "The Seahorse Constellation, Hippocampus!" Hippocampus called out. "The Printing Office Constellation, Officina Typographica!" Officina Typographica called. "The Royal Oak Tree Constellation, Robur Carolinum!" Robur Carolinum called. "The Flying Squirrel Constellation, Sciurus Volans!" Sciurus Volans called. "The Flying Fish Constellation, Piscis Volans!" Piscis Volans called. "The Electrostatic Generator Constellation, Machina Electrica!" Machina Electrica called. "The Battery Constellation, Pugna Volta!" Pugna Volta called. "The Small Crab Constellation, Cancer Minor!" Cancer Minor called. "The Poniatowski's Bull Constellation, Taurus Poniatovii!" Taurus Poniatovii called. "The Eagle Constellation, Aquila!" Aquila called. "The Owl Constellation, Noctua!" Noctua called. "The Eridanos River Constellation, Eridanus!" Eridanus called. "The Jordan River Constellation, Jordanus!" Jordanus called. "The Tigris River Constellation, Tigris!" Tigris called. "The Schrödinger's Cat Gamma-Ray Constellation, Schrödinger!" Schrödinger called. "The Rocket Gamma-Ray Constellation, Saturn V!" Saturn V called. "And I'm the Black Widow Spider Gamma-Ray Constellation, Black Widow!" Black Widow called. "What kind of a cat is a Schrödinger's Cat?" General Leo asked in confusion.

"It's not an actual cat, really it's a thought experiment, put it simply, you take a box, a cat, and a vial of poison, put the cat and the poison in the box and give it to someone, that person doesn't know whether the cat is alive..." Schrodinger said, pointing to the right half resembling a normal living house cat. "...or dead..." He said, pointing to the left half resembling a cat-like skeleton. "...until the box is opened." He finished. "Okay, that's just weird." Tyrannus said. "What can I say? The Schrödinger's Cat is quite the paradox, kind of like myself, and I don't mean the time travel kind of paradox, but I'm referring to the fact that I'm both alive and dead at once!" Schrödinger said. "I might as well bring some Gaia Risers just in case, Mano, can you man the True Gaia Memory and use it to make some if I call?" Stephano asked. "Can and will do, Boss!" Mano said. "Question, is that guy your Second-in-Command?" Baihu asked. "Technically, no, he's actually my Third-in-Command! The Second-in-Command title goes to Maximo Brutale, who's also my late father's personal bodyguard! You can tell him apart from my other gangsters simply because of the fact that he's bigger, taller, and a lot more muscular than everyone else!" Stephano said.

"Is he one of those 'Dopants' I believe you call them, as well?" Moroha asked. "At the moment, no, mostly because I totally forgot to give him one!" Stephano admitted sheepishly. "Well anyway, unless anyone else would like to join, we'd better get going!" Futaba said. "Hey! Wait for me!" A voice called out as a large armored ball came rolling in before jumping up and unfurling to reveal a male humanoid Three-banded Armadillo with the symbol of the Mammal Army on his left shoulder. "Bowladillo, reporting for duty, everyone!" The Armadillo, now identified as Bowladillo, said with a salute. "We would like to come as well." The Coatl brothers said. "Very well, then! Let's go!" Futaba said. Soon arriving atop a building in the center of Miracle City. "Well, Futaba, Drako put you and Moroha in charge of this mission, what's our first step?" Stephano asked. "I don't know where to start looking for the Animarius signatures, but Otoha is most likely in this world's afterlife, so we should figure out a way to access it." Futaba said as an explosion followed by sirens filled the air. "Maybe they have an idea where to start!" Bowladillo said, pointing to a nearby jewelry shop where an old woman dressed in an orange and black suit resembling a Turkey, a younger woman wearing a green and black suit resembling a vulture, and a girl around 13 years old wearing a purple and black suit resembling a Raven each carrying a bag full of jewels stepping out.

They all then laughed maniacally as they started flying away. "Hmmm..." Stephano said, interested in them. "Better than I can think of. Aquila, Noctua, fetch them for us, if you would." Futaba told the two Zodiarts. "Certainly!" Aquila and Noctua said as they flew up towards the bird-themed trio. Managing to intercept them in flight. "Greetings, ladies." Aquila said. "Hey! Who are you two? We are in the middle of a heist here!" The old lady in the Turkey suit said angrily. "Relax, madam, we are only here on behalf of some friends who wish to talk to you." Noctua said. "Your friends aren't cops, are they?" The old Lady asked. "Far from it." Aquila said.

Later...

"Musical Angel Otoha?" The 13 year old asked in confusion after they met up in an abandoned building. "That's her full title!" Futaba said. "Never heard of her, but...if she's already dead as you say, you may want to talk to Sartana." The Turkey woman said. "Sartana?" Moroha asked. "Her full name is Sartana of the Dead! She's a supervillain who happens to be an undead skeleton wearing a sombrero and a red dress! Plus, she wields a mystic guitar that she often uses to bring back the dead as part of her own Skeleton Bandito Army!" The young woman in the Vulture suit explained. "Where can we find this 'Sartana of the Dead'?" Futaba asked. "Her lair is in an old, dark, and very scary-looking abandoned prison building here in Miracle City that's guarded by some of her Skeleton Banditos! You can't miss it!" The Turkey lady said. "Fair warning, though, she is not one to be trifled with, especially if somebody were to be stupid enough to steal her treasure or even her mystic guitar!" The Vulture woman said. "Trust us." Futaba said, pulling out his driver. "We aren't ones to be trifled with either!" Moroha said, pulling out his Scythe and Zector. "One more thing, have any of you ladies seen anything that resembles these medallions you see on our bodies?" Xiuferno asked. "Actually, I did see something like those while on that School trip to the museum the other day." The 13 year old girl noted.

"How many of them did you see?" Maquizoom asked. "I counted eleven of them, last time I've checked!" The 13-year-old Raven girl answered. "They have pictures of them on the museum's website." She said, pulling out a laptop and showing the pictures she was talking about. Specifically, they were eleven Soul Cores with the images of a Hoga (a mythical fish the size of a porpoise that had the head and ears a hog with five half-foot-long barbels around its mouth and the ability to change colors from red to yellow and to green like a chameleon when swimming), a Velachif (a giant and hideous mythical amphibious snake that had a rounded head, a parrot-like beak, a crocodilian tail, and a colorful, predominantly red body with black stripes as well as a deadly venomous bite), a Pinaviztli (an arthropod of ill-omen known to the Aztecs, which actually looks like a spider the size of a mouse, smooth and hairless and fat-bodied, as well as red and black in color), a Mazacoatl (a mythical snake with large sharp deer antlers on its head and a rattle on his tail like a rattlesnake that lives in caves on steep mountains and cliffs, yet it never leaves its lair as it can draw in with its breath rabbits, deer, and humans alike), a Chimalcoatl (meaning "shield snake", which is a long, thick Mexican mythical snake that earns its name from the fleshy, colorful shield on its back, plus its appearance is an omen of death or prosperity and fortune in war, depending on the occasion), a Tlilcoatl (a long, powerful mythical snake, which had glossy black scales, a large head with blazing yellow eyes and beardlike appendages at the back similar to those of the barbels of a catfish, and a tail that's split into two tails at the end, that's often found in the swamps and waterlogged caves of Mexico), a Xicalcoatl (a.k.a. the Aztec "Chocolate Cup Snake", that had a natural growth on their back that looks like a jicara (a gourd chocolate cup) down to the last detail, with colorful designs and patterns on its smooth surface, which it uses to lure humans to the river in order to drown them), the Cipactli (a primeval Aztec sea monster that's part crocodilian, part fish, and part toad or frog, with indefinite gender, an insatiable appetite, and having every joint on its body was adorned with an extra mouth), the Atotolin (a mythical bird, known as the bird king of Aztec culture, with a large reddish eagle-like head with a feathery crest, a long slender purplish body, a yellow beak, a green goose-like neck, and two short limbs with human-like hands instead of legs), El Culebron (a monstrous hairy snake with a head shaped like a calf or horse that can shapeshift into any form that frightens children the most), and a Black Cadejo (a mythical dog-like creature with goat/deer-like hooves and sometimes horns, with the Back variant being evil and sometimes having horns that are a mix between those of a goat and a bull while the White variant is benevolent and sometimes having horns that are a mix between a goat's horns and a deer's antlers).

"Those are the Soul Cores of our missing brothers!" The Coatl brothers said upon recognizing four of the snakes inscribed on some of the medallions, specifically the Mazacoatl, Chimalcoatl, Tlilcoatl, and Xicalcoatl. "I see the resemblance." Futaba joked. "Watch it, punk!" Xiuhferno said in annoyance. "What about the other two serpents I'm seeing here?" Stephano asked, referring to the medallions inscribed with the Velachif and El Culebron. "You mean Velachifo and Culebronk? Those two aren't actually our brothers! They're our distant cousins, more or less!" Ehecanado said. "And the other five?" Shibogumon asked. "Those are our friends Hogarito, Pinaviztla, Cipactlon, Atotolino, and the... Cadejo... Twins? Hey, wait a minute, that Soul Core belongs to Maldejo, the Black Cadejo Animarius! Where's the Soul Core of his twin brother Buendejo, the White Cadejo Animarius?!" Xiuhferno asked in shock and confusion.

"Beats me, these 11 are the only ones the museum had on display." The 13 year old girl shrugged. "We'll figure that out later. For now, Moroha and I will track down this Sartana of the Dead, everyone else, figure out a way to steal the Soul Cores from the Museum." Futaba ordered. "Right!" Stephano, Akuji, the Animarius soldiers, and Zodiarts said at once. "I'd be careful not to draw in too much attention or set off any alarms when stealing from, lest you people get caught by the police or by White Pantera!" The Turkey lady warned. "Who's White Pantera?" Akuji asked. "An old flame of my mom here." The 13 year old girl said. "But more importantly, a super hero here in Miracle City." Her mother said, shifting the subject away from her love life. "A superhero who's also someone's former lover? That's kinda ironic, don't ya think?" Baihu asked with a chuckle.

"Not as ironic as the fact that his father, Puma Loco, is a supervillain, while his son, El Tigre, is undecided, a divide that apparently goes back generations." The Turkey Woman said. "How many generations exactly?" Jaguaron asked. "I'd say about five generations before Puma Loco!" The Turkey lady said. "It's pretty crazy." The 13 year old said as Stephano got an idea. "What are your names?" He asked. "I am Lady Gobbler, this is my daughter Voltura, and my Granddaughter Black Cuervo." Lady Gobbler said. "Well, I have a proposition for you ladies, you help us pull of this museum heist, and I help you three get back at any enemies you may have." Stephano offered. "Right now, our biggest enemies are Puma Loco, White Pantera, and El Tigre." Black Cuervo said. "Well, like I said, if you help us..." Stephano said, pulling three Gaia Risers out. "I'll help you." He said.

"What are those things?" Voltura asked in confusion. "Allow me to introduce myself, I am Stephano Inverso, despite my age, I am the leader of a very successful criminal organization, one that specializes in making what is known as 'Dopants'. And in order to make a Dopant, we need a Gaia Riser, which is what these things are, a Gaia Memory, which all it takes is one text to my third in command to make, and a willing subject." Stephano said. "These Dopants, you say, they are some kind of monsters, right?" Lady Gobbler asked. "Technically speaking, yes! But, don't worry, the transformation into a Dopant isn't irreversible, since one can easily change back into their original form when they need to!" Stephano said. The three supervillains pondered his offer.

Later...

Mano was in the True Gaia Memory room when he got an alert on his phone, answering it, he saw it was a text from Stephano that 'Raven, Vulture, Turkey'. "Oh! Got three new customers already! Don't mind if I do!" Mano said as he started typing the three different words onto the computer and then pressed enter, causing the Gaia Memory Manufacturing Machine to roar to life while drawing energy from the True Gaia Memory.

Later...

An old man wearing a large golden sombrero was examining a Celeste colored gemstone through an eyepiece. "I'll admit, I've stolen a lot of gems in my career, but this isn't like one I've ever seen." He said. "Then, what do you think it really is, Grandpapi?" A thirteen-year-old Latino boy, who had tan skin, black chocolate curly hair, brown eyebrows and eyes, with a noticeable scar on his left eye, while wearing an orange and yellow striped shirt with a black jacket that has a yellow line down the arms and a small red star on the left part of the jacket as well as a pair of jeans held by a black belt with a silver buckle engraved a black capital 'T' on it and a pair of brown shoes, asked while accompanied by a thirteen-year-old half-Latina/half-white girl who had pastel blue hair, light skin and blue eyes while wears a sleeveless white shirt, a red overall dress (with matching goggles on top of her head), black bracelets with spikes, white socks with red stripes, and gray boots with black belts and silver buckles as well as black soles. "I honestly have no clue. Where did you say you found this thing?" The old man asked the girl.

"I found it somewhere along the sidewalk while Manny and I were hanging around!" The girl answered. "Well it certainly is a strange gemstone, in fact if you look closely you can almost see that something is in it!" The old man said, removing the eyepiece and giving it and the gemstone to the girl who looked through to see what looked like stars and some kind of wrist worn device. "Huh! Looks like some sort of device with a symbol made of multiple stars!" The girl said. "Weird." She said, handing the eye piece and gem stone to Manny so he could look before experiencing a headache. Once that happened, the girl saw visions of a Celeste-colored Ocelot with the wings of a Common Starling and the gills, dorsal fin, anal fin, pelvic fins, pectoral fins, and tail (complete with caudal fin) of a Marine Betta a.k.a. Comet (scientific name: Calloplesiops altivelis), as well as Celeste-colored Lucharanger and even a Celeste-colored weapon that had some resemblance to a sword mixed with a Macuahuitl.

"You okay, Frida?" Manny asked. "Yeah, just ever since I found this thing, I keep getting these visions of some kind of creature, a figure in spandex, and an awesome looking weapon." Frida said. "Plus, the only thing they all have in common is that they share the same exact color as that stone!" She added. "It was weird, especially the creature, it looked like an amalgamation of an Ocelot, a Starling, and some kind of fish." She said. "Wow, that is weird!" Manny noted. Suddenly a metal feather shot through an open window, embedding itself in the floor. "Whoa! Who threw in the metal feather?" Frida asked in shock. Before noticing a piece of paper wrapped around it. "Hey, there's something here." She said, unwrapping the paper. "It's a note addressed to you guys and Mr. Rivera, well Puma Loco, White Pantera, and El Tigre, but you get the picture, and...look at who it's from!" Frida said, pointing the signature saying 'Flock of Fury'.

"*Gasp!* The Flock of Fury?!" The old man asked in shock. "What do they want this time?" Manny asked. "Dear Puma Loco, White Pantera, and El Tigre, come to the museum for a nice little surprise." A man wearing a Luchador mask, white coat, and bronze boots inscribed 'WP' read on the note. "Okay, something tells me that is obviously some sort of trap!" He noted. Before a loud explosion rang out. "What was that?" Frida asked as everyone looked out a window to see smoke in the sky. "That smoke is coming from the direction of the museum!" The old man said. "I'm guessing they're getting impatient or something!" Frida noted. "But why the museum of all places? The only thing that's even remotely interesting there is those strange medallions." She said. "Strange medallions?" The old man asked in confusion. "Yeah, some scientist guys found these strange medallions on a dig and the museum has them on display." Frida said, showing a brochure with some of the Soul Cores shown.

"Okay, that is very strange, what with all the assortment of creatures that inscribed on them!" The old man noted. "Wait, could it be?!" He asked, rushing out of the room and coming back with a large book titled 'Rivera Family History'. "According to legend, long ago, 12 mysterious animals arrived in what is now Miracle City, but they made the mistake of trespassing on the territory of the original El Tigre!" He started reading from a section of the book. "Heck, they made an even bigger mistake by calling him a coward for being indecisive, and we Rivera Men know very well that we hate being called cowards, right?" The old man said, to which Manny and the man in white nodded in agreement. "So he beat them so badly, they exploded, leaving behind nothing but the medallions they wore on their left shoulders." He explained. "However, only eleven of those animals were destroyed, since one of them had gone and fled like a coward during the fight and hasn't been seen since then!" The old man added. "Cool." Frida said. "But either way, we must go and investigate just what the Flock of Fury is up to!" The man said, grabbing Manny and the old man and running towards the museum. "Hey! Wait for me!" Frida said, running after them.

Meanwhile, with Futaba and Moroha...

They were flying towards the old rundown prison a.k.a. Sartana of the Dead's Lair. "That looks like the place they said." Futaba said as they landed outside what looks like an old abandoned prison with a pair of Skeletons standing guard. "Just two guards? Way too easy!" Moroha said. "Let's make it a real showy entrance, shall we?" Futaba suggested, pulling out his driver. "I see where your going with that!" Moroha said while pulling out his scythe and Zecter. Soon, the doors were literally blown off their hinges as the guards literally fell to pieces upon contact with the back wall. This got the attention of an old female skeleton wearing a red sombrero and a black-and-red dress who's holding a golden acoustic guitar. "Wow, that was weak!" Futaba said as he and Moroha as Kamen Riders Tetra and Chaeta, the latter in his masked form walked in. "Who Dares To Intrude Upon My Lair?!" The female skeleton asked while another skeleton, who looks to be that of a thirteen-year-old boy wearing a cowboy outfit complete with a cowboy hat, claws, a poncho, and boots, came out from behind her.

Futaba pulled out his sword and pointed it in the female Skeleton's face. "Are you the one they call Sartana of the Dead?" He asked. "Yes, that is me! And this is my grandson, Django of the Dead!" The female skeleton, identified as Sartana of the Dead, answered while pointing at the 13-year-old boy skeleton, now identified as Django of the Dead. "Now get off my property before I call in my army an-" Sartana said before Futaba pointed to the side and flicked his wrist, telekinetically tossing a random skeleton into the wall, causing him to meet the same fate as the ones that were just guarding the door. "Next skeleton I see won't get off so easy." Futaba warned. "Okay, okay, fine! Just what do you want with me, anyway?" Sartana asked. "We were told you could help fix a problem we had to travel through time and space to get here for." Futaba said. "And what would that be?" Sartana asked in confusion. "Musical Angel Otoha, she died a long time ago, and we have reason to believe her soul wound up in this world's afterlife." Futaba explained, showing a holographic image of said Shadow Angel.

"Ah, you must be referring to the Land of the Dead! Well, if you two are actually planning on going there to find her, then I'm afraid I cannot help you on that end, mostly because I haven't been in the Land of the Dead since 1962, due to my parents La Muerte and Xibalba banishing me here to the Land of the Living after I've ended up killing one of my eight siblings while I was in a fit of rage from the fact my ex-lover Jorge Rivera left me on the alter twice!" Sartana explained bitterly. "Well do you know how we can get to this land, or at least access it?" Moroha asked. "Well, it can be accessed through some underground passages all around here and the rest of Mexico, but, I must warn you two, while it is somewhat easy for living beings to enter the Land of the Dead, it's almost impossible for them to get out, unless they got someone that has access to ways back up to the Land of the Living, otherwise they'll slowly turn into skeletons and then be trapped in the Land of the Dead forever!" Sartana warned.

"You think your Portal gun thing can help on that front?" Moroha asked Futaba. "It could, but we might need a guide for the Land of the Dead, so that we don't get lost!" Futaba said. "In that case, let me be your guide! After all, my Grandmother is the one who got banished from Land of the Dead and not me, mostly because I wasn't even born at the time!" Django suggested. "Very well then." Futaba said.

Meanwhile...

The Rivera men arrived at the museum, with a big smoking hole in it's side. "Holy Chalupa!" Manny said as Frida caught up to them, panting in exhaustion. "You guys seriously couldn't just bring me along with ya?!" Frida asked in annoyance and exhaustion. "Sorry, Frida." Manny and his dad said as a man was tossed out of the museum, he was beaten up, but Frida immediately recognized him. "Dad?" Frida asked in shock as she rushed over. "*Groan!* Frida? What are you doing out here?" Chief Emiliano Suárez, Frida's father and chief of the Miracle City Police Department, asked in obvious pain. "Chief Suarez, are you okay? What happened?" Manny asked. "I responded to a silent alarm, but when I came here, I was met with some things that aren't human!" Emiliano said. "Technically, that's not entirely true." Stephano said as he, Akuji, and Shibogumon in their Rider forms, Akuji using the Al Capone Damashii stepped out of the museum.

"Who are you three?" Manny asked. "Kamen Rider Armadeiras." Shibogumon said. "Kamen Rider Mortem." Akuji said. "And Kamen Rider Weather." Stephano said. "Kamen Rider? What kind of a title is that?" Frida asked in confusion. "I learned a little bit of Japanese from the Seventh Samurai, if I remember correctly, Kamen means either Mask or Masked." Mr. Rivera noted. "That would explain the helmets! But, what about the 'Rider' part of their title?" Frida asked in confusion. "Kamen Riders traditionally have some kind of motor vehicle, traditionally some kind of Motorcycle." Shibogumon explained. "Then, where are your motorcycles?" Frida asked, making the three Dark Riders flinch sheepishly. "To be honest, we don't actually have motorcycles, mostly because it slipped our minds!" Stephano admitted. 'Note to self, make custom motorcycles for ourselves to ride on whenever we're not in our Vectors!' Stephano mentally noted. "But we do have jets that can combine into a giant robot!" Akuji noted. "Okay, I guess that seems cool!" Manny noted.

"But what are you weirdos even doing here?" He asked. "They're...trying...to steal...the strange...medallions." Emiliano said through the pain. That made the Rivera Men and Frida gasp in shock. "You see strange medallions, our associates see the lifelines of very powerful warriors." Stephano said as the Animarius soldiers that the came with exited the museum with the Soul Cores. "Holy Chalupa!" Manny and Frida exclaimed in shock. "If you want to walk out of here with those medallions, you're going to have to go through..." Mr. Rivera said, striking a dramatic pose. "WHITE PANTERA!" He announced. "And..." Manny said, spinning the buckle on his belt. That made him instantly transform into his tiger-themed costumed alter-ego. "EL TIGRE!" Manny announced with his claws out.

The old man shrugged before entering his sombrero which then transformed into a mech suit. "Puma Loco!" He called while Frida randomly did the little song and dance she did in Episode 1A of the cartoon series, 'Sole of a Hero'. "Oh, so you three are Puma Loco, White Pantera, and El Tigre? Perfect!" Stephano said as the Flock of Fury dropped down. "They've been waiting for you." He said. "Oh, right, I forgot that's why we came here." Manny admitted. "So, White Pantera, ready for our big surprise, like the time I've suddenly broke up with you?" Voltura asked. "Um, actually I broke up with you, not the other way around!" White Pantera reminded, much Voltura's fury. "AS IF I COULD FORGET!" Voltura yelled angrily. "Or how you left me at the altar!" Lady Gobbler told Puma Loco. "Or how you used me as a secret informant!" Black Cuervo told Manny.

"*Chuckle!* Sorry!" Puma Loco said. "Okay, I get it, Black Cuervo! I'm sorry! I really shouldn't have played with your feelings like that back then! Even my Dad didn't approve of what I've done!" Manny said shamefully. "Well now, thanks to our new friends, we have the perfect tools for revenge!" Black Cuervo said as she, her mother, and Grandmother strapped GaiaRisers to their waists and pulled out Gaia Memories. The one Black Cuervo was holding was a purple Gaia Memory with the capital letter 'R', modeled after a Raven, in center and the word 'Raven' above it, the one that Voltura was holding was a green Gaia Memory with the capital letter 'V', modeled after a Vulture in flight, in its center and the word 'Vulture' above it, and the one that Lady Gobbler was holding was an orange Gaia Memory with the capital letter 'T', modeled after a Turkey with its tail feathers fanned out, in its center and the word 'Turkey' above it.

"Your plan for vengeance involves weird looking belts and USB sticks?" Frida asked in confusion. "Quiet, little girl! This does not concern you!" Lady Gobbler said. "Uh, yes, it does! Manny here is my bestest friend in the whole wide world, and I really love to follow him everywhere he goes! Of course, this doesn't necessarily mean that we're couple, although I did kiss him in the lips once after that incident with the Riveras' items being confiscated!" Frida said. "You... Did... WHAT?!" Black Cuervo asked angrily after hearing about Frida kissing Manny. "Oh, this just got juicy!" Shibogumon said as Black Cuervo turned to Stephano. "How do you use these things?" She asked. "First you click that button on the side of the memory." Stephano instructed as Cuervo did so.

Raven!

"Okay... Now what?" Black Cuervo asked. "Now you open up the mouth of the serpent on your right of the GaiaRiser, insert the memory, and close the mouth." Stephano instructed. "Okay?" Black Cuervo said as she then did what was instructed.

Raven! GaiaRise!

At that moment, black ethereal feathers appeared and enveloped Black Cuervo as she morphed into an adult female avian humanoid with huge breasts, large wings on her back, wing feathers spread out on her arms, long talons on her fingers and feet, two shoulder armor modeled the head of a Raven, and a purple horned mask covering her avian humanoid head. "What the?" Manny and Frida asked. "Our turn!" Lady Gobbler said as she and Voltura did the same.

Vulture!
Turkey!
GaiaRise!

At that moment, Voltura morphed into a female humanoid Vulture with six wings (two on the back, two attached to the arms, and two attached to the hips) and long talons on her fingers and feet while Lady Gobbler morphed into a female Turkey-themed avian humanoid with fanned out turkey tail feathers on her back in addition to her wings as well as having talons on her fingers and feet. "Huh, that is new." White Pantera said. "Yes, I can feel it, incredible power and, ooh, these are a nice touch." Black Cuervo said, noticing her chest. "Aw, come on, no fair! I'm only just beginning to barely develop there!" Frida complained, looking down her shirt discreetly. "I'm not even wearing a training bra." She muttered. Black Cuervo laughed. "Sucks to be you!" She said, tossing a feather at Frida, only for it to be shot down by a miniature star. "What?! Who Dares to Interfere?!" Black Cuervo asked angrily. "I do!" A voice called as an Alebrije matching the description of the one Frida saw in her vision flew down. "An Alebrije?! In this world?!" Stephano asked in shock.

"You know what that cat/bird/fish thing is?!" Voltura asked. "From the land, an Ocelot, the sky a Common Starling, the sea, a Marine Betta, I am the Alebrije of Stars, Callocelotarling!" Callocerlotarling announced. Everyone looked at the Alebrije in confusion. "You're a what now?" Frida asked in confusion. "Alebrije, we are a race of Guardian Spirits with incredible powers." Callocelotarling explained. "Strange, the only Alebrije we've heard of and encountered before is the Alebrije Monster and it looks absolutely nothing like you!" Manny said as he pulled out a picture profile of the Alebrije Monster, which was a huge red monster with sharp teeth, four eyes, six tentacles for arms, three long legs, ears shaped like fish fins, a pair of blue curled horns on top of its head, a small whip-like tail, and a short moustache with a goatee. "I have no idea what that thing is but it's nothing like the Alebrijes I know." Callocelotarling said.

"Really?" Manny and Frida asked. "Yes, really!" Callocelotarling said. "Huh, well, you're actually kind of cute, Callo-Callo-" Frida said, struggling to pronounce the Alebrije's name. "You mind if we just call you Callie or something?" She asked. "I guess Callie is fine by me!" Callocelotarling noted. "It doesn't matter how many of you there are, now that I know you kissed him, I'm going to get back at you as well!" Black Cuervo told Frida. She then swooped down towards Frida and then furiously attacked her with her talons. Manny then launched his right hand like a chain at the Raven Dopant. That caused Black Cuervo to get knocked away. "Frida! Are you okay?!" Manny asked in concern. "*Groan!* Aside from the scratches and the clothing damage, I'm okay!" Frida answered as there were scratches on her face, arms, legs, and stomach while there were some tears on her white shirt and red skirt. "Too bad Lunastura isn't here, she's an Alebrije with the ability to heal any non mortal wound." Callocelotarling noted.

"What about you, Callie? What abilities do you have?" Frida asked. "Well, my abilities are conjuring miniature stars that can use as projectiles, producing bright lights to blind enemies or help people see in the dar, and also create three-dimensional constructs of various constellations!" Callocelotarling said. "Cool." Frida said as she watched Manny and the others do battle against the three Avian Dopants. "Sometimes I wish there was some way I could join them." Frida said. "I'm just going to pretend I didn't hear that." Emiliano said. "Not helping, Dad." Frida said before noticing a bright light shining from under her goggles. "Huh?" Frida asked in confusion. Removing the goggles, she saw that it was the gemstone she found glowing.

Meanwhile...

AkaRed was in the shrine beneath the temple when he noticed a portal opening up amongst the Lucharanger statues. "Nani?" AkaRed exclaimed in confusion. The gemstone then shot beams at Frida and Callocellotarling before shattering revealing a Celeste colored Lucha Changer with Star patterns on it that immediately attached itself to Frida's wrist. "What in the world?" Frida asked in confusion. Before ringing the bell once out of curiosity. At once, a bright flash of light shone from the Lucha Changer.

Morphing Sequence

Frida was standing in the middle of a wrestling ring with a symbol consisting of Star Patterns on the ground as electricity transformed her outfit into a Celeste-colored version of the female Lucharangers' uniform. Callocelotarling then meowed as she descended onto Frida's head, transforming into a helmet resembling her head with Frida's signature goggles on top. At the shrine, a statue depicting said Lucharanger rose up out of the portal. "A new Lucharanger has been born already? I wonder where she is!" AkaRed wondered.

With Futaba and Moroha...

"So this is the Land of the Dead, huh?" Futaba said as he and Moroha were being lead through said land by Django. "Correcto! Everything that's populated in this afterlife, from people to animals, are undead sentient skeletons!" Django said they were passing by a town that's populated by human skeletons of all ages. "Well this is definitely the right place." Futaba said, noticing the feather encased in amber glowing brightly before he and Moroha heard music playing. "Wait, Moroha, do you hear that?" Futaba asked. "I do, it sounds like music, but not just any music." He said in realization. "The Soul Transmission Song!" They both recognized. They all then headed towards the direction of music, all the way to a medium-sized cave. Eventually coming across a spirit playing music they both recognized immediately. "Otoha!" They both said before nodding as Moroha pulled out a fruit from the Tree of Life while Futaba shattered the Amber encasing the feather before inserting it into the fruit.

That caused the spirit to be sucked up into the fruit, right before it swelled up and then burst open, revealing a female humanoid angel with four differently colored eyes (the upper right one being purple, the upper left one being green, the lower right one being blue, and the lower left one being yellow), having white feathery wings attached to her arms, and having a serpentine tail instead of legs, who's wearing a long, purple dress with a dark purple cloth on her head. She gasped and started coughing at the sudden experience before realizing that she was alive once more. "I'm... Alive?!" She asked in shock. "You are." Futaba said as Otoha turned to see Kamen Riders Tetra and Chaeta. "Who are you two?" Otoha asked, not recognizing them in their Rider forms. "Friends." Futaba said as he and Moroha removed their helmets. "Futaba?! Moroha?! But, I thought you both died!" Otoha said in shock and confusion. "We did, but thanks to some new friends of Futaba, the Shadow Angels live again!" Moroha said.

"Really?" Otoha asked. "So does that mean Johannes, Lensi, Shila, Golshi..." Otoha said. "All waiting for you back in our new base of operations." Moroha said. "Even Toma?" Otoha asked, making the two Dark Riders flinch. "Yeah, about that..." Futaba said. He and Moroha then explained to Otoha about Toma's sacrifice to prevent the Earth from being destroyed after the death of the original Tree of Life, followed by his reincarnation into Mikage Towano and his evil plot to destroy both the planets Altair and Vega in an act of obtaining godhood and getting revenge against love itself after finding out that Apollo was really the reincarnation of the Winged Hound Pollen and not Apollonius like he had thought, and then told her about his defeat and being imprisoned within the body of Zen Fudo, the real reincarnation of Apollonius, as well as how Mikage ended up turning good after the last two years within Zen's body and even refused to go along with Futaba's plans of revenge. "I see, so in the end, he still chose to be with that traitor." Otoha said, tears falling down her face.

"Unfortunately!" Futaba said. "I'm sorry, Otoha, we all know how much he meant to you." Moroha said. Just then, Django noticed something in the cave that Otoha was in and walked towards it before finding a pair of disembodied wings covered in pure white feathers. "Could it be? These look just like the wings my Grandmother says she used to have before she got banished!" Django said. That made the three Shadow Angels look at him in confusion. "It's a long story, I have to get these to her!" Django said. "By the way, I'm Django of the Dead, pleasure to meet you, Senorita Otoha! I'm the one who helped guided your friends here to find you" He said to Otoha with a tip from his hat. "Oh! I see! Nice to meet you!" Otoha said. "Anyway, I believe need to get back to the Land of the Living right away, and not just to prevent yourselves from turning into skeletons and being stuck here forever!" Django said. "What do you mean by that?" Futaba asked. "The Land of the Dead is really the part of a bigger afterlife realm known as the Land of the Remembered, which so happens be ruled over by my Great Grandmother La Muerte! She, at most times, goes to the Land of the Living and back whenever she pleases, and, if she's in this realm right now, she'll probably sense my presence here, and with what we're doing here right now, especially since I found my Grandmother's severed wings, I don't it's wise to stick around here much longer!" Django said.

"Good call." Futaba said, pulling out the Portal Gun and setting it to outside Sartana's hideout. "By the way, what's with the armor?" Otoha asked Futaba and Moroha. "My friends will help explain it better." Futaba said, firing the gun, opening a portal. Afterwards, the four entered the portal, with Sartana's severed wings carried by Django, right back to Sartana's Lair. When Futaba heard beeping. "Hold on." He said, tapping his wrist, allowing a hologram of Kamen Rider Weather to appear. "Futaba, did you find her?" Stephano asked. "Yep, everything's good on our end." Futaba said. "Good, because we seem to have hit an unexpected snag here." Stephano said as they all looked at Frida still looking confused at what the Lucha Changer did to her. "What's happening? Why am I wearing this getup? Where's Callie?!" Frida asked in a panic. "I'm here, but it seems that I've transformed into the helmet, which is honestly quite distressing to me!" Callocelotarling said in worry.

"Woah, Frida, what happened to you?" Mr. Rivera asked, dodging the Vulture Dopant's attack. "I don't know! All I know is one minute that gem I found was glowing, then it shattered revealing this thing that attached to my wrist, I rang the bell on it out of curiosity, then woosh, I'm in Spandex!" Frida said. "And I've been turned into her helmet for some odd reason!" Callocelotarling added. "Allow me to explain." Shibogumon said, attacking Frida, who quickly blocked. "To put it simply, you've been transformed into a Lucharanger, one of a very annoying group of humans who have partnered with Alebrijes to fight both us, our friends over there, and a race of demons called the Pecadiablos." He explained. "What? But the Pecadiablos were all supposed to have been sealed away 10,000 years ago!" Callocelotarling said. "You know what these Pecadiablos are, Callie?" Frida asked in confusion.

"They're a race of demons who's leaders are based off the 7 Deadly Sins of Pride, Lust, Greed, Envy, Sloth, Gluttony, and Wrath. 10,000 years ago, my people, the Alebrije, worked with a sorcerer named Magigo Virtuud to seal them away in a Dark Box, with Magigo casting a spell on it so that if anyone pure of heart were to touch it, it would be instantly opened, so he buried the box in a temple deep underground." Callocelotarling explained. "Something tells me that it didn't stay hidden forever, did it?" Frida asked. "Apparently not!" Callocelotarling said in annoyance. "And you're saying there are people dressed like this fighting them?" Frida asked. "Yes, but they're not from around here!" Shibogumon said. "Dang!" Frida complained. "So this is the little hitch you told us about." Futaba said as everyone looked up to see him, Moroha, both still in their rider forms, and Otoha. "Who are you three?" Manny asked in confusion.

"We are members of the illustrious Shadow Angel race." Johannes said as he and the other Shadow Angels arrived through a portal. "I'm the Elder Angel Johannes!" Johannes said. "I'm the Archetypical Angel Lensi!" Lensi said. "I'm the Information Angel Shila, and he is the Preternatural Strength Angel Golshi!" Shila said while pointing at Golshi, who growled in response. "I'm the Child Angel Futaba, also known as Kamen Rider Tetra!" Futaba said. "I'm the Warrior Angel Moroha, also known as Kamen Rider Chaeta!" Moroha said. "And I'm the Musical Angel Otoha!" Otoha said. "And I must say it is wonderful to see all of you again." Otoha told the others. "Likewise, Otoha!" Lensi said. "I even remade Cherubim Sur le Kubera to celebrate your revival." He said, as a portal opened up, allowing Cherubim Sur le Kubera, a beautiful-looking Cherubim with two metallic side skirts on its hips, a pair of feet shaped like high heel shoes, and a pair of twin tail-like structures on its head with a queen's crown-like structure between them, to drop down.

"Nice to see your talents haven't dampened over time, Lensi." Otoha said. "If anything, they've improved, trust me." Futaba said. Of course, the Rivera Men dropped their jaws in shock at the sight of the Cherubim Soldier. "Holy Chalupa, that thing's taller than El Mal Verde!" Manny said. "You can say that again, Manuel!" Puma Loco said. "Did somebody mention me?!" A deep booming voice asked a humongous giant with green skin, a brown moustache, eyebrows, and goatee, yellow eyes with red irises, a black nose, gnarly uneven teeth, black claws on his left hand, and a black robotic right arm ending in a spiked iron mace, who's wearing a black sombrero, a black vest over a white short-sleeved shirt, two bullet belts across his chest, a pair of horizontal striped brown-and white pants held by a skull-themed belt, and a pair of black cowboy boots with spurs, came stomping onto the scene with a wicked grin. "Oh crud." Frida said.

"Speaking of the devil, it's El Mal Verde." Manny said in annoyance. "I was just around the neighborhood, getting ready to do a little crime spree, when I heard all the commotion and saw that giant robot thing dropping from the sky, so I thought I'd come here see what's going on!" The giant, identified as El Mal Verde, said. "Hey..." Frida said, removing her helmet. "You're not still mad about the book thing, are you?" She asked nervously as El Mal Verde approached her and Manny before Flicking them with his fingers, sending them flying. "I'll take that as a yes!" Frida said as she and Manny flew through the portal the other Shadow Angels previously walked through. "MANNY!" White Pantera and Puma Loco shouted in horror. "FRIDA!" Emiliano shouted in equal horror. "Oh, this just got interesting. Cicadeath, Flygor, there's intruders in the castle, shut the portal down and capture them before they try to escape!" Futaba told the two Insects over the comm link.

"Our thoughts exactly!" Cicadeath and Flygor said as they went to the Dimension Gate and then turned it off, resulting in the portal completely disappearing immediately. "Uh oh." White Pantera, Puma Loco, and Emiliano said before the villains all surrounded them.

With Manny and Frida...

"Oh, my head, you alright Frida?" Manny asked. "Fine, what about you, Callie?" Frida asked. "I'm okay, thanks for asking!" Callocelotarling answered. "You won't be for long!" Cicadeath said as he, Flygor, and some Neo-Lizardons surrounded the two. "Back off, punks!" Frida said as she suddenly produced a bright light that blinded Cicadeath, Flygor and messed with the Neo-Lizardons' vision. "MY EYES!" Cicadeath and Flygor yelled in pain. "Quick, let's scram!" Manny said as he and Frida ran away. "Get them!" Cicadeath and Flygor called. "Dang, Callie, that was a bright light." Frida told Callocelotarling. "Uh, that wasn't me. In fact, it looked more like it came from you." The Alebrije of Stars said. "You really think so, Callie?" Frida asked in surprise, right before she and Manny accidentally bumped into General Tyrannus, who quickly noticed the two kids. "Uh Oh!" Manny and Frida said. "And where do you think you intruders are going?" Tyrannus asked. "Uh, oh look, a giant meteor heading straight towards us!" Frida said, pointing up. "Seriously? That's the best distraction you can think of? Kid, we're indoors, and I came to this planet long after that event." Tyrannus said. "Oh, well, eat this!" Frida said, shooting a barrage of stars at the T-Rex Animarius, sending him back.

"Nice one, Frita!" Manny said. However, General Tyrannus was still alive and very unhappy. "Nobody makes a fool out of me and lives!" General Tyrannus declared as he brought out two fruits from the Tree of Life and two Soul Cores, one having the image of a Muzquizopteryx (a species of Pterosaur) in flight and the other one having the image of a Stegouros (an ankylosaur species with a flat armored bladed tail resembling a Macuahuitl), before inserting the latter objects into the former ones. That caused the two fruits to swell up and then burst open to reveal two new Animarius soldiers who both have the symbol of the Dinosaur Army on their left shoulders, with one of them being a male humanoid Muzquizopteryx with wings on his back and wearing a conquistador's helmet and armor while carrying a halberd and a buckler (a small, round or oval shield usually of wood or metal covered with leather) in his hands, and the other one being a male humanoid Stegouros wearing a male Aztec warrior's feathered helmet and armor while carrying to large Macuahuitls in his hands. The two nervously chuckled before running. "Muzquizodor, Stegourhuitl, get them!" Tyrannus ordered. "At once, General Tyrannus!" The two Dinosaur Animarius, now named Muzquizodor and Stegourhuitl, replied as they ran after Manny and Frida.

"Oh, great! Now we're being chased by dinosaurs that we don't even recognize! Can this day get any worse?!" Frida asked before she and Manny skidded into a halt as they were confronted by a Latino man with smooth hair and moustache with a goatee who's wearing the Inverso Mafia uniform and already having a GaiaRiser strapped to his waist. "I think it just did, Frida!" Manny said. "So, you two must be the intruders that we've alerted about! Allow me to introduce myself! I'm Andrés Aguilar, but you two can call me, the Eagle Dopant!" The gangster, named Andrés Aguilar, said as he then pulled out a Crimson-colored Gaia Memory with the capital letter 'E', modeled after an Eagle in flight, in its center and the word 'Eagle' above it. Andrés then pressed the button on his Gaia Memory.

Eagle!

Andrés then loaded the Eagle Gaia Memory into the right serpent head of his GaiaRiser.

Eagle! GaiaRise!

As soon as that happened, Andrés was engulfed in crimson energy eagle feathers as the transformed into a muscular male Crimson-colored Avian humanoid with Eagle characteristics as well as having a third eye in the middle of his Eagle-like head, two Eagle head-shaped decorations above his shoulders, razor-sharp talons on his fingers and feet, and having the total of ten wings (four wings attached to his back, two wings attached to his arms, two wings attached to the ends of his shoulders, and two more wings attached to his hips). "You don't scare us, bird brain!" Frida declared. "You should be!" The Eagle Dopant as he then shot out a barrage of razor-sharp eagle feathers at Manny and Frida. Suddenly, a figure dashed in and rescued Manny And Frida unseen by the Dopant or dinosaur Animarius. "What the heck was that?" Stegourhuitl asked in confusion.

"I don't know, but we can't let them get away!" The Eagle Dopant said as he and the Animarius ran in another direction before Tytus came out of the shadows carrying Manny and Frida. "Dang, that was a close one! Thanks, Owl Lady!" Manny said. Tytus shhed Manny. "It is imperative no one knows I rescued you kids." Tytus said. "Why not?" Frida asked quietly. "Because my mother is a high ranking general here, and we are planning something big that until it goes into effect, all involvement must remain a secret!" Tytus explained. "Ohhhhh, right! Sorry!" Frida said. Tytus then fired a portal gun, opening a portal. "That portal leads to the city of Royal Woods, Michigan, once there, search for Kamen Riders LL, Jewel, Anansi, Neo-Decade, and Neo-OOO, they, along with their allies the Alebrije Sentai Lucharanger, and Alchemeister, will be able to help stop the plight your world is likely going through right now." Tytus explained.

"Wait, there are heroic Kamen Riders here?" Manny asked. "Oh yes, the ones you met were what's known as Dark Riders, Kamen Riders who use the name and powers for evil." Tytus explained. "That would explain a lot of things!" Frida noted. "Yes, now go, hurry before they see me helping you!" Tytus said, looking around making sure no one was watching. "No need to tell us twice!" Manny said as he and Frida jumped through the portal. Soon arriving in an alleyway in Royal Woods. "Okay, so we just need to find the good Kamen Riders, explain to them what's happening, and they should be able to help us!" Manny said. "The Owl lady said that they were allied with those Lucharanger guys that Armadeiras guy mentioned, so maybe they'll be able to help me with this!" Frida said, gesturing to the spandex suit she was still wearing. "How am I even supposed to get this thing off?" She asked, messing with the Changer before pushing a button that reverted her back to her normal clothes and Callocelotarling back to her normal self. "Well that answers that question." Frida said.

"Thank goodness I'm back to normal and can move around again!" Callocelotarling said in relief. "You know, you actually looked pretty cool wearing that." Manny admitted. "Wait, really? Ya think so?" Frida asked in surprise. "Yeah, that shade of blue-" Manny said. "Celeste." Callocelotarling said. "Huh?" Manny and Frida asked. "My color is Celeste." Callocelotarling said. "Right, well, you looked awesome in it." Manny said. That caused Frida to start giggling and blushing at that. "Oh, Stop, Manny! You're making me blush!" Frida said bashfully. "Well..." Manny said, reverting to his normal outfit. "What do we do first?" He asked. "I'm sensing Vularena and Phoelacandra in this city." Callocelotarling said. "Who and who, now?" Manny asked in confusion. "The Alebrijes of Spirit and Alchemy." Callocelotarling explained. "Their respective colors are Amber and Vermillion! Appearance-wise, Vularena is 1/3 Spotted Hyena, 1/3 Griffon Vulture, and 1/3 African Sharptooth Catfish while Phoelacandra is 1/3 Fire Salamander, 1/3 Phoenix, 1/3 Coelacanth!" She added.

"You guys certainly are some strange, yet oddly adorable sounding creatures." Frida said. "You guys certainly are some strange, yet oddly adorable sounding creatures." Frida said. "You should meet Lunastura, who's 1/3 Rabbit, 1/3 Lunar Moth, and 1/3 Lake Sturgeon, or Kitsunagikiri, who's 1/3 Nine Tailed Fox, 1/3 Asian Long-Horned Beetle, and 1/3 Japanese Eel." Callocelotarling said. "And, what exactly are their titles?" Manny asked in confusion. "Lunastura is known as the Alebrije of the Moon while Kitsunagikiri is known as the Alebrije of Auroras!" Callocelotarling said. "Of course, the males of my species are nice as well, case in point my older brother, the Alebrije of Speed Sweetarlin, who's 1/3 King Cheetah, 1/3 Common Swift, and 1/3 Black Marlin." She added. "Black Marlin?" Frida asked in confusion. "It's basically a relative of the more recognizable Swordfish!" Callocelotarling said.

"Then there's Kitsunagakir's boyfriend, the Alebrije of the Sun, Magnifalcougar, who's 1/3 Cougar, 1/3 Peregrine Falcon, and 1/3 Fire Goby, and Lunastura's boyfriend, the Alebrije of Illusions, Tanugatanta, who's 1/3 Japanese Racoon Dog, 1/3 Stag Beetle, and 1/3 Manta Ray." She added. "How many of you guys are there?" Frida asked. "A literal world full." Callocelotarling said. "Yeesh!" Manny and Frida said. "Yeah." Callocelotarling said. "So, where do you sense them?" Frida asked. "Somewhere in that direction, towards that house over there!" Callocelotarling said while pointing in the direction of the Loud Residence. "Well, why don't you go and find them, maybe they can help us find those people the Owl Lady told us to find?" Frida suggested. "That's a good idea and all, but where would you two be going?" Callocelotarling asked.

"Uh, you know, that's a really good question! Where can we go in the meantime?" Frida asked in confusion. "Here's an idea! You're going nowhere, that's what!" Muzquizodor declared as he, Stegourhuitl, and the Eagle Dopant appeared behind a bush, much to the shock of Manny and Frida. "What?! How did you three find us so quickly?!" Manny asked in shock. "We used the computer in the throne room to track you down, we don't know how you got out so easily, but you aren't going anywh-" The Eagle Dopant said before getting zapped by lightning from behind. "YEOW! Who zapped me?!" The Eagle Dopant asked angrily. "Ahem!" A voice called as everyone looked to see Lincoln, Sakura, both in their electricity based forms, Clyde, Shintomaru, Edge, Aya, Azalee, and Aden, all transformed. "Holy Chalupa!" Manny and Frida exclaimed in surprise.

"A Dopant and two Animarius from Tyrannus' army, a little small compared to what King Draco has been sending out lately." Sakura noted. "Though, what kind of creatures are those two supposed to based on?" Clyde asked, pointing at Muzquizodor and Stegourhuitl. "From the looks of it, they're based off the Muzquizopteryx, which was a species of Pterosaur whose fossils were found in the chalk quarry of El Rosario, and a Stegouros, a recently discovered species of Ankylosaur identifiable by it's flat bladed tail resembling a Macuahuitl, which was a club used by the Aztecs, Olmecs, Mayans, Mixtecs, Toltecs, and Tarascans." Lisa said over the communicator. "The Macuahuitl was lined with pieces of Obsidian, a hard, dark glasslike Volcanic Rock formed by the rapid solidification of Lava without crystalization." She added.

"On a side note, in real life, the Muzquizopteryx is very small in size for a Pterosaur, with a wingspan of around 2 meters, while the Stegouros is relatively small compared to other ankylosaurs, with its body length measuring only at about 2 meters!" Lisa said, making the heroes chuckle a little bit. "Well either way, I don't know what kind of game you three are playing, but it ends right now!" Lincoln said. "Oh, it'll end, alright, With Your Deaths!" Stegourhuitl declared before charging at the heroes and then slashed at them with his twin Macuahuitls and his flat bladed, causing significant damage to their bodies. "Did I mention Obsidian is rather sharp? Reportedly 500 times more than steel?" Lisa asked. "*Groan!* No, you did not, Lis! Owww!" Lincoln replied in pain. "My bad." Lisa said as Aden tapped one of the symbols on the Ouroblade. "Quicksilver on!" He called, taking on his mercury based form.

"Did you just see that, Manny?" Frida asked. "I did." Manny said. "Hey, what do you say we suit up and give them a hand, then explain everything." Frida suggested, pointing to her Lucha Changer. "Might as well!" Manny said. "Ah man, does this mean I'm going to have to change into a helmet again?" Callocelotarling asked. "Sorry, Callie." Frida said as Manny spun his belt buckle while Frida rang the bell on her changer, allowing the two to change into their alter egos. "Holy Shamoly! Who are you two?!" Lincoln asked. "El Tigre!" Manny called. "And...uh...dang it, I'm just realizing I haven't thought of a name for this!" Frida said. "Well, you're clearly a Lucharanger like us, although I'm a little confused as to how this is happening, and we just go for a combination of the word 'Lucha' and the colors of our Alebrije partners and suits." Aya pointed out. "Really? It's that simple?" Frida asked. "Yeah, the fact that we're part of a superhero team is part of that reason!" Azalee said. "Although one member has magnet powers and he's called LuchaMagnet, leading us to constantly inform people of the existence of a color called 'Magnet'." Aya said.

"Oh, I see! In that case, call me LuchaCeleste!" Frida announced. "Question, what kind of color is Celeste?" Aurachnid asked in confusion. "A pale Turquoise Blue." Lisa said. "In fact, the word Celeste, meaning "of the sky", is used in Spanish, Portuguese and Italian for the color known as Sky Blue!" She added. "Celeste...wait a minute, Callocelotarling, is that you?" Vularena asked. "Yes! It is me, Vularena!" Callocelotarling confirmed. "I am so weirded out, this girl found some stone that contained some sort of device that when she rang the bell, it turned me into a helmet!" Callocelotarling. "A Lucha Stone!" Aya realized. "We'll explain everything later, but for now, we need to take care of these punks!" Pheolacandra said. "Oh, right, of course!" Frida said. "By the way, I can see auras, and from yours, I can see you're 13 years old, right?" Aya asked. "Yeah, so what about it?" Frida asked in confusion. "Well, my family knows this recipe for a magic potion that if you're interested, can take you from that..." Aya said, pointing to Frida, specifically her chest. "...to that!" She said, pointing to Sakura, specifically her chest.

That made Frida drop her jaw within her helmet in shock. "Dang, that would look really good on me!" Frida noted. "And since I can also tell from your aura that you've had feelings for him for a while now..." Aya said, pointing to Manny who was helping Lincoln fight the Eagle Dopant. "...you're hoping it might help you there." She said. That made Frida blush brightly. Making Aya chuckle. Only for her to be struck at the stomach by Muzquizodor's halberd, greatly injuring her. "You should have seen that one coming, Amber girl!" Muzquizodor said. "Hey!" Frida said. "Not cool!" She said before summoning a construct based on the Constellation Leo that instantly pounced on Muzquizodor. "Hey! Get off of me!" Muzquizodor complained. "What the heck was that?" Edge asked in confusion. "Callocelotarling is the Alebrije of Stars, one of her abilities allows her to summon constructs based off of Constellations." Pheolacandra explained as Sakura rushed over and used her Haato no Hikari powers to heal Aya.

"Mind if we help?" Andros and Phixia asked as they flew into the scene. "Nice timing, Andros-kun, Phixia-chan!" Sakura said as she finished healing Aya. "Daijobu, Aya-chan?" She asked. "*Groan!* I'm fine now, thanks!" Aya said. "Hey, I dare you both to try and hurt me with those weapons of yours!" Andros told the two Animarius. "Just who are you challenge us?" Muzquizodor asked. "Why don't you come and see for yourself?" Andros asked. "Okay, you asked for it!" Stegourhuitl said as they charged and slammed all three of their weapons into Andros...only for them to break into thousands of pieces on impact! "WHAT?!" Muzquizodor asked in shock. "But How?!" Stegourhuitl asked in confusion. "The only Animarius with hide that strong should be General Leo!" Muzquizodor said. "Oh, you mean..." Andros said, unsheathing his knuckle blades. "...my father?" He asked, attacking them with the blades.

"Since when did Andros-kun have impenetrable skin, especially since he got injured a few times before?" Sakura asked in confusion. "I don't know! And now that you've mentioned it, the hair on top of his head looks bigger and spikier, kind of like the hair on Goku's Super Saiyan form mixed with an actual Lion's mane!" Shintomaru said upon noticing Andros's head hair looking a lot bigger and spikier than usual, like a really spiked up Lion's mane. "Not only that, but look at his arm and leg muscles and abs!" Edge said upon realizing that Andros's arms and legs had some visible muscle on them and his stomach has a visible six-pack abs. "In fact, the only things that hasn't changed about him are his voice and his face!" He added. "Wait a minute, Andros, did my cousin Nyansipo give you potion earlier today?" Aya asked Andros, who then stopped what he was doing before chuckling. "Okay, you caught me! Nyansipo gave a new and improved version of the same potion that Gremlock sabotaged, which includes both the Pomegranate Juice that was originally intended for it and the Cranberry Juice that Gremlock switched it out with! Plus, after some tests on some rats, which the effects were temporary on, he realized that the real reason why the effects were temporary in the first place was because, sabotaged or not, the potion needed one more ingredient in order to be completed!" Andros explained sheepishly. "And what new ingredient did he use?" Aya asked. "Blueberries! Well, Pureed Blueberries to be exact! So, after he got all the ingredients, including the Pureed Blueberries, mixed into one hollowed out calabash, marked with the blue-colored Mars symbol to avoid confusion with the Beauty Enhancement Potion, in order to properly test it out, well, he gave to me, since my sister and I were visiting him with our lovers and I'm the only one present with powers, plus he had only made one potion at the moment, and well, I really do like the results! Not only did my hide became impenetrable like General Leo's, but I gained a moderate amount of muscle on my arms and legs..." Andros said while flexing one of his arms. "As well as a set of six-pack abs!" He added while pointing at his abs. "Heck, the hair on top of my head grew into a really big and spikey anime hero-styled Lion's mane, which, I admit looks really cool on me!" Andros said while flicking his hair around in the air. "Wait, if Nyansipo's potion includes the Cranberry Juice, does that mean your, uh, 'frank and beans' are...?" Aya asked nervously, making Andros blush a little bit. "Yeah, they're bigger, though, because I'm ten, they're, thankfully, not as big as Cianán's, in fact, they might be around the same size as those of Edge and Shintomaru! And, yes, it did come with the same permanent side effects as the sabotaged potion, as in the one that prevents voice changes and the one that prevents facial and body hair growth, though, thankfully, Lion manes don't count, not to mention that Duafe likes my voice and face the way it is! Plus, apparently, there are other effects of that potion, that Nyansipo figured out through his aura reading powers, most of which having in common with the Beauty Enhancement Potion, specifically weight loss, acne prevention, scoliosis prevention, diabetes prevention, old age prevention, and cancer prevention, which includes testicular cancer in the case of boys! By the way, I usually wear a toga as my outfit in battle, but right now, because I was wearing casual clothes earlier today and I accidentally ripped my shirt after I drank the potion, I'm wearing just jeans shorts at the moment!" Andros admitted while blushing. "You and Duafe didn't do anything frisky together after drinking that potion, if you know what I mean?" Aya asked, making Andros blush a little more. "Of Course Not! Besides, my girlfriend and have I better control over herself than that, not to mention that neither one of us are quite ready to go that far into our relationship just yet!" Andros said.

"So many questions, not really enough time!" Frida said. "She's right, Mecha Pollon!" Lincoln called. At that moment, Mecha-Pollon came flying into the scene in a matter of seconds. "You guys have a robot dog with wings? That's so cool!" Frida said. "Trinity Buster!" Lincoln called as Mecha Pollon transformed and was caught by Lincoln, Sakura, and Clyde. "A robot dog with wings that can transform into a cannon? Even cooler!" Frida said. "Sealing Blast!" Lincoln called, pulling the trigger. "Uh Oh!" Muzquizodor and Stegourhuitl said as the blast hit them both, causing both Dinosaur Animarius soldiers to explode and then revert back into Soul Cores. "A robot dog with wings that transforms into a cannon that can obliterate your foes? Coolest!" Frida said as Lincoln picked up and sealed the Soul Cores. "This isn't over, riders!" The Eagle Dopant said, pulling out a Kaiju Memory.

Kaiju!

Before placing it in the mouth of the left serpent head of his GaiaRiser.

Eagle! Kaiju! GaiaVolve!

Once that happened, the Eagle Dopant crossed his arms and wings over himself as his entire form got engulfed in a bright crimson and platinum egg-shaped energy cocoon that floated up into the air and grew into mountain-sized proportions. Then, the energy cocoon burst open, revealing the Eagle Dopant in a brand new form. Appearance-wise, he was now a Crimson-colored Kaiju-sized nonhumanoid Three-headed Eagle, with a third eye on each of his foreheads, huge sharp claws on his feet, and a total of twenty wings (two wings at where the wings usually are on birds, ten wings lined up behind the first two wings, and eight more wings attached to his back) on his body. "Okay, that is so not fair." Manny said. "Don't worry, we got this." Lincoln said. "Vectors, Launch!" Lincoln, Sakura, and Clyde called, calling their Vectors. "Watch and learn." Aya told Frida. "Alebrije Henkei!" She and Azalee called, taking on their mech forms and flying up to where the Dopant and Vectors were.

"Holy Chalupa!" Frida exclaimed in shock. "That probably means...Alebrije Henkei!" Frida called.

Transformation Sequence

Frida was back in the wrestling ring that's formed in her morphing sequence as various stars and constellations were shining above and around her. Then, her body became metallic, Common Starling wings and a Marine Betta dorsal fin sprouted from her back, a Marine Betta tail grew from her rear end, her arms and legs became metallic and morphed into Ocelot legs (with the front ones having Marine Betta pectoral fins attached to the elbows) as she grew and then meowed as she transformed into the Callocelotarling Mech. "Cool!" Frida said. "Sakura, Jewel formation!" Lincoln said. "Right, Lincoln-kun!" Sakura replied. "Nenshin!" Clyde and Aurachnid called. "Gattai!" Lincoln called. "Go, Aquarion!" Sakura called.

(Cue "Kimi no Shinwa ~ Aquarion Dai Ni Shou" by AKINO with bless4)

As soon as Sakura said that, the Vectors shot up into the sky. Afterwards, the Vectors started to transform, starting with Vector Jewel as it's front hull opened and straightened up before moving down to form arms while the back boosters containing the Topaz and Emerald detached themselves from the Vector as it's two large front turbine engines moved forwards to become the chest. Next, Vector Anansi front leg parts spread away from each other before twisting around, extending, and opened up panels to form the upper wings while its spider leg-structures on its sides extended and opened up panels to form the lower wings. Finally, Vector LL's front part splits open in halves, moved completely downwards and then extended to form the legs while its wings folded over it form a skirt, right before its tail fin split open and and stayed on the back. Plus, the boosters from Vector Jewel attached themselves to the ends of the legs to form feet, with the Topaz on the right foot and the Emerald on the left foot. After that, the Vectors finally started to combine. First, Vector LL merged underneath Vector Jewel. Then, Vector Anansi connected to the back to form the wings. Finally, the front hulls of Vector Jewel flipped over to reveal robotic hands with the Ruby above the right hand and the Sapphire above the left hand. Afterwards, the part of Vector Jewel that contains the cockpit twisted backwards and flipped open to reveal the head, which resembles that of Aquarion Spada, but with a heart-shaped visor and a silver bejeweled tiara on top of it. When the combination was completed, the resulting robot, which looks like a female robotic fairy, did a few dancing poses. Then, it finished by striking an elegant pose, similar to that of Fairymon/Kazemon from "Digimon Frontier", with its wings projecting out energy structures that resembles butterfly wings while Sakura shouted "AQUARION! JEWEL!".

That made Manny and Frida drop their jaws in shock. "I know, crazy right?" Shintomaru asked. "If you think that giant robot scares me, then you've got another thing coming!" The Eagle Dopant declared as then flapped all twenty of his huge eagle wings forwards very quickly, creating a great big gust of hurricane-strength winds that caused everyone and everything on the land and in the air to get literally blown away, including Aquarion, the Alebrije Mechs, Shintomaru, Edge, Andros, Phixia, and Manny. "Ha! What do you think of-" The Eagle Dopant asked before getting blasted in the back, making him turn around to see LuchaPrime and the other Alebrije mechs. "Oh, great, more of you do-gooders!" The Eagle Dopant said sarcastically. "You guys alright? Lisa called us." Ronnie Anne said. That's when everyone, minus Andros, was heard groaning in mild pain as they were stuck on the trees or, in the case of Aquarion and the Vularena, Phoelacandra, and Callocelotarling Mechs, on the ground.

"Aside from the mild pain, we're fine." Sakura said. "Woah, Callocelotarling, is that you?" Sweetarlin asked. "Big brother! Oh, am I glad to see you!" Callocelotarling said. "Brother?!" The Kamen Riders, Andros, and Phixia asked in shock and confusion. "Callocelotarling is Sweetarlin's little sister." Vularena explained. "You never told me that you had a younger sister!" Par said in complaint. "You never asked." Sweetarlin said. "Anyway, where on Earth have you been Callocelotarling?" Sweetlarin asked. "Funny story about that." Callocelotarling said. "It happened after that shockwave suddenly caused us to sucked out of the Alebrije World and into the human world, specifically in a huge city called Great Lakes City!" Callocelotarling started explaining.

"Great Lakes City? That's where most of us Lucharangers live!" Ronnie Anne said in shock. "But, how come I haven't found you until now?" Sweetarlin asked in confusion. "Well, no sooner did I arrive in the city, I wandered around for a while, before I ran into Halluciopterachne, the Alebrije of Reality, who then had me gathered together with several other Alebrijes, including five of the Great Elementals, before telling us that we're needed in other worlds, though she didn't specify on why, so she sent us through those worlds through various different portals, in my case, she sent me to a place called Miracle City!" Callocelotarling explained. "Which is where I'm from." Frida said. "Same with me!" Manny said. "The other day, I found this strange gemstone which earlier shattered to reveal this device that allowed me to transform with Callie here into one of you 'Lucharangers' I think that crazy spider guy, what was his name, Armadeiras, I think, mentioned." Frida said.

"Armadeiras? ARMADEIRAS?!" Clyde asked angrily. "Woah, what's his problem?" Frida asked. "Armadeiras killed his birth mother." Sakura explained. That made Manny and Frida gasp in shock. "Yeah, let me tell you, it was not pretty." Lincoln said. "Well, anyway, first we need to deal with Tweety over here, then we can catch up, Skyring descend!" Ronnie Anne called. Then, LuchaPrime held its weapon up into the sky and shot out a beam that summoned the Sky Ring from the clouds. "You guys have a giant, floating, wrestling ring?" Frida said in awe. "We use it to prevent collateral damage, plus it looks cool and fits our Luchador motif." Aya said. That made Manny and Frida start flinching at the collateral damage part. "Something wrong, you two?" Phixia asked. "Let's just say we know a thing or two about collateral damge." Frida said, nervously chuckling as Aya looked at her aura.

"*Gasp!* Seriously?! You two cause collateral damage both intentionally and unintentionally whenever fighting against villains or just playing pranks?!" Aya asked incredulously. "Okay, that whole 'aura' thing is starting to get creepy." Frida said. "Yeah, it's like my Dad's Bronze Boots of Truth, minus the need to be kicked in order for the truth to come out!" Manny noted. "Freaky." Shintomaru said. "Sorry, but when I read somebody's aura, sometimes I just can't help but speak out what whatever memories or secrets they have!" Aya said. "Well, can you please not say what you saw about Manny and how I you know..." Frida whispered. "Kissed him in the lips?" Aya asked quietly. "No, the other thing!" Frida whispered. "Oh, you mean how you have feelings for him?" Aya asked. "Yes, I was able to play it off later as a heat of the moment thing, but..." Frida admitted.

"Oh, right, of course!" Aya said. "Well, either way, follow us if you dare!" Ronnie Anne said as LuchaPrime, Aquarion, and the Alebrije Mechs flew up to the Skyring. "Gladly!" The Eagle Dopant said eagerly as he flew up to the Sky Ring. "You are going to regret crossing me!" The Eagle Dopant said, flapping his wings. As he did so, in addition to hurricane-strength winds, he also produced crimson energy slashes and razor-sharp eagle feathers from his wings, greatly damaging the Mechas. Well, all except for the Kabutocerosteus Mech, due to his Strength powers rendering him immune to bodily damage. "You have no idea how lucky you are, bro." Tanugatanta said. That made Kabutocerosteus chuckle sheepishly. "Dang, how is that Eagle guy so powerful?" Frida asked as Aya read the Eagle Dopant's aura. "*Gasp!* His Gaia Memory is another one of those Memories that had taken the Hyper-go-on Energy of a Wisp!" Aya realized in shock. "Huh?" Frida asked. "Long story, we need a way to get past his attacks!" Sakura said.

"Perhaps my big bro should just charge right in, since he's only one not damaged by the Eagle Dopant's attacks!" Tanugatanta suggested. "Best I can think of!" Ronnie Anne said. "On it!" Bobby and Kabutocerosteus said, charging forward. "Oh, No, You Don't!" The Eagle Dopant said as he then attacked with his wings again, unleashing the winds, energy slashes, and feathers. While the slashes and the feathers didn't damage him, the winds were too strong for the Kabuto mech to get any further. "Dang it!" Bobby said. "Hey, does anyone know of a constellation that can help here? Apparently, I can create constructs based on them." Frida said. "Scutum! It's the Shield Constellation!" Lisa said over the comm link which Sakura then relayed to Frida. "Who said that?" Frida asked in confusion. "Oh, where are my manners? I'm Lisa Loud, girl genius and ally of the Kamen Riders, Lucharangers, and Alchemeister! Also, I'm LL's second youngest sister!" Lisa said.

"Second youngest? How many sisters does he have?" Frida asked. "10." Lincoln said. "10 SISTERS?!" Frida and Callocelotarling asked in shock. "Five Older Sisters, Five Younger Sisters, No Brothers!" Clyde explained. "That's crazy, I already have enough problems dealing with my two sisters, I can't imagine 10!" Frida said. "Tell me about it." Lincoln and Lisa said. "Anyway, you said something about a Shield Constellation?" Frida asked. "Correct, it is called 'Scutum'." Lisa said. "It's named specifically after the rectangular, semi-cylindrical shield used by the Ancient Roman Army!" She added. "Cool!" Frida said as suddenly LuchaPrime had a rectangular, semi-cylindrical shield made out of connecting stars, courtesy of the Callocelotarling Mech. "Nice!" Ronnie Anne said. "If you shout Alebrije Busou, you'll be able to take on a weapon form that can be used by Aquarion." AkaRed's voice filled Frida's head. "Okay, who's voice am I hearing right now?" Frida asked in confusion. "I am AkaRed, mentor of the Alebrije Sentai Lucharangers, as well as a spirit that embodies the power of the Super Sentai heroes who wear the color Red." AkaRed explained.

That took Frida by surprise. "I don't really understand what's going on, but...Alebrije Busou!" Frida said. At that moment, the Callocelotarling Mech flew up into the air and started to transform. First, the Callocelotarling Mech had her hind legs folded into her thighs, followed by her front legs folding into her shoulders, with her pectoral fins spread out horizontally as the shoulders and thighs slid together like the legs of the Zyudenryu Stegochi, Dricera, and Ankydon. Next, as soon as her pelvic fins folded themselves over the base of her anal fin, the Callocelotarling Mech had her head and neck straightened forwards as her caudal fin, dorsal fin, and anal fin (with pelvic fins still attached to them) slid themselves backwards all at once, revealing a sword-like structure in between the dorsal and anal fins while behind the caudal fin, making the fins become like large sword blades, right before the whole structure twisting itself horizontally halfway. After that happened, the Callocelotarling Mech's body split itself vertically in three pieces (two side pieces and one middle piece), with the two side pieces (containing the already folded in legs) sliding themselves backwards from the middle piece (containing the wings) while already transformed fish tail and fins, which is now a big bladed tip, moved even further backwards, right before the side pieces went and combined themselves with each other, closing the gap between the middle body piece and the bladed tip. Once that happened, the Callocelotarling Mech's Starling wings spread themselves out and then moved towards the base of her upper back, becoming the hilt, while the middle body piece popped out two rows of six short spikey obsidian blades, like those seen on a Macuahuitl, from each side of itself, right before eight more of said obsidian blades popped out from the sides of where the Mech's shoulders and thighs are. Then, once the Callocelotarling Mech's neck, with her head already straight forwards, stretched itself forwards to reveal a handle, the Celeste Alebrije mech's transformation was complete, making it look like a combination of a Fantasy RPG video game-styled sword and a Macuahuitl. Afterwards, Aquarion Jewel went and caught the newly formed weapon in its right hand, swinging it around before ending a dramatic pose as Frida announced "AQUARION JEWEL! STAR WRECKER!".

"Okay, this is so weird." Frida said. "You should try being inside one of our jets when Aquarion is being formed, it can be a bit overwhelming at first." Sakura said. "Really?" Frida asked in confusion. "Yeah, trust us." Sakura said as The Eagle Dopant flapped his wings again, only for LuchaPrime to blocke the attack with it's shield and fire it's blaster. That caused the Eagle to screech in pain upon getting hit. "You'll Pay For That!" The Eagle Dopant declared as he fired laser beams from the mouths of his three heads. Only for LuchaPrime to block them, unfortunately for the Eagle Dopant, this gave Aquarion Jewel, with help from the Tanugatanta Mech, to appear out of nowhere before delivering a drop attack onto him from the sky with the Star Wrecker. That caused the Eagle Dopant to be sent plummeting down to the Sky Ring's floor, crashing upon impact.

"Let's wrap this up!" Ronnie Anne said. "LuchaPrime, Prime Victory!" The Lucharangers called. "Star Wrecking Crash!" Frida called as the Star Wrecker gathered Celeste-colored star energy into its blade portion. Before Aquarion Jewel swung it like a club accompanied by LuchaPrime's finisher and the other mechs firing energy at the Dopant. Needless to say, it was too much for the Eagle Dopant to handle. "I'VE BEEN PLUCKED!" The Eagle Dopant shouted as he finally exploded, causing his GaiaRiser to fly out and shatter, along with his Kaiju Memory, while the Eagle Gaia Memory only landed on the floor and didn't shatter at all. Once the smoke has cleared, the Eagle Dopant has been revealed to be returned to his normal form of Andrés Aguilar, who then groaned pain before falling unconscious. "Oh boy, Shin-kun, give the police a call, and let Shotaro-sempai, Phillip-Sempai, and Ryu-sempai another Memory has been purified." Sakura said as the Eagle Memory transformed into something more closely resembling those used by W and Accel. "Already on it." Shintomaru said.

Meanwhile...

"WHAT?! Great, there goes our Bird of Prey Trafficking ring!" Stephano complained over the phone before hanging up. "What's your problem?" Futaba asked. "That was Mano, apparently, not only did those kids somehow escape the castle, they managed to team up with the Kamen Riders and Lucharangers to defeat Andrés Aguilar a.k.a. the Eagle Dopant, the ringleader of my Illegal Bird of Prey Trafficking ring!" Stephano complained. "Bird of Prey Trafficking?" Futaba asked in confusion. "It's this thing where we smuggled Birds of Prey, mostly Eagles, to wealthy clients." Stephano explained. "For what purpose?" Futaba asked. "Usually depends on the client! Most times, it's to keep the Birds of Prey as prized exotic pets! Other times there are those who want kill and stuff them for taxidermy collections!" Stephano explained. "Ha! Serves you and your evil minions right!" White Pantera said as he, Puma Loco, and Emiliano were locked up in an energy cage, White Pantera's Boots and Puma Loco's Sombrero locked up in a separate cage. "No matter, I still have more crime rings available!" Stephano said.

"Was it really necessary to lock the boots and hat in a separate cage though?" Moroha asked. "Yes! The Golden Sombrero of Chaos and Bronze Boots of Truth are the sources of Puma Loco and White Pantera's powers, without them, they're no better than tiny, helpless, babies!" Lady Gobbler said. Voltura and Black Cuervo chuckled at that. "Well either way, we've got bigger problems, those two kids have found the Kamen Riders and Lucharangers!" Stephano said. "What's so bad about that? They're not in this world." Otoha asked in confusion. "No, but one of the Kamen Riders has the ability to open up gates in the dimensional wall and they have technology that allows them to do the same!" Futaba said in annoyance. That made Otoha and the Animarius soldiers present gasp in shock. "Indeed, which means it's only a matter of time before they arrive to save them." Johannes said, pointing to the prisoners. "We need to shore up our defenses, fortunately, we brought enough fruits from the tree of life for the Soul Cores you found." He said as the Shadow Angels pulled out 11 fruits from the Tree of Life. "And we happen to know plenty of Supervillains who are more than eager to show El Tigre what's for, some of whom may even be interested in these things." Voltura said, holding her Gaia Memory. "And that includes me!" Sartana of the Dead, now with her wings attached to her back, said with Django and her Skeleton Bandito Army behind her. "And me!" El Mal Verde said, pounding his robotic hand into his flesh one.

Meanwhile...

"A Bird of Prey Trafficking ring?" Stella asked as everyone headed to the Kamen Riders' underground base. "Yeah, that's what the police said." Shintomaru said. "I don't even want to think about what happens to the birds trafficked by those guys." Azalee said in disgust as they arrived in their base, AkaRed, their Animarius allies, sans Axolota, as well as Fuka, Desco, Nellie, Panopticon, Pazuzu, the Prinnies, and Lisa already there. Plus, surprisingly, the rest of the Loud Sisters, Chloe, Denkyem, Duafe, and Mpatapo were there as well. And of course, Lori, being Lori, rushed over to Bobby, removed his helmet and pulled him into a kiss while Chloe and Denkyem did the same with Clyde and Aya while Duafe and Mpatapo simply kissed Andros and Phixia. "Aw!" Frida beamed. "Kawaii!" Sakura and Yui beamed. "I'm glad you guys are here." Lincoln said as he and the others deactivated their transformations while Manny and Frida did the same. "Wow, you four are a lot shorter outside the suits." Frida told Carl, Adelaide, Yui, and Subaru.

"Anyway, I'm Lincoln Loud, Kamen Rider LL." Lincoln said. "I'm his girlfriend, Hoseki Sakura, Kamen Rider Jewel!" Sakura said. "Of course over there are my sisters Lori, Leni, Luna, Luan, Lynn, Lucy, Lana, Lola, Lisa, and Lily." Lincoln said. "You guys all have first and last names beginning with the letter 'L'?" Manny asked in confusion. "Our mother is the only person in our immediate family who's name starts with a letter other than 'L', 'R' in her case." Lisa said. "Oh, okay, I see! That would explain the LL in your hero name!" Frida said. "Believe me, it wasn't really my first choice in a hero name!" Lincoln said before glaring at Clyde. Clyde nervously chuckled. "Anyway, I'm his best friend, Clyde Mcbride, Kamen Rider Anansi, and this is my partner, Aurachnid." Clyde said. "Hey, how's it going?" Aurachnid said. "This is the first time we've ever seen an actual talking spider before!" Manny said. "Yeah, well I was originally a normal Bum Eyed Spider, until Clyde's ancestor, an African warrior named Akoma, asked a Spider deity named Kwaku Anansi, for the power needed to protect his village from some nasty invaders." Aurachnid said.

"What kind of nasty invaders?" Frida asked. "They were originally from the same villainous faction those humanoid Dinosaurs you saw earlier were from." Lincoln said. "Except for the fact they weren't dinosaurs! Specifically, they were a Black Leopard, a Nile Crocodile, a Ball Python, an American Cockroach, an Oriental Hornet, and a Lightning Bird!" Aurachnid said. Aya tightened her fist angrily at the mention of Shockwing, fortunately, Denkyem was able to calm her down with a hug and a kiss on the top of her head. "I'm Clyde's girlfriend Chloe." Chloe said. "Oh, hello! Nice French outfit you got on there!" Frida said. "Merci Beaucoup!" Chloe said. "I'm Kadogawa Shintomaru, Kamen Rider Neo-Decade." Shintomaru said. "And I'm his girlfriend Stella Zhau." Stella said. "Uh, exactly how old are you, because I can't help but notice that you're kind of taller than your boyfriend!" Frida said. "We're both 13." Stella said. "Seriously?! You two are the same age as us?!" Manny asked in shock. "Man, you got lucky that you're tall for your age, Stella!" Frida complained. Stella just shrugged at that. "Anyway, I'm Hiro Edge, Kamen Rider Neo-OOO." Edge said.

"Okay, how come that both you and Kadogawa here have 'Neo' in your hero names?" Manny asked in confusion. "First of all, Kadogawa is my last name while Shintomaru is my first name!" Shintomaru said. "In Japan, we normally use our last names before our first." Sakura explained. "In Japan, we normally use our last names before our first." Sakura explained. "Yep." Edge said. "As for the 'Neo' part, that's due to the fact that we're both reincarnations of the original Kamen Riders Decade and OOO." Shintomaru explained. "Reincarnations? What are those?" Frida asked in confusion. "It's when a person dies and their soul gets reborn into as a new person, there are many religions around the world that believe in it, I on the other hand am still having trouble with it." Lisa said. "Whatever makes you happy, Lisa-chan." Sakura said. "Well, where we come from, those that die become skeletons and end up in a place called the Land of the Dead, which is actually not as bad as it seems, since it's more happy and festive despite everyone being dead, not to mention that they are allowed to go up to the Land of the Living and visit their families once a year during the Day of the Dead, provided that their families continue to remember them!" Manny said.

"Oh, don't get me started on Dia de los Muertos." Ronnie Anne said with a chuckle. "But anyway, I'm Ronnie Anne Santiago, LuchaPurple, leader of the Alebrije Sentai Lucharanger, and this is my Alebrije partner, Jaxondor, or Jax as we call her." Ronnie Anne said. "Hello!" Jaxondor said. "I'm Ronnie Anne's girlfriend and second in command, Sid Chang, LuchaBlue, and this is my partner Ailuxucara, or Ailu as we call her." Sid said. "Hi!" Ailuxucara said. "Girlfriend? But you're both girls!" Manny said in shock. "Yeah! What gives?" Frida asked. "Yeah, it's pretty common in this world." Becky said as she and Desco kissed their respective girlfriends on the cheek, making them chuckle and blush. "Even I'm in a same sex relationship." Luna said, showing a picture of her and Sam on her phone. "And I'm the adopted son of two men." Clyde said. "But, why did such a thing happen in the first place?" Frida asked. "No one really knows." Lisa said. "I'm Casey, LuchaRed, and this is my partner Trisaurus, or Trisaur as we call him." Casey said.

"Greetings!" Trisaurus said. "I'm Sameer, LuchaGreen, and this is my partner Batelegong, or Batel as we call him." Sameer said. "Greetings!" Batelegong said. "I'm Sameer's girlfriend Nikki, LuchaPink, before you ask, I'm also tall for my age of 12, and this is my partner, Regaluco, or Luco as we call her." Nikki said. "Hey there!" Regaluco said. "Dang! You're even taller than Stella! You must have gotten really good genes from your mother to get that tall at your age!" Frida said in awe. "Yeah, well." Nikki said. "I'm Laird, LuchaYellow, and this is my partner Leaquilfin, or Quil as we call him." Laird said. "Hello there!" Leaquilfin said. "I'm Ronnie Anne's cousin Carl Casagrande, LuchaGold, and this is my partner and Jax's younger brother Magnifalcougar, or Magni as we call him." Carl said. "What's up?" Magnifalcougar said. Of course, Manny and Frida couldn't help but chuckle. "I'm sorry, but your last name, Casagrande, doesn't that mean 'Big House' in Spanish?" Frida asked while chuckling. Carlota, CJ, and Carl blinked in confusion. "Huh, I guess we never really thought about that." Carl admitted.

"No we did not." Carlota said. "I'm Sid's little sister, LuchaSilver, Adelaide, and this is my partner and Ailu's younger sister, Lunastura or Lulu, as we call her." Adelaide said. "Um, hi!" Lunastura said. "Wow, Callie is right, you are strange but adorable!" Frida said to Lunastura. "Thank you." Lunastura said. "I'm Becky, LuchaCyan, and this is my partner, Harpygolverine, or Harpygo as we call her." Becky said. "S'up Y'all?" Harpygolverine said. "I'm Becky's girlfriend Dodge, LuchaOrange, and this is my partner Prawngolequin, or Lequin as we call her." Dodge said. "Hi Y'all!" Prawngolequin said. "I'm Becky's brother Ricky, LuchaMagnet, and this is my partner, Aurastrolumba, or Aurastro, as we call him." Ricky said. "How's it going?" Aurastrolumba said.

"I'm Aya, LuchaAmber, and this is my partner and familiar Vularena, or Rena as we call her." Aya said. "Hello!" Vularena said. "So, in case you don't know about me, I'm actually a junior witch doctor!" Aya said, much to much to Manny and Frida's surprise. "You're an actual witch doctor?!" Manny asked in surprise. "As in the bone in the nose, large mask wearing, 'Ooh ee ooh ah ah ting tang walla walla bing bang' kind of witch doctor?" Frida asked, much to Aya's annoyance. "Those are nothing more than ridiculous stereotypes." Aya said. That made Frida flinch in embarrassment. "Sorry!" Frida apologized sheepishly. "It's fine, I come from a long line of Witchdoctors, dating back 5,000 years to my ancestor Ofui, who was the one who created the Beauty Enhancement Potion I mentioned before, as such I can see auras and do this!" Aya said, shifting to her Werehyena form.

That made Manny and Frida jump up in shock. "What are you, some kind of werewolf with spots?!" Manny asked in shock, much to Aya's annoyance. "Hyena." She corrected. "Specifically Crocuta Crocuta, the Spotted Hyena." Lisa said. "Fun fact, Spotted Hyenas live in matriarchal packs, since they are lead by an Alpha female!" She added. "Yeah, Lisa here is easily the smartest person in this room, let alone the whole town." Lincoln said. "No argument there." Lisa said. "Anyway..." Aya said, shifting back to her human form. "This is my wonderful boyfriend Denkyem." Aya said. "Hello!" Denkyem said. "Just out of curiosity, what kind of a name is Denkyem?" Manny asked. "It's actually an Akan word for 'Crocodile'!" Denkyem said. "Which is actually funny since my boyfriend Crocotungakop is 1/3 Crocodile." Vularena said. "Did somebody mention me?" Crocotungakop asked as he, Equucasardinops, Canuraluga, Mammobenocetornis, Haasmigalodon, Megonychonyatan, Amazquirranda, Diohureus, Paralanusium, Electrangiconia, Euryzinophis, Pristioparaven, Thalassphygris, Kaicerapteryx, Epymenopsis, Owlatursa, and Bubolarwhal flew into the base.

Making Vularena, Jaxondor, Ailuxucara, Harpygolverine, Prawngolequin, Aurastrolumba, Cristeiroceros, Scoloricunice, and Kabutocerosteus smile before flying over to their respective lovers. "Huh?" Manny and Frida exclaimed in confusion. "These are some more of our Alebrije friends." Ronnie Anne said. "Crocotungakop, Equuscarindrops, Canuralaga, Mammobenocetornis, Haasmigalodon, Megonychonyatan, Amazquirranda, Diohuerus, Paralanusium, Electragiconia, Euryzinophis, Pristioparaven, Thalassphygris, Kaicerapteryx, Epymenopsis, Owlatursa, Bubolarwhal, so good to see you guys again! Oh, and Equuscarindrops, I actually saw Qilkydra before." Callocelotarling said. "You have?! Does that include the rest of the Great Elementals too?!" Equucasardinops asked in surprise. "Yeah, they, except for Cinnakatan and Thunderaietlik, were amongst the Alebrijes Halluciopterachne sent to various worlds." Callocelotarling explained.

"I was wondering what my cousin has been doing" Walliscoros said as he flew into the base. "Hey, Walli, thanks again for helping us the other day." Ronnie Anne said. "You're welcome!" Walliscoros said. "Uh, who's he?" Manny asked. "Oh, where are my manners? I'm Walliscoros! From the Sea, I'm a Walliserops, a type of Trilobite with a trident-like protrusion on its forehead, from the Sky, I'm a Mazothairos, an extinct Insect from the order Palaeodictyoptera, known for having a pair of winglets on their prothorax in front of their first pair of wings, which gave them the epithet of "six-winged insects", and from the Land, I'm a Pulmonoscorpius, an extinct scorpion species that's known as the largest scorpion that ever lived!" Walliscoros said, much to Aurachnid's fright upon the mention of the word 'scorpion'. "SCORPION?! *SHRIEK!*" Aurachnid screamed in terror as he quickly dashed behind Clyde's back. "What's with him?" Walliscoros asked in confusion. "He's terrified of scorpions." Clyde explained.

"Why?" Manny and Frida asked in confusion. "The temple he lived in when he was a normal spider was attacked by a large number of them." Clyde explained. "It Was A Massacre, Man! A Massacre!" Aurachnid yelled in anguish before crying loudly. "Yikes!" Frida said. "Yeah. Anyway, I'm Edge's girlfriend Azalee Alquemie, LuchaVermillion, and this is my partner Pheolacandra, or Pheola as we call her." Azalee said. "Salutations!" Phoelacandra said. "And I'm her twin brother Aden, I'm what's known as a Metal Hero, the Alchemic Knight Alchemeister, and this is my partner, the Alchemic Saber Ouroblade, but he's actually an Alchemist named Ouros who transferred his soul into the sword." Aden said. "Pleasure to meet you!" Ouros said. "And speaking of which, Aden and I are actually from a long line of Alchemists, starting 800 years ago with our ancestor Allister Alquemie, who was originally from a different world!" Azalee said. "Not to mention, the younger brother of Aloïs Alquemie, one of the four Alchemists that were ordered by the Evil King to create the powers that Edge uses in both this life and his past one." She added. "What kind of powers, exactly?" Frida asked. "The Evil King had ordered the four Alchemists to create these beings called Greeed, the Greeed are made up of Core and Cell Medals, the Core Medals having the DNA of various animals imbued in them, as OOO, I have been able to use those Core Medals to fight evil, when Allister arrived in this world, he used his knowledge of Alchemy and the process his older brother Aloïs and the other three Alchemists used to create what the Alquemie family calls 'Homunculi Guardians', who's Core Medals I am also capable of using." Edge explained, holding up the Taka, Tora, and Batta medals.

"These are the Taka, meaning "Hawk", Tora, meaning "Tiger", and Batta, meaning "Grasshopper ", Medals, which I use for my primary Rider form!" Edge explained. "But there are plenty others." He added. "Cool!" Frida said in awe. "I'm Casey's girlfriend Jalissa, LuchaTeal, and this is my partner and Trisaur's girlfriend, Conerrapingo, or Coney as we call her." Jalissa said. "Hello!" Conerrapingo said. "By the way, unlike the girls here, my own breasts are naturally grown, since the women of my family are known for being early bloomers!" Jalissa said while pointing at her chest, much to Frida's envy. "Lucky." Frida said while covering her chest. "I'm Cianán O'Rourke, LuchaIndigo, and this is my partner Cristeroiceros, or Cris as we call him, as well as his girlfriend Amazquirranda, or Amaz as we call her, his sister Electrangiconia, or Electra as we call her, and her boyfriend Euryzinophis, or Eury as we call him." Cianán said. "Hello there!" Cristeroiceros said. "Pleased to meet you!" Amazquirranda said. "Glad to see you here!" Electrangiconia said. "Nice to see some of interesting people like you two!" Euryzinophis said. "Uh, thanks!" Manny said. "I see some type of butterfly and some type of snake, but I don't recognize the third kind of creature you resemble!" Frida said. "My Sky Animal is a Forest Green Butterfly, my Sea Animal is a Horned Sea Snake, and my Land Animal is a Therizinosaurus!" Euryzinophis said. "A what now?" Frida asked in confusion at the last part.

"It was a large herbivorous Theropod dinosaur that lived during the Late Cretaceous Era, well known for its very long scythe-like claws on its fingers." Lisa explained while showing everyone a artistic image of a Therizinosaurus on her phone. "And interesting fact about these two, they're able to revive the dead by combining their powers." Fuka said, pointing to Electragiconia and Euryzinophis. That made Manny and Frida shudder at the 'revive the dead' part. "What's wrong, you two?" Electrangiconia asked in confusion. "Don't get us started on that kind of thing, we have an enemy named 'Sartana of the Dead', and well...there was this one incident where we had to ask for her help, when our School's Mascot...died, and well, it was a whole thing, long story." Frida said.

That's when Aya read Manny and Frida's auras and she was not happy about what she just saw. "*Gasp!* You two went and resurrected a Zebra Donkey as a Zombie by stealing a Mystic Guitar from Sartana of the Dead herself?!" Aya asked incredulously. "I've accidentally killed Zebra Donkey after feeding him all those Banana Splits! I didn't even know bananas were poisonous to Zebra Donkeys, and I would have too, if we haven't slept through that video guide, due to Dr. Eugene L. Butterman being so incredibly boring in his speeches!" Manny explained in defense. "What even is a Zebra Donkey? I've heard of Zorses, which is a mix between a Zebra and a Horse, and a Zonkey, which is a Zebra mixed with a donkey, but you two sound like you're talking about a completely different breed!" Lisa said, making Manny and Frida blink in confusion. "Well... He is a Donkey with Zebra Stripes, so... That's exactly what he is!" Frida said.

"Yes, well, anyway..." Electragiconia said, flying atop one of Fuka's shoulders. "By combining my powers over life." She said as Euryzinophis flew to Fuka's other shoulder. "And mine over Death." He said. "We're able to turn a once living soul into a completely living breathing being again." Electragiconia explained. "And not as a Zombie or some other type of undead being!" Euryzinophis added. "Ah man, where were you guys when we had to try and get out of that situation? A Zombie is literally the best we could get at the end of that day!" Frida said. "This Zebra Donkey isn't trying to feed on anybody's brains, is he?" Carl asked in worry. "Thankfully, no! He still has his happy, energetic, and playful personality, so he's basically his same old self, even as a Zombie!" Manny said. "Although his ear keeps falling off." Frida said. "Anyway, a little interesting thing about me is the fact that I'm part Leprechaun." Ciannan said. "Whaaaaaat?!" Manny and Frida asked in shock and disbelief. "Seriously? You're part-Leprechaun?! Where's your pot of gold?!" Manny asked, much to Cianán's annoyance.

"Okay, first of all, I do not have a pot of gold with me, because I never had one!" Cianán said in annoyance. "And second, in addition to being part-Leprechaun, I'm also from a long line of Demon Hunters!" He added. "Demon Hunters?" Frida asked. "Basically, we travel to different places and hunt down all types of malicious and dangerous demons and then seal them away within stone jars, especially since some of those demons are incredibly difficult or straight up impossible to kill off!" Cianán explained. "Cool!" Manny and Frida said. "And there's one other thing..." Ciannan said sheepishly.

Enough Time To Explain The Potion Incident As Well As Gremlock's Involvement Later...

"And because of the potion that Gremlock had sabotaged, Nyansipo, Charley, and I are now very young fathers!" Cianán finished explaining. Needless to say, the exact details of the whole incident made Manny and Frida so shocked and grossed out, that they both immediately threw up on the floor out of disgust "BLEEEEEEEEGH!". "Not the first time someone has reacted that way, most likely won't be the last." Ciannan said. "*Sigh!* Well, it's a good thing we're here, dood!" Derrick said. "And we brought the cleaning tools with us, just in case, dood!" Elliott said as he and the other Prinnies went and cleaned up the throw-up mess on the floor with some wet mops. "Oh, that is so gross!" Frida said in disgust while recovering from the throw-up. "Yeah! What is that Gremlin's problem?!" Manny asked in disgust. "It's the MO of his mistress Lujuria, a Demon of Lust." Panopticon said. "In fact, she had three soldiers specialized for causing mass pregnancies alone! First, Satyrian, a Satyr-themed Pecadiablo, would hypnotize large groups of people with music from his panpipes, then Cupidark and Erostar, twin Putto-themed Pecadiablos, would shoot the people with arrows laced with a special toxin, then once the hypnotism ended, a spell from the toxin would take effect and, well you get the idea!" Trisaurus said, grossing Manny and Frida out again.

"Thankfully all three of them are locked up in a magic box!" Alraunellie said. "Of course, Cianán, Charley, and Nyansipo aren't the only victims of Gremlock's mischief! My Onii-chan, that means 'Older Brother', Benjiro and his girlfriend Hozumi-chan got hypnotized by him into making babies together!" Yui said while pulling out a photo featuring her older brother Benjiro and his girlfriend Hozumi with their babies Yuto and Yuka. "He did the same exact thing with my Onii-chan Katashi and his own girlfriend Niyuki-chan!" Subaru said while pulling out a photo of his older brother Katashi and his girlfriend Niyuki with their babies Eito and Emi. "As well as mine and Aden's cousin Bastion and his girlfriend Genevieve." Azalee said. "As well as some of their classmates Silas, his girlfriend Matilda, Atticus, his girlfriend Thea, Cyrus, his girlfriend Arabella, and Jude and his girlfriend Eloise." Aden said. "And a couple friends of ours from another world, we even have some allies putting out an APB on him." Sakura said. "Wait, did you just say Atticus?" Kairos asked in confusion. "Yeah, he's in this photo!" Azalee as she pulled out a photo of Atticus and his girlfriend Thea with their twin baby boy and girl in their hands. "Why do you ask?" Aden asked. "That's my paternal younger cousin!" Kairos realized.

"Well that's awkward." Aden said sheepishly. "I'm going to have to talk to my Dad about this later." Kairos said. "I'm Laird's girlfriend Aquene, LuchaLavender, and this is my partner and Quil's girlfriend Stomantha, or Mantha as we call her." Aquene said. "Hello!" Stomantha said. "I'm Ronnie Anne's cousin and Carl's older sister Carlota, LuchaMagenta, and this is my partner Scolorficunice, or Scolorfi as we call her, and her boyfriend Diohuerus, or Dio as we call him." Carlota said. "Hi there!" Scolorficunice said. "Pleasure to meet you!" Diohureus said. "I'm Ronnie Anne's cousin and Carlota and Carl's brother CJ, LuchaBrown, and this is my partner, Mephoatzel, or Mepho as we call him." CJ said. "S'up Everyone?" Mephoatzeal said, though, unfortunately, he accidentally released his stinky aroma, causing both Manny and Frida to cough and gag in revulsion. "HOLY CHALUPA! WHAT ON EARTH IS THAT HORRIBLE SMELL?!" Frida asked in disgust. "Mephoatzel, the Alebrije of Gas, is known as the smelliest of all the Alebrije." Magnifalcougar explained.

"And since me and Magni shared a room with both him and CJ, neither one of us could get any good night's sleep because of the stench they both give off, especially when CJ farts in his sleep! Seriously, it was so bad that we had to drink energy drinks just to keep ourselves awake in the daytime!" Carl said in disgust. "Thank goodness, our girlfriends decided let us sleep in their room with them from now on!" Magnifalcougar said. This made Yui and Kitsunagakiri chuckle and blush. "I'm Ronnie Anne's older brother and Lori's boyfriend Bobby, LuchaBronze, and this is my partner Kabutocerosteus, or Cero as we call him, and his girlfriend Paralanusium, or Para as we call her." Bobby said. "Charmed!" Kabutocerosteus said. "Hello!" Paralanusium said. "I'm Par, LuchaCopper, and this is my partner and apparently your Alebrije partner's older brother, Sweetarlin, or Sweetar as we call him." Par said. "Hey, there!" Sweetarlin said. "I am Makros, LuchaCrimson, I am actually not from Earth, I am originally from the planet Straya, but I came to Earth to find a way to free my people, the Gurrugans, from the oppression that has lasted 5,000 years, and this is my partner, Kanganeurobster or Kangan as we call him." Makros said.

"Greetings to you all!" Kanganeurobster said. "I'm Carl-kun's girlfriend Konoha Yui, LuchaMarigold, and this is my partner and Magni-kun's girlfriend Kitsunagikiri, or Kitsuna as we call her." Yui said. "Hello there!" Kitsunagikiri said. "I'm Adelaide-chan's boyfriend Honda Subaru, LuchaTitanium, and this is my partner, Lulu-chan's boyfriend, and Cero-san's younger brother Tanugatanta, or Tanu as we call him." Subaru said. "Nice to see you!" Tanugatanta said. "Question, what's up with the 'chan's and the 'kun's and 'san's, and why is she so well-endowed for an eight-year-old?!" Frida asked while pointing at Yui. "The Japanese people tend to add suffixes to people's names." Lisa said. "Not even we really know why." Sakura said. "As for Yui's chest, well, the Beauty Enhancement Potion normally only works on girls at least 10 years of age, but because she was going through early Puberty, it worked on her." Aya explained.

"Double Lucky." Frida said enviously. "Yeah, the girls of both mine and Subaru-kun's families tend to be early bloomers." Yui admitted. "Plus, well, there's this!" She added as she allowed her fox ears and tail to pop out, much to the shock of Manny and Frida. "Yui-chan is part Kitsune, while Subaru-kun is part Tanuki, he's just not old enough to grow the parts that come with the DNA outside the suit, and I..." Sakura said, allowing her wings to unfurl. "...am part Nature Fairy." She explained. "Cool! Wait, what exactly are a Kitsune and a Tanuki?" Frida asked in confusion. "Creatures of Japanese folklore described as a Magic Fox with nine tails and a Magic Japanese Raccoon Dog." Lisa explained. "Of course, what both creatures have in common are that they are capable of magically shape-shifting into any form they want, including human form!" She added. "In our case, our direct Kitsune and Tanuki ancestors took the forms of well endowed human girls, which most likely explains why the girls in our families tend to be early bloomers." Yui explained. "As for the Kitsune and Tanuki parts, they usually don't start appearing in boys and girls alike until they turn either twelve or thirteen, though some get theirs as late as fourteen or as early as ten!" Subaru said.

"But again, potion." Yui said with a chuckle. "Lisa said that a Kitsune is a Nine-Tailed Fox, right? Then, how come you only have one tail, Yui?" Frida asked in confusion. "Kitsune normally grow one tail every 100 years, my family normally grows one every 10, but if Aya-neechan's theory on why my LuchaMarigold suit has all 9 is correct, I'll have them by the end of this year." Yui said. "Weird!" Frida said in awe. "Anyway, I'm Kairos Sideras, LuchaNavy, and this is my partner Tapemetrosuchus, or Tape as we call him." Kairos said. "Pleased to be your acquaintance!" Tapemetrosuchus said. "Uh, question, how old are you?" Manny asked. "Fourteen." Kairos replied. "You're only a year older than us and yet you're no taller than we are?! Yeesh! We've met other fourteen-year-olds that are way taller than you are!" Manny said. "Yeah! *Chuckle!* You're kind of short for your age, aren't ya?" Frida asked with a chuckle, making Kairos angry very quickly. "WHO ARE YOU CALLING SHORT, YOU INTERDIMENSIONAL PUNKS?!" Kairos angrily yelled, instantly scaring Manny and Frida. Fortunately, Fuka was able to hold Kairos back. "Easy, babe! Sorry, my boyfriend here is very sensitive about his height!" Fuka said.

"Boyfriend?" Manny and Frida asked in confusion. "Yeah, hi, I'm his girlfriend Fuka Kazamatsuri, and this is my little sister Desco." Fuka said. "Hello!" Desco said. "Uh, no offense, but your little sister looks like some kind of demon, I think!" Frida said in confusion. "A man-made artificial demon originally built to act as the 'final boss' in Big Sis' former goal of taking over our home world, and now helper in her new goal of helping protect this one from the evils that plague it, long story." Desco corrected. That made Manny and Frida blink in confusion. "Yeah, truth be told, I used to have ambitions for world domination, though I don't remember why I wanted to take over the world in the first place, I was five years old when dreamt about taking over the world after all!" Fuka said. "But then I died, went to the afterlife those guys are from..." She said, pointing to the Prinnies. "Thought it was a nightmare until a crazy dream invading serial killer opened my eyes to the truth, I got revived by Electra and Eury, well you get the idea." Fuka said.

"Whoa!" Manny and Frida exclaimed in shock. "Yeah." Fuka said. "Anyway, I'm Panopticon, Alraunellie here and I were once part of the evil demon army Pecadiablos, but..." Panopticon said, shifting to his human form. "After we fell in love with Carlota and Desco, we decided to instead fight them." He explained as Carlota hugged him while Desco pulled Alraunellie into a kiss. "Holy Chalupa!" Frida exclaimed. "Don't you find it odd that your boyfriend is a multi eyed demon?" Manny asked in confusion. "Yeah, but I don't care! He's been really good to me since we've started dating each other and that's all that matters to me!" Carlota said. "Does your parents know that you're dating a demon, though?" Manny asked, making Carlota gulp nervously. "Actually, they did know about me dating him in his human form, but... They don't really know about his true identity, so, technically, no!" Carlota answered nervously.

"But that's not important right now." Carlota said. "Anyway, I'm Andros." Andros said. "And I'm his twin sister Phixia." Phixia said. "And I'm Andros' girlfriend and Aya's best friend Duafe." Duafe said. "And I'm Phixia's boyfriend and Aya's cousin Mpatapo." Mpatapo said. "Can you see auras and turn into a hyena too?" Frida asked. "No, that's the people on her mother's side of the family, I'm on her father's side." Mpatapo explained. "Oh, sorry!" Frida apologized. "So, you two are twins, right?" Manny asked Andros and Phixia. "Yes, we are!" Andros replied. "Why do you ask?" Phixia asked in confusion. "Well, compared to the Golden Eagle Twins, you two are considered having better morality!" Manny said. "Golden Eagle Twins? Who are they?" Ronnie Anne asked. "They're a fourteen-year-old pair of girl/boy twin 'superheroes' who's real names are Carla and Carlito, though we don't really know their last names, who appear to very clean cut and respectable to the point of being highly esteemed and admired in Miracle City!" Frida said bitterly. "Why the air quote on the word 'superheroes'?" Lincoln asked. "It's because the Golden Eagle Twins aren't actually heroes, they're fakers! In fact, they're just mischievous, arrogant, and selfish spoiled brats, who pretended to be superheroes, and are such good liars that they easily deceived everyone in Miracle City, from civilians to villains, into believing they are heroic warriors, which allowed them to get away with whatever they want, like cutting in line at the arcade or taking valuables of other people as 'rewards'! Heck, you can say that their behavior is more borderline like supervillains, since they're willing to even put innocent lives at risk, for their own self-centered whims, like the time they tried to destroy a park, where old ladies, babies, and puppies play all day, with a super destructive laser from their zeppelin, just build their own personal motocross track on top of it, which even I didn't really like! What's even worse is that when Frida and I managed to stop them and destroyed their Zeppelin before they could harm any innocents, though the crash and malfunctioning laser vaporized most of the city as well as their golden statue, those Golden Eagle Twins still got away with everything as everyone still sees them as heroes without realizing the truth about what really happened while I ended up getting blamed for the whole incident and got locked up in the prison hospital under heavy guard for a whole week!" Manny explained in bitterness, much to everyone's shock and outrage. "How despicable! Such deceit should not go unpunished!" Aya said angrily. "Tell us about it!" Frida said.

"Anyway, I am Toadus, 5,000 years ago, I was the leader of the Amphibian tribe of the Animarius Empire, but after I was saved by Sakura's ancestor, my ward Gorf and I defected, helping him seal them in a stone tablet, only for it to be broken years later, so now we, along with the other Animarius you see here that defected, help the new generation fight them and the Pecadiablos." Gorf said. "Oh, yeah, Callie mentioned that the Pecadiablos were trapped in something called a Dark Box!" Frida said. "And I've been meaning to ask, how did they get freed?!" Callocelotarling asked.

Enough Time To Explain Later...

"So, basically, it's technically my fault, as well as that of the Animarius Empire, that the Pecadiablos were freed from the Dark Box!" Laird said, much to the shock of Manny, Frida, and even Callocelotarling. "Yeah." Laird said. "Anyway, I am Mambana, I am a Black Mamba Animarius." Mambana said. "I am Bufoam, a Cane Toad Animarius and Master Toadus's younger brother!" Bufoam said. "I am Gracilus, A Five Horned Rhinoceros Beetle Animarius." Gracilus said. "Five-Horned Rhinoceros Beetle? Is that an actual insect?" Frida asked in confusion. "Indeed, Eupatorus gracilicornis, the name comes from the four large horns on the Prothorax and one extra large Cephalic Horn." Lisa explained, showing a picture of the Five Horned Rhinoceros Beetle. "Cool." Frida said. "I am Hieracos, a Hieracosphinx Animarius!" Hieracos said. "I'm his twin brother Crios, a Criosphinx Animarius!" Crios said. "Hieracosphinx? Criosphinx? What are those?" Manny asked in confusion.

"They're variants of the Egyptian Sphinx, with the Hieracosphinx having the head of a Falcon, and the Criosphinx having the head of a Ram!" Lisa explained. "They're also our maternal first cousins once removed." Phixia said. "Oh, so, they're family to you two!" Manny said. "Yeah, we're just glad to have some family that isn't on King Draco's side, our parents and Uncle are, in fact, they aren't exactly the biggest fans of us being in relationships with humans alone!" Andros said. "Sheesh! It's that bad, huh?" Frida asked. "Very! While their mother has been taken care of, if you know what I'm saying, their father is the leader of the Animarius' Mammal Army, General Leo, while their Uncle..." Lincoln said, looking at Sakura who was starting to tear up at the mere mention of Cerberion. "Is the heartless Cerberus Animarius who killed my parents, Oniichan, and unborn Ototo and Imoto." Sakura admitted.

"Ototo and Imoto?" Manny asked in confusion. "Younger Brother and Younger Sister!" Lisa translated. "They didn't even get the chance to live! And when I confronted Cerberion about it, he didn't care one bit that he killed two innocent unborn children!" Sakura said, starting to cry more. That made Manny and Frida gasp in horror. "Yeah, and now he has a sick and twisted obsession with the idea of killing her on the day of the upcoming Solar Eclipse!" Aurachnid said. "Why a Solar Eclipse?" Frida asked in confusion. "To enhance his dark magical powers!" Naturia said as her bubble floated out of Sakura's pocket. "Whoa! Who are you?!" Frida asked in confusion. "Oh, this is Naturia-san, she's actually my Nature Fairy Ancestor, who allowed herself to be captured by Cerberion after he killed my family, since the only other option was him capturing their souls, as he had done so to others." Sakura said.

"You mean to say that she's trapped in that bubble?" Manny asked. "As long as Cerberion exists, yes." Naturia said. "Question, does that mean you're captured alive or is it possible that you're really *Gulp!* dead?" Frida asked. "Honestly, I'm not entirely sure myself." Naturia admitted. Aya then read Naturia's aura. At least tried to. "It looks like the dark magic of the bubble is blocking my powers." She noted. "So even you don't know!" Frida said. "Unfortunately." Aya said. "Dang!" Frida complained. "Yes, well, anyway, I am Phoenexus, a Phoenix Animarius." Phoenexus said. "I'm Deltoad, a Nile Delta Toad Animarius, and also a cousin of Toadus and Bufoam!" Deltoad said. "I'm Mormyron, a Mormyrus caschive, a.k.a. Eastern Bottlenose or Elephant Snout, which actually a Freshwater Elephant, Animarius!" Mormyron said. "I'm Toxobra, an Egyptian Cobra Animarius!" Toxobra said. "I'm Thalassodreg, a Thalassodromeus Animarius." Thalassodreg said. "I'm Deltadrome, a Deltadromeus Animarius!" Deltadrome said. "And I'm her boyfriend Carcharodontos, a Carcharodontosaurus Animarius!" Carcharodontos said. "And, what kind of dinosaurs are those three?" Frida asked in confusion.

"The Thalassodromeus was a Pterosaur that was native to what is today Brazil, while the Deltadromeus and Carcharodontosaurus, much like the Therizinosaurus were Theropods. Only unlike the Therizinosaurus, they were meat eaters." Lisa said. That made both Manny and Frida gulp in fright. "We have other Animarius allies, including Gorf-san's fiancee Axolota-chan, but because of a tracking chip the Animarius Empire placed on her in a way that we are unable to remove it, leaving the grounds of the temple the Lucharangers call their base is a huge risk, and the others are all over in Japan hiding out in a cave and working at a Shinto Shrine mine and Shin-kun's cousins study at." Sakura said. "Shinto Shrine?" Manny and Frida asked in confusion. "It's a Japanese Religion." Lisa said. "It's mostly centered around nature worship and revolves around supernatural entities called the kami, which are Japanese deities that are believed to inhabit all things, including forces of nature and prominent landscape locations!" She added.

"Shin-kun's cousin Zensuke-kun and my cousin Akari-chan are studying to be a Shinto Priest and Shrine Maiden." Sakura explained. "Oh, well good for them." Frida said. "And I am AkaRed, the Spirit that embodies the powers of every Super Sentai hero that wears the color Red, from AkaRanger to BunRed." AkaRed showing a vision of every Red Super Sentai hero in existence. "BunRed? Wait, has a new Sentai team been born already?" Ronnie Anne asked. "Yeah, the Bakuage Sentai Boonboomger, interesting group from what I've gathered, they have a car theme similar to the Turborangers and Carrangers, but their visors are tires." AkaRed said. "Plus, they also have a very important ally named Bundorio Bunderas, an alien mechanical lifeform who not only serves as their mechanic, but also has the ability to transform and enlarge himself into a giant semi-trailer truck called Boonboom Trailer, which also has a Gate Mode and serves as the main body of their team Mecha, Boonboomger Robo!" He added while showing everyone footage of Bundorio Bunderas as well as his transformation into the Boonboom Trailer and it's Gate Mode as well as his combination with Boonboom Offroad and Boonboom Wagon into Boonboomger Robo.

"Cool!" The guys said. "I'm Manny Rivera, also known as El Tigre." Manny said. "And I'm Frida Suarez, and this is of course, my partner..." Frida said. "Callocelotarling." The Alebrije said. "Or Callie as I've been calling her since that is such a mouthful and difficult to remember." Frida said. "Which is pretty much why we give our Alebrije partners nicknames as well." Ronnie Anne said. "Uh, aren't you forgetting something, like our introductions, dood?" Derrick asked, pointing to himself, the other three Prinnies, and Pazuzu. "Oh, right, over here are the Prinnies Arsene, Derrick, Elliott, and Zoruku, and our ally, Pazuzu, who's actually the Mesopotamian Demon God of the Western Wind." AkaRed said. "What kind of name is Arsene?" Frida asked in confusion. "It's French, dood." Arsene said. "Why do you guys keep saying 'dood'?" Manny asked. "It's Prinny rule number one, we have to end every sentence we speak with it, dood." Derrick said. "Doesn't that get annoying?" Frida asked. "Very." Fuka and Desco confirmed.

"And what exactly are Prinnies, other than the fact that they look like fanny pack-wearing blue penguins with peg legs, bat wings, and stitches on their upper bellies?" Manny asked in confusion. "Originally, we were humans, dood. But the lives we lead, weren't exactly angelic, dood. Arsene and I were Phantom Thieves, Derrick was a Car thief, and Elliott was a Jewel Thief who lead a double life as a Rapper, dood." Zoruku explained. "After we died, we each went to a place called the Afterlife Nexus, there we were judged for our actions in life, as a result, we were transformed into what you see before you, and, after being trained in a place called Hades, sentenced to servitude under one of the demon Overlords of a realm called Netherspace, dood." Elliott explained. "Though, in my case, after my training in Hades, I was sent to a heavenly realm called Celestia, where I was doing various chores for the angels living there, ranging from library work to cooking delicious meals, dood!" Zoruku said.

"The only reason we're up here is we were ordered to track down and capture a rogue Prinny who has allied with the Pecadiablos, who since we have no idea where their base is, isn't so easy, dood." Derick said. "Rogue Prinny?" Manny and Frida asked in confusion. "His name is Shockwing, he was a rogue Animarius soldier, until he was captured and turned into a familiar by my ancestor Ofui, he then began serving as my family's familiar, passed down through the generations, but unknown to any of us, he was secretly plotting to kill us and escape, he failed several times until..." Aya said, starting to tear up. "One day, he let a Tsetse Fly into the house where it bit my Mom, causing her to die of Sleeping Sickness, then he sabotaged my older sister's protection charms and brainwashed a Black Mamba into biting her, leading to her death." She said.

That made Manny and Frida gasp in shock and horror. "I know!" Aya said as Denkyem hugged her out of comfort. "By the way, Frida, how did you become a Lucharanger, if you don't mind me asking?" AkaRed asked. "Well you see, the other day, I found this strange gemstone..." Frida said.

Meanwhile...

Back in Miracle City, several more of the local supervillains, including El Oso (with his adoptive bear 'twin' brother Ossito), Senor Siniestro (Real name: Sergio, Manny and Frida's classmate, not to be confused with the Casagrandes' pet parrot of the same name), Dr. Chipotle Jr. (with his father Dr. Chipotle Sr. and grandfather Dr. Chipotle Sr. Sr., as well as the Guacamole Monster), the Cactus Kid, Titanium Titan, the Moustache Mafia (consisting of Don Baffi, Big Man, Knuckles, and Tony), General Chapuza (along with his grandson Che and his army of Zombies), Monsterzuma, Lady Lava, the Alebrije Monster, and the Squids, were gathering together where the Flock of Fury, El Mal Verde, Sartana of the Dead, Django of the Dead, and the Skeleton Bandito Army were. "So you're telling us that you managed to capture White Pantera, Puma Loco, and the Chief of Police?!" El Oso asked incredulously.

"Well, we had some help from allies from another dimension, but yes!" Black Cuervo said. "Imposible! We've all been trying for years!" Dr. Chipotle Sr. said in shock. "That's only because you didn't have..." Black Cuervo said, strapping her GaiaRiser to her waist and activating her Memory.

Raven!

Before inserting it into the riser.

Raven! GaiaRise!

Transforming into her Dopant form. "The right equipment." She said. That made all of the villains drop their jaws in shock, though Django was more attracted her new appearance to the point of letting out a wolf whistle. "Yes, it's truly impressive what scientists from another world are capable of. And that's not even the best part." Cuervo said as a Neo Lizardon came in wheeling a cart with some more GaiaRisers. "All it takes is one word from our new associate to his associates, and you guys can transform into Dopants as he calls them as well." She explained. "I'll take one, mang!" El Oso said eagerly. "Count me in!" Senior Sinestro said. "I want one too!" The Cactus Kid said. At the Animarius Castle, Mano once again heard his phone ringing. At the Animarius Castle, Mano once again heard his phone ringing. "Two Bears, two Zombies, three Cyborgs, three Krakens, Cactus, Desperado, Titanium, Skeleton, Lava, and Mustache, Mustache? What kind of people are in this world?" Mano read. Before shrugging and turning to the True Gaia Memory. As this was going on, Futaba was putting the Soul Cores into the Fruits from the Tree of Life. As soon as he did so, the fruits swelled up and revealed 11 Animarius soldiers who all have the symbol of the Mythical Army on their left shoulders. The first one was a male humanoid red fish with a head like that of a pig's with five half-foot-long barbels around his mouth (Hogarito). The second one was a male humanoid red-and-black striped snake with a head and sharp beak like that of a parrot and a tail like that of a crocodile (Velachifo). The third one was a female humanoid spider with a big abdomen that's colored black with red stripes and some red stripes on her eight limbs (Pinaviztla). The fourth one was a male humanoid brown snake with green stripes, huge deer antlers on his head, and rattle on the end of his tail (Mazantler). The fifth one was a male humanoid silver snake with burgundy stripes and a fleshy, colorful structure shaped like a Chīmalli a.k.a. Aztec Shield, complete with rows of feathers on the bottom, on his back (Chimalscale). The sixth one was a male humanoid glossy black snake with a huge head, blazing yellow eyes, a pair of beardlike appendages at the back similar to those of the barbel, and a tail that's split into two tails at the end (Tlildro). The seventh one was a male humanoid chocolatey brown snake with a structure on the center of his back that looks like a Jicara (a gourd chocolate cup) down to the last detail, with colorful designs and patterns on its smooth surface (Xicalchurn). The eighth one was a large male humanoid Caiman with webbed limbs like those of a Toad or Frog, a dorsal fin and tail like that of a fish, and twelve additional mouths on his joints, specifically two on his shoulder joints, two on his elbow joints, two on his wrist joints, two on his hip joints, two on his knee joints, and two on his ankle joints (Cipactlon). The ninth one was a male humanoid bird that had a large reddish eagle-like head with a feathery crest, a long slender blue-and-purplish body, a yellow beak, a green goose-like neck, a pair of large purple wings on his back, and short arms and legs ending in human-like hands (Atotolino). The tenth one was a male humanoid anaconda-like snake that's covered in a thick coat of hair, with mane set behind the head, and having a head that's shaped like a Calf with snake-like teeth and fangs in his mouth (Culebronk). Finally, the eleventh one was a male humanoid dog with shaggy black fur, legs ending in goat-like hooves, arms ending in three-fingered hands with goat hoof-like claws, and having a pair of large horns on his head that look like a mix between those of a bull and a goat (Maldejo).

"That was disturbing." Puma Loco noted as an unseen figure watched from afar. "Oh No! I thought this day would never come!" The figure said in worry. "We live again!" The Humanoid dog mixed with a goat said in realization. "But how?" The female humanoid black-and-red Spider asked in confusion. "Wait, are these the remains of Fruits from the Tree of Life?" The hairy Anaconda-like calf-headed snake asked in shock. "Indeed they are, Culebronk." King Draco said as he stepped through a portal accompanied by Cerberion. "*Gasp!* Your Majesty!" The Caiman with frog/toad limbs, fish tail and dorsal fin, and twelve additional mouths on his joints, said in joy before he and the other ten revived Animarius soldiers bowed down in respect and loyalty. "Oh no." The mysterious figure said in fear. "At ease, my soldiers of the Royal Guard!" King Draco said, prompting the eleven resurrected Animarius soldiers to stand back up. Once that was done, the six snakes noticed Ehecanado, Xiuhferno, and Maquizoom amongst the crowd of Animarius soldiers. "Big Brothers?!" The antlered snake, shielded snake, back appendaged split-tailed snake, and Jicara-backed snake asked in surprise. "Cousins Ehecanado, Xiuhferno, and Maquizoom?!" Culebronk and the parrot-headed crocodile-tailed snake asked in surprise. "Yes, it's us! Welcome back, Mazantler, Chimalscale, Tlildro, and Xicalchurn!" Ehecanado said. "You too, Culebronk and Velachifo!" Xiuhferno said as the six snakes went to the elder three Coatl Brothers and made twisting movements with their tails in celebration. Then, the Black humanoid goat-hooved horned dog took notice of Cerberion and was even more delighted to see him. "Cousin Cerberion!" He called out. "Maldejo, it is good to see you again, and..." Cerberion said, sniffing the air. "Uh oh." The figure said, trying to run away before anyone noticed he was there, unfortunately, he didn't run fast enough as Cerberion shot one of his chains in the direction of the figure, dragging him back to where everyone was.

That's when the figure was revealed to be a male humanoid dog with shaggy white fur, legs ending in goat-like hooves, arms ending in three-fingered hands with goat hoof-like claws, and having a pair of large branched horns on his head that look like a mix between a deer's antlers and a goat's horns (Buendejo). "Buendejo! Where have you been? Your Soul Core was the only one that wasn't in that museum!" Xiuhferno said. "Uh... Well..." The humanoid horned white dog with goat hooves, now identified as Buendejo, nervously started saying before Maldejo growled angrily at him. "I'll tell you what happened! That turncoat of a brother went and fled like a coward while the rest of us were fighting against this El Tigre person!" Maldejo angrily explained, much to everyone's shock. "Now that you mention it, it did seem like he was trying to run away before I grabbed him!" Cerberion noted.

"Care to explain why you went and abandoned us during our battle?" The pig-headed humanoid fish asked angrily. "And choose your answer carefully." Futaba warned as he and Moroha aimed the blades of their weapons at Buendojo. "Okay, fine, one reason why I did that was because I knew that facing off against that El Tigre character was going to be battle that can't be won no matter how many us there are, seriously, he's so darn powerful that he can reduce an Animarius to a Soul Core without much effort, so I'd rather not face off against him and be reverted into a Soul Core like everyone else! Another reason is to get away from you for good, Maldejo, because I was getting really sick and tired of you always goading and bullying me into doing things that I really don't want to do!" Buendejo answered, much to Maldejo's anger. "And you know what? I'm glad I've ran off, because ever since that day, I've been secretly using my abilities to help those in need instead of my own personal gain, like true heroes do!" He added in defiance, making King Draco himself very angry. King Draco growled before nodding to Futaba and Moroha. "There's no need for cowards in my Empire." King Draco said as Futaba pushed a button on his driver.

Knight, Divine Punishment!

While Moroha pressed a button on his scythe.

Rider Reaping!

Energy crackled around the two blades. "You know, for angels, you people don't seem very heavenly." White Pantera said before Futaba telekinetically tossed him into the back of the energy cage, zapping him. "Quiet, human!" Futaba said angrily. "Now, any last words before we obliterate you?" Moroha asked as he and Futaba prepared to strike Buendejo down. "Yeah, is that a flying woman wearing a silver mask, a silver sombrero, a matching leotard, boots, a right-handed silk glove, a big left-handed metal glove, and a red cape that I'm seeing?" Buendejo asked with a smirk, much to the two Shadow Angels' confusion. "Wait, what?" Futaba and Moroha asked in confusion, right before they were both sucker-punched by a metal left-handed glove. Causing them both to hit the energy cage, getting zapped, and allowing Puma Loco to laugh at the two Dark Riders.

"Not so tough now, aren't ya?" Puma Loco asked before laughing again. Moroha growled as he and Futaba got up. "Who dares strike the Shadow Angels?!" He asked angrily. "I Dare!" A woman's voice called out as everyone turned around to look at a brown-skinned hourglass-figured Latina woman in her 40's with green eyes and curly black hair with brown accents that's tied into a high ponytail, who's wearing a silver eye mask, a silver sombrero with three stars on each side, a matching leotard and boots, a right-handed silk glove that is longer than her powerful right handed metal one, which itself is mostly silver, but the middle has a skull and the wrist is black studded with silver spikes, and a red cape with a gold clasp with the initials 'PP' on the center, and a pair of gold earrings, as well as donning makeup consisting of light pink blush and ruby-red lipstick. "Maria!" White Pantera said excitedly, before nervously clearing his throat. "I mean, Plata Peligrosa, am I glad to see you!" He said, trying to save face. "You are pathetic, you know that, right?" Puma Loco asked his son.

That made White Pantera sulk in shame. "You won't be happy to see me if we don't take care of this before the hour is up, White Pantera." Plata Peligrosa reminded him. "Fortunately, I didn't come alone." She said as several other people dropped down. Specifically, they were the Seventh Samurai, his son Toshiro a.k.a. Cyber Sumo, The Iron Pinata, Flama Dama, Gordo Gordo, the League of Alliance Society (consisting of Silver Sombrero, Cosmic Cleopatra, and The Industrialist), El Cucharon, Giant Robot Sanchez, Frida's elder twin sisters Anita and Nikkita Suárez, and lastly Davi Roccoco a.k.a. the Albino Burrito. "Dad! Are you-" Anita said. "Okay?" Nikkita finished. "Other than being clearly injured and trapped in an energy cage, I'm okay, now that you two are here!" Emiliano said. "Evil doers! Free them this instant!" Seventh Samurai declared. "Never!" Futaba retorted. Before Johannes telekinetically lifted them all up off the ground.

"Whoa! Who turneded off the gravity here?!" The Industrialist asked in shock. "It's that weird looking guy!" The Albino Burrito realized. "In that case, I've got this! I summon... Spoons!" El Cucharon declared as he telepathically summoned huge swarms of metal spoons from all over Miracle City and then telepathically directed to attack and cover the villains in them. Unfortunately, it wasn't very hard for them to get the spoons off. "Seriously? Spoons?" Futaba asked in annoyance. "This is why none of us ever took you seriously back when you were a villain, Cucharon!" Puma Loco said. "Sorry!" El Cucharon apologized. "Hey, does anyone else-" Nikkita started. "See a portal opening up in the sky?" Anita finished. "Huh?" White Pantera, Puma Loco, and Emiliano asked in confusion before everyone looked up to see a portal in the sky. "Oh, you've got to be kidding me." King Draco said in realization as the Vectors and Alebrije Mechs flew out of the portal.

"What in the world are those things?!" The Iron Pinata asked in shock and confusion. "Are those Vectors?" Otoha asked in shock, recognizing the jets. "Unfortunately." The other Shadow Angels, sans Golshi, confirmed. "What about those creatures?" Otoha asked. "The Alebrije mechs, which means that they're also here." Futaba said in annoyance as King Draco growled. "Grab the prisoners so we can make a tactical retreat!" He ordered, pointing to the energy cages. "At once, your Majesty!" The Animarius soldiers said. "In the meantime, Otoha, was it? Would you kindly show our little friends up there what you're capable of?" King Draco asked Otoha. "Certainly! It's been a long time after all!" Otoha said. "So this is Miracle City, huh?" Lincoln asked. "Yep, home sweet home!" Manny said within Vector LL. "The fact that it lies at the base of a clearly active Volcano is concerning!" Lisa said as she and the rest of the Loud Sisters, Fuka, Desco, and Nellie rode in Vector Jewel while the Animarius Allies, AkaRed, and Panopticon were in Vector Anansi, Shintomaru, Edge, and Aden were in Vector LL.

"Well, the actual reason why it's called Miracle City is mainly because of how it still stays a somewhat decent city despite the extremely high crime rate!" Frida said. "By the way, Aya, thanks again for that little gift before we left, I can't wait to see the looks on Anita and Nikkita's faces when they see my new look!" Frida said with a chuckle. "No problem, and if they're interested, I can whip up a couple more for them as well!" Aya said. "Eh, why not? They're family after all, in spite of them looking down upon me and teasing me for being different from them!" Frida said. "Though, I sometimes pull pranks on them, like the times I've glued them together!" She added with a snicker. "How old are they, by the way? The Potion only works on girls 10 and up or going through early puberty." Aya said. "15." Frida answered. "In that case, they'll both gain H-Cups, meaning that they'll be two sizes bigger than you!" Aya said. Frida blinked in shock. "Eh, that's fine, I guess." She shrugged before Otoha struck Vector LL with her body as she flew up.

"Holy Shamoly! What just hit us?!" Lincoln asked in shock and confusion as he was trying to get Vector LL back into stability. "It's one of those weird angel people!" Manny said as Vector LL straightened out and everyone saw Otoha. "Lisa?" Lori asked as Lisa pulled up files that Zen Fudo gave her on the computer. "Musical Angel Otoha." Lisa read. "And what exactly gave her such a title?" Ronnie Anne asked in confusion. "It says here she's capable of playing the Soul Transmission Song which allows a Shadow Angel to merge with a Cherubim. Plus, she has the ability to use her singing to hypnotize masses of humans into being captured and absorbed by the Harvest Beasts, which were bioengineered giant creatures that helped the Shadow Angels collect Prana for their Tree of Life! It also says she was particularly close to Toma, sticking by his side after Apollonius betrayed the Shadow Angels for Celiane." Lisa read. "You think she knows that Toma got reborn and now peacefully resides in Zen Fudo's body, yet?" Leni asked.

Otoha growled at this and wrapped her serpentine tail around Vector Jewel, starting to grip it like a constrictor. "If she didn't before, she definitely does now, Leni-neechan!" Sakura said in fright before Lincoln fired one of Vector LL's rockets at Otoha's serpentine tail. Unfortunately, Otoha saw that coming and unwrapped her tail before flying away, causing Vector LL's rockets to hit Vector Jewel accidentally. "Oops, sorry girls!" Lincoln called. "Dang It, Stinkin', Watch Where You're Firing At!" Lynn angrily yelled. "Hey, you girls are the ones who insisted on coming on this mission!" Lincoln pointed out. That made the Loud Sisters flinch. Otoha then chuckled before Cherubim Ser Lu Kubera appeared before Otoha performed the Soul Transmission Song allowing her to merge with the Cherubim who then fired an energy beam that caused the Vectors and Alebrije Mechs to crash into the ground, thankfully not hurting anyone or anything.

"Everyone all right?" Lincoln asked. Everyone said they were. "But it looks like the bad guys are getting away!" Frida noted as everyone looked to see Otoha's Cherubim flying away with Draco and his army nowhere to be seen. "*Groan!* Can this day get any worse?!" Manny asked in complaint. "We'll catch up with them later, for now, we need to regroup and figure out where to go from here." Lincoln said as the Vectors beamed their passengers down to the ground where the Riders and Manny returned to their civilian identities while the Alebrije mechs returned to their human forms before the Lucharangers did the same. "Manny!/Frida!" Three voices called as Plata Peligrosa, Anita, and Nikkita rushed over. "Mom? What are doing in your Plata Peligrosa identity?" Manny asked in confusion. "I'll explain in a minute, but can you help me remove my glove? I lost track of time and now I realize I only have about two minutes left, and at that point is when I start slowly losing the desire to remove them!" Plata Peligrosa said frantically, pointing specifically at her big metal left glove.

"Oh, right!" Manny said, pulling the glove off his mother's hand. Once that happened Plata Peligrosa changed back into her true identity of Maria Rivera, with her eyes turning back to their original brown color, her curly hair now freely untied and let down, and her costume magically turning back into her civilian clothes, which consisted of a lime-green top, a two-tone pink skirt, and dark maroon high-heels. "Oh, that's so much better, I swear, that hour goes by faster every time!" Maria said worriedly. "Glad you're back to normal, Mom!" Manny said. "Frida, there-" Anita started. "You are! Where-" Nikkita said. "Have you been? What's-" Anita asked. "That thing on your shoulder?" Nikkita said before they both noticed that Frida now had F cup breasts. "And since when did you have those?" They both asked in shock. That made Frida chuckle at her older sisters' shock. "Thank goodness we don't talk like that." Lana told Lola, noting the Suarez twins' habit of finishing each other's sentences.

"Yeah, even I find that weird!" Lola noted. "Tell me about it." Frida said as the others that were with Maria in the rescue attempt rushed over. "Manny! Frida! Thank goodness, you're okay!" Albino Burrito said. "Hey, guys, we have a lot to talk about." Manny said.

Enough Time To Explain Everything Later...

"Fortunately, they are willing to help us against these guys, turns out they have a lot of experience in dealing with them." Manny finished explaining. "So, that gemstone you found-" Anita said. "Has allowed you to turn into some kind of Luchador superhero?" Nikkita asked. "Pretty much!" Frida said, scratching Callocelotarling behind the ear. "And what about those..." Anita said. "Huge breasts you have now?!" Nikkita asked in confusion. "That would be because of this beauty enhancement potion my family has made for the last 5,000 years. Like I told Frida, I can whip you girls up some later if you're interested." Aya said. "Oooh!" Anita and Nikkita said at once with interest. "Oooh!" Anita and Nikkita said at once with interest. "Yeah, you two should have seen Manny's reaction when he saw my F-Cups popping out instantly!" Frida said with a chuckle as a flashback had started, where Aya just made a potion and gave the calabash containing it to Frida. "So all I have to do is drink this?" Frida asked. "And once you do, you'll go from flat as a pancake to that." Aya said, pointing to Sakura.

"Whoa! Sweet!" Frida said as she then uncorked the calabash and drank down the whole potion in seconds. "Mmm, Tasty!" Frida said in delight, right before she started glowing in a bright pink light. Once that happened, Frida instantly blossomed into F-Cups, which also caused her sleeveless white shirt open up a tear in the upper center, showing off some of her cleavage. As soon as the light died down, Frida looked at her newly grown breasts in awe and amazement. "Holy Chalupa! This looks better on me than I thought! And it feels good too! Like a pair of soft yet firm pillows attached to my chest!" Frida said in awe while touching her newly grown breasts. "Yeah, it is pretty amazing." Aya said. "Uh, Frida-chan, do you want to change into a different shirt, since there's an open tear on the upper center of it that's exposing some of your cleavage?" Sakura asked. "Nah, I'm okay with what I'm wearing right now, since it's still holding, if you what I mean! Besides, I don't mind the tear, since it'll obviously prove to my sisters that these new Pechos of mine are real and not fake! Plus, the torn shirt looks good on my outfit, since I'm an aspiring punk rock girl and all!" Frida said, much to Luna's surprise. "Wait, you're a punk rock girl?" Luna asked. "Yeah! In fact, I'm the lead singer and guitarist of my own Punk Rock Band called the Atomic Sombreros, alongside my fellow punk rock girls Rosa, who's the bassist, and Teeny, who's the drummer!" Frida explained. "Why do you ask?" She asked in confusion.

"Luna-neechan is also a Rock Musician." Sakura explained. "Say what?" Frida asked in surprise. "Yeah, it's true, little dudette! Also, like you, I'm the lead singer and guitarist of my own Rock Band called the Moon Goats, with my girlfriend Sam being the bassist and backup singer, and our friends Mazzy and Sully being the drummer and keyboardist respectively!" Luna explained. "We've got to figure out a way to do a collab sometime!" Frida said excitedly. "Yeah! I was thinking that too!" Luna said in equal excitement. Aya chuckled at that before noticing Manny with an awestruck look on his face which Aya didn't need to use her powers to know it was at Frida. "Uh, Frida, you might want to take a look at Manny here!" Aya said, gaining Frida's attention. "Really? What is it?" Frida asked before noticing Manny's face. "Oh! You like my new look?" Frida asked while striking a sexy pose, to which Manny only responded by saying "Homina, Homina, Homina!" while still awestruck. Frida laughed as the flashback ended. "It was hilarious! And kind of adorable." She said, muttering that last part. "Funny, Rodolfo acted the same way when we first met." Maria said with a chuckle. That made Manny blush in embarrassment. "Who's Rodolfo?" Leni asked in confusion. "That's my Dad's real name!" Manny said. "Oh, that makes sense." Leni said.

Later...

Everyone was trying to figure out what to do. "Okay, so from what Manny and Frida tell us, we're dealing with Animarius Soldiers, Dark Riders, Shadow Angels, Dopants, and Zodiarts." Lincoln said. "Don't forget about El Mal Verde!" Manny said. "Who?" Leni asked in confusion. "He's this huge, hulking monstrosity of a Bandito that eats superheroes for Breakfast, Lunch, and Dinner, literally!" Frida explained. "Yeah! About ten years ago, three superheroes were eaten by that guy in an attempt to fight him! My dad tried to fight El Mal Verde as well, but he ended up having to get away from him after realizing that he can't win and he'd didn't want to leave me and my mom behind!" Manny said. Maria started hyperventilating at the memory. "Uh..." Lincoln said. "Don't worry, the very thought of somebody getting hurt, especially my dad and I, makes her tend to do this when this kind of talk occurs." Manny said. Unbeknownst to any of them, two other figures were watching from afar.

They were two tall fourteen-year-old twins, one boy and one girl, who had fair light skin and red hair, the boy having short shoulder-length hair and the girl having long hair tied into a ponytail, while both of them wore white body suits, the girl's suit coming with a skirt, that have black sleeves, crossbelts, and boots, yellow gloves, brown eagle wing-themed capes, black belt buckles with a yellow capital letter 'E' on them, and eagle head-themed helmets (specifically brown helmets with clear yellow visors shaped like eagle beaks) that a white capital letter 'E' on the foreheads. And Mischievous smiles were spread on their faces. "This is perfect! We'll 'help' them, but in the end, take all the glory for ourselves!" The girl whispered. "And it will be easy, because who in their right mind would believe someone who tried to destroy the city or anyone associated with him?" The boy whispered.

They then both chuckled very quietly. Before walking away, unbeknownst to them, however, Sid's enhanced hearing allowed her to hear every word. "Hey, Manny, remember those Golden Eagle Twins you told us about? I think I just overheard them planning on 'helping' us and taking all the glory, saying no one in their right mind would believe someone who tried to destroy the city or anyone associated with him." Sid whispered to him. "Knowing those two glory-hogging fakers, it doesn't surprise me." Manny muttered. "Makes me wonder if their parents know anything about their behavior!" Lisa noted. "We don't know anything about their mom, but apparently their Dad was Capitan Águila, one of the superheroes devoured by El Mal Verde." Manny said. "Clearly he wasn't able to instill the same kind of lessons my Dad has taught me, oh what I wouldn't give to have them touch the Bronze Boots of Truth in front of the entire city!" Manny added.

"Yeah, even with the whole 'undecided' thing you have, at least you're more of a real hero than those two!" Frida said. "Undecided? Whatcha talking about?" Lynn asked in confusion. "I come from a long line of people on opposite sides of the good vs evil debate, some people like my Dad are Superheroes, others like my Grandpapi are Supervillains, but me, I can't make up my mind who's footsteps to follow, something that has only ever happened to one person in my family, the original El Tigre, and it drove him insane!" Manny explained. "Yeah, you should have seen him when we first visited him in the Land of the Dead! He was nuttier than squirrel poo! Seriously, he keeps shifting personalities between a maniacal laughing evil person and a good-natured hero!" Frida said. "Sounds like your ancestor has a serious case of Dissociative Identity Disorder!" Lisa said. Manny and Frida blinked in confusion.

"*Sigh!* Formally known as Split Personality Disorder or Multiple Personality Disorder, it's a type of mental disorder that is usually a reaction to trauma as a way to help a person avoid bad memories! Dissociative Identity Disorder is characterized by the presence of two or more distinct personality identities! Sometimes, each personality may have a unique name, personal history, and characteristics from one another!" Lisa explained. "Oh, yeah, that could explain a lot." Manny and Frida said. "Speaking of which, Manny, correct me, if I'm wrong, but is it possible that your own indecisiveness could be partially because you're actually autistic? (Fun Fact, This Is Something Jorge R. Gutierrez, The Creator Of "El Tigre Adventures Of Manny Rivera" Himself Has Confirmed, Something That Manny Has In Common With, As It Turns Out, Both Hallucigenia77 And Myself)" Lisa asked, making not only Manny and Frida, but also Maria, gasp in shock and confusion. "Autistic? What does that mean?" Manny asked in shock and confusion. "It describes a person on the Autism Spectrum, which is a category of neurodevelopmental disorders ranging in severity, from the looks of things, you're possibly on the lower end of severity." Lisa said.

"Lower end? Is that a good thing?" Manny asked. "Compared to some of the higher end ones, it is." Lisa said. "How does anyone get autism in the first place?" Frida asked in confusion. "The Autism Spectrum doesn't have a single known cause! In fact, because of it being rather complex and the fact that symptoms and severity vary, there are probably many causes, with both genetics and the environment possibly playing a role in it! Some people would be born autistic while other times they would develop it over time, which could either be caused by stress, low birth weight, or possibly even air pollution!" Lisa explained, much to the shock of Maria. "Air Pollution?!" Maria asked before hyperventilating again. "Although there was this thing a few decades back linking Autism to vaccines, but it has since been disproven, although it still has some very strong believers." Lisa added.

"Autism isn't fatal, is it?" Manny asked in worry. "No, not at all, in fact there are a lot of famous people who are either confirmed or in the case of historically famous people, rumored to have it." Lisa said. That made Manny, Frida, and even Maria sigh in relief. As this was going on, Stephano was thinking. "Maybe just one more person should add a little more fun to the mix. Hey, Cuervo! Do you know anyone else who might want in on this action?" He asked Black Cuervo. "Well...there is one more person with enough hatred for Manny and Frida that should make it more interesting." Black Cuervo admitted, pulling out her phone and showing Stephano a picture of a tall man wearing a black suit with a mustache yelling at Manny and Frida. "His name is Chakal, he's the Vice Principal of the school we attend, and he hates their guts!" She explained. "Really? And why and how so?" Stephano asked with interest. "Apparently they cut off part of his mustache once, but mainly it's because he hates trouble makers and literally every other school day he tries to find an excuse to discipline them, which isn't really that hard. And to be fair, pretty much the entire school, even the faculty, hates his guts." Black Cuervo said. "Discipline, huh?" Stephano said.

"How can I contact this Vice Principal Chakal, if I may ask?" He asked politely. Meanwhile, a man fitting the description of the picture Cuervo showed Stephano was tossing darts at a picture of Manny and Frida taped to a dartboard. "Oooh, that Rivera boy and that Suarez girl has been causing me so much trouble and misery for as long as they've started attending Leone Middle School! Every time I've tried to discipline them, put em in detention, even tried to have them expelled one time, they never ever stop being such disrespectful, disruptive, and destructive little pranksters!" He angrily ranted. "Perhaps I can help change that." Stephano said as he picked up another dart, surprising him, causing him to turn around in surprise, tossing the dart, but Stephano caught it. "Nice reflex, but mine's better!" Stephano said. "Who are you and what are you doing here?!" The man asked in shock and confusion. "My name is Stephano Inverso, and I am here with a little proposition." Stephano said, presenting the man with a Gaia Riser and a black Gaia Memory with a capital 'D' made up of a ruler and a pair of handcuffs with the word 'Discipline' in the corner.

"What proposition?" The man asked. "With these items, you'll be able to do whatever you can think of when it comes to disciplining the two youths you were trying to hit on that dartboard." Stephano said. Then, getting the hint, the man made a wicked grin. "I'm listening!" He said eagerly.

Meanwhile...

"Okay, Shin-kun and AkaRed-san should be back soon with some backup from the other world." Sakura said, reading a text she got from Shintomaru. "Hopefully it will be enough, especially since both King Draco himself and Hell's Watchdog are here!" Buendejo said in concern, scaring Sakura. "C-C-C-Cerberion is here?" She said frightened before turning around. "Come on, come on!" She muttered as her birthmark briefly flashed before flickering out. "Mou! Not again!" She said. "What's..." Anita said. "...her deal?" Nikkita finished. "Hell's Watchdog is the nickname for Cerberion, a powerful and dangerous Cerberus themed Animarius, who is responsible for the deaths of Sakura's parents, older brother, and unborn little brother and sister." Lincoln explained. "He didn't even care about that last part!" Sakura said sadly. "Yeah, that sounds like Hell's Watchdog, alright, he's never been one to care about the details." Buendejo said.

"Question, Buendejo, is it, are you somehow related to Cerberion, given that you're both dog-like?" Aurachnid asked. "We're cousins." Buendojo admitted. "And so is my evil twin brother Maldejo!" He added. "Which also makes them cousins of us." Hieracos said. "And first cousins of me and Phixia!" Andros realized, taking Buendejo by surprise. "Andros and Phixia are the twin children of Sphinxia and General Leo." Crios explained. "Since when did those two have children?" Buendejo asked in confusion. "Well, they...you know, about 5,000 years ago, but due to a spell our mother cast on herself, we weren't born until about 10 years ago." Phixia explained. "That definitely sounds like Cousin Sphinxia!" Buendejo noted. "In a way, it was kind of fate, since on that day, his girlfriend and my boyfriend were also born in Ghana." Phixia said, lovingly caressing her Linked Hearts necklace. "My own boyfriend and I were born on that day too!" Aya said. "Wow, talk about a crazy coincidence." Callocelotarling said. "Yeah, I guess you could say that." Shintomaru said as he and AkaRed stepped out of an Aurora Curtain. "Shin-kun, AkaRed-san!" Sakura said. "As promised, we have brought with us some backup." Shintomaru said as several figures stepped out of the curtain.

Among the people were several familiar ones, specifically Soji Tendo, Arata Kagami, Daisuke Kazama, Shotaro Hidari, Phillip, Ryu Terui, Gentaro Kisaragi, Ryusei Sakuta, Nadeshiko, Shinnosuke Tomari, Go Shijima, Takeru Tenkuji, Makoto Fukami, his sister Kanon, Alain, Sento Kiryu, Ryuga Banjo, Kazumi Sawatari, and Gentoku Himuro. "Man, am I glad to see you guys again!" Sakura told her Kamen Rider Sempais as several more people including four robots, Zocks Goldsuiker, his sister Flint, and their brothers Cuttanner and Ricky. The new individuals in question were none other than Takayuki Hiba, Kinya Samejima, Asao Hyou, Hokuto Dan, Ryu Hoshikawa, Yosuke Shima, Kosaku Nango, Rei Tachibana, Kaito Goshikida, Juran, Gaon, Magine, Vroon, Stacy, and Isao Goshikida. "Allow me to introduce you, from the Taiyo Sentai Sun Vulcan, VulEagle Hiba Takayuki, VulShark Samejima Kin'ya, and VulPanther Hyou Asao. From the Kagaku Sentai Dynaman, DynaRed Dan Hokuto, DynaBlack Hoshikawa Ryuu, DynaBlue Shima Yousuke, DynaYellow Kousaku Nangou, and DynaPink Tachibana Rei. And you've already met the Goldsuikers, also from the Kikai Sentai Zenkaigers, Zenkaizer Gohikida Kaito, ZenaiJuran Juran, ZenkaiGaon Gaon, ZenkaiMagine Magine, ZenkaiVroon Vroon, Staceasar Stacy, and Hakaizer Kaito's father Goshikida Isao." AkaRed said. "Don't forget me-tune!" A voice as the Zenkaigers' robot parrot ally Secchan flew in.

"Oh, right, and that's the Zenkaiger's robotic bird ally Secchan!" AkaRed said. "Kawaii!" Sakura and Yui said at the sight of the robot parrot. "K-k-k-Kawaii-tune?!" Secchan asked with a blush. "Anyway, it's a good thing you guys are here as well, based on what Manny and Frida told us, we figured out why Cicadeath and Flygor broke into ZECT HQ, turns out it was to turn Moroha into a Dark Rider with powers similar to you guys." Lincoln told Soji, Arata, and Daisuke. "Nani?!" Arata asked in shock. "Yeah, he's calling himself 'Kamen Rider Chaeta', whatever that means." Frida said. "Chaeta is an alternate name for the Cat-Eye Mantis." Lisa explained. "Cat-Eye Mantis?" Lincoln asked in confusion. "Scientific name: Heterochaeta orientalis, also known as the Giant African Stick Mantis, due to it's ability to mimic parts of branches like a Stick Insect would! The name Cat-Eye Mantis comes from the fact that it has angular, feline-like eyes with horns that appear almost as little cat ears atop its head!" Lisa explained. The mention of the word 'Cat' made Rei flinch a little. "Rei-sempai, is something wrong?" Yui asked. "Yeah, I probably should have mentioned this, she's afraid of cats." AkaRed said.

"Does that include lions, tigers, leopards, jaguars, cheetahs, cougars, and other wild cats, or is it just domestic cats she's afraid of?" Phixia asked. Rei then took notice of Callocelotarling, and she immediately freaked out. "KYAH! NEKO!" Rei screamed in fright. "Okay, I see what you mean." Callocelotarling said as Manny and Asao chuckled nervously knowing their Tiger and Panther motifs. "You can relax, Rei-sempai! Callie-chan isn't a house cat, she's part-Ocelot!" Sakura assured Rei. "Oh, sorry." Rei said. "And don't worry about it, I'm the same with *Gulp* Osusemebachi." She said, eyes wide at the mention of the insect. "Osuse-what now?" Manny asked in confusion. "Asian Giant Hornets, Sakura-chan nearly died after being attacked by a swarm of them as a kid." Shintomaru explained. Everyone who didn't know that factoid gasped in shock and horror while Sakura whimpered at the memory. "It was like a cloud of death, the buzzing was all I could hear, the doctors estimated that if I wasn't rescued as soon as I was, I would have died." Sakura said terrified before Lincoln hugged her and kissed her on top of the head.

"It's okay, Sakura, I'm here!" Lincoln said in a soothing tone, calming Sakura down. Sakura smiled as she melted into her boyfriend's warm embrace. "Aw, now that is kawaii!" Rei said as Kanon, Flint, and Magine nodded in agreement. Just then, Asao noticed Buendejo as well as the pair of Doberman Pinschers that Anita and Nikkita were holding on metal chain leashes, causing him to shout out "INU!" in fright before jumping up high enough to land on a branch of a nearby tree. "Yeah, he's afraid of dogs." AkaRed said, making Subaru chuckle nervously knowing from a technical standpoint that he was part magic dog. "Kinda funny, since his animal motif is a panther, which is a wild cat, and everyone knows that cats are known to be afraid of dogs!" Takayuki noted. "Yeah, plus, Asao has been afraid of dogs of all types, even CC!" Shinya noted. "Who's CC?" Lincoln asked in confusion. "A dog cared by for our allies, the Arashiyamas, that could talk." Takayuki explained, showing a picture of said dog. "Awww! Kawaii!" Sakura, Yui, Nadeshiko, Kanon, and even Rei gushed at the photo of the small talking dog. "So Cute!" Frida, Stella, Ronnie Anne, Sid, Nikki, Jalissa, Azalee, Aquene, Carlota, Adelaide, and the Loud Sisters equally gushed. "An actual talking dog, like Scooby Doo, and not a robot, right?" Clyde asked. "Exactly! He was trained by Arashiyama Misa to speak in fluent Japanese, he's that intelligent!" Shinya said. "Plus, sometime after the final battle against our enemies Black Magma, CC got together a small female dog, and had puppies, who were also intelligent enough to speak like humans! Plus, those puppies grew up, most of them went to different families, except for one who stayed with his parents and the Arashiyamas, and then they all bred with different dogs to have puppies of their own! In shorter terms, CC now has been having descendants for the last few decades, and I believe that the current generation of CC's descendants have puppies that are available for adoption if anybody wants them!" Takayuki said before pulling out a photo featuring a litter of puppies that heavily resembled CC to everyone.

"EEEEE! I WANT ONE, I WANT ONE!" Lola said in excitement. Suddenly, a feather similar to the one that entered the Rivera home hit the ground startling everyone. "It's from the Flock of Fury again." Frida said, opening the note that came tied to the feather. "They're telling us to meet them and the Animarius Empire in the Volcano!" She read. "Don't you mean 'at'?" Lincoln asked. "No, in, there's a small arena inside, Sartana of the Dead once used it for a little tournament to decide who would get her power after she retired." Manny said. "Although, it turned out she had lied about her retirement while the tournament itself was actually not only a trick to imprison the other villains, which I'm guessing is to get rid of the competition, if you know what I'm getting at, but also an attempt to have Manny turn against his own family and join her alongside her grandson Django of the Dead to rule the whole world!" Frida explained. "And I thought Buccowaus was crazy!" Gaon said. "I'm sure he was nothing compared to the Omnipotent God." Asao said. "Or pretty much the entire Jashinka Empire." Nangou said. "Well, we'd better get going!" Lincoln said.

Meanwhile...

"At least we're no longer in that cage." Rodolfo said as he, Emiliano, and Puma Loco were chained to the Volcano wall. "Yes, but now we're shackled to a wall and hanging above boiling hot lava!" Puma Loco said while looking down at the hot lava below them. "Yes, but do not worry, I have faith that rescue will come soon!" Rodolfo said, making Futaba laugh. "You humans are all the same, putting faith in such ridiculous notions!" He said. "Just what is your problem?" Emiliano asked. "Humanity! That's my problem! Long ago, the Shadow Angels ruled over humans like the puny little insects that you are, we were feared, but none more so than Apollonius and Toma. But then one day, Apollonius betrayed us! He fell for a human named Celiane! And if that wasn't bad enough, 12,000 years later, I was captured and killed by some humans wanting to use my feathers for a soldier and some weapons to use against us!" Futaba said angrily. "But now thanks to Drako over there, the Shadow Angels live again, and I am free to take my revenge on the likes of your kind!" Futaba said maliciously. "Over our dead bodies, Futaba!" Lincoln said as he and the others rushed into the volcano.

"Ah, I see you got the Flock of Fury's note!" Futaba said. "Manny!/Frida!" Rodolfo and Emiliano said. "You're Alive!" Puma Loco said. "Wait, something looks different about you, Frida. Did you get a haircut or something?" He asked. "Uh, no, it's not a haircut!" Frida said. "Don't worry too much about it, Frida." Manny said. "Set them free this instant!" He told Futaba. "I'm afraid you're going to have to get through my little friends first." Futaba said as Moroha, the other Dark Riders, as well as the Animarius Soldiers, Zodiarts and Flock of Fury arrived. As soon as Cuervo arrived, she immediately noticed Frida's chest. "What?! Since do you have big breasts now?!" Black Cuervo asked Frida in shock and confusion. "Since I drank a magic potion made by a Werehyena." Frida said casually. "Were... hyena?" Black Cuervo asked in confusion. "It's like being a werewolf, but instead of a wolf during a full moon, I turn into a Spotted Hyena at will." Aya explained, demonstrating said ability.

"AIYEE! MI CORAZON (MY HEART)!" Lady Gobbler exclaimed while clutching her chest in fright. "Well either way, it doesn't matter, because..." Cuervo said, activating her memory and placing it in her riser.

Raven! GaiaRise!

Transforming into the Raven Dopant. "These are clearly bigger!" She said, gesturing to her chest. "Well at least I don't have to transform into a weird bird thing-" Frida said. "The correct term is Dopant." Phillip said. "Whatever, to get mine!" Frida pointed out. "Hmph! Say whatever you want, pipsqueak!" Black Cuervo said indifferently. "Hey! I'm not a pipsqueak!" Frida said in offense. "Uh, yes, you are! I'm taller than you now!" Black Cuervo said. "Oh, and guess what?" She said as Voltura and Lady Gobbler took on their own Dopant forms. "We're not the only ones with grudges against you two and them here today!" Black Cuervo said as the villains they recruited and Vice Principal Chakal appeared. "Oh no! El Mal Verde!" Manny said. "Sartana of the Dead!" Frida said. "Django of the Dead!" Manny said. "El Oso!" Frida said. "Senor Siniestro!" Manny said. "Dr. Cheesecake Jr., Sr., and Sr. Sr.!" Frida said, much to the irritation of the three Chipotles. "IT'S CHIPOTLE!" The three Chipotles yelled angrily. "Shouldn't that be Dr. Chorizos I, II, and III?" Aurachnid asked in confusion.

"How many times do we have to say it? IT'S CHIPOTLE! Seriously, how can anyone easily forget that?!" Dr. Chipotle Jr. asked angrily. "What does Chipotle even mean?" Adelaide asked in confusion. "It's a type of Chili pepper that's been smoked, with an average SHU score of 17-37,000." Lisa said over the comm link. "In layman's terms, it's incredibly spicy!" She added. "Yeah, anyway, the Guacamole Monster!" Manny said. "The Alebrije Monster!" Frida said. "General Chapuza, Che, and the Zombies!" Manny said. "The Moustache Mafia!" Frida said. "Monsterzuma!" Manny said. "The Squids!" Frida said. "The Cactus Kid!" Manny said. "Lady Lava!" Frida said. "And the Titanium Titan!" Manny said. "Oh no!" Frida said, pointing Manny in the direction of the last person they wanted to see. "VICE PRINCIPAL CHAKAL!" They said before screaming. "Wait, why's he here? He's not a supervillain, he's just angry all the time." Frida pointed out. "True, but he does hate you two, and that's good enough for me." Stephano said as Chakal chuckled and strapped a GaiaRiser to his waist.

"I don't like where this is going!" Manny said in worry. "You'll like this even worse, El Tigre!" El Oso said, pulling out a GaiaRiser of his own. He then strapped it onto his waist before pulling it out another one and strapped it onto the stomach of Ossito. Django, the three Dr. Chipotles, Senior Sinestro, The Cactus Kid, Titanium Titan, Don Baffi, the Squids, Lady Lava, General Chapuza, and Che did the same as well. "Oh Crud!" Manny and Frida said in fright. They all then pulled out Gaia Memories and activated them.

Bear! X2
Cyborg! X3
Desperado!
Cactus!
Titanium!
Skeleton!
Mustache!
Lava!
Zombie! X2
Kraken! X3
Discipline!

"That's got to be the most terrifying rendition of the word Discipline I've ever heard." Frida said. "Agreed!" Manny said with a shudder. El Oso and Ossito then inserted their Gaia Memories into their Risers.

Bear! GaiaRise!

That caused both of them to morph into completely identical-looking monstrous muscular humanoid Grizzly Bears with spiked up brown fur, large bony spikes protruding from their backs, bony blades on their elbows, large sharp claws on their hands and feet, and sharp teeth in their mouths. The three Dr. Chipoltles did the same.

Cyborg, GaiaRise!

That caused all three of them to morph into tall identical-looking techno-organic humanoids with high-tech metal helmets that had round cybernetic right eyes and angular robotic left eyes, a dome on top with an exposed brain inside, organic mouths with sharp reptilian teeth, high-tech cybernetic left arms with sharp claws and wrist-mounted laser blasters, techno-organic right arms with pumping pistons in the elbows and shoulders, metallic chestplates with glowing green energy reactors in the centers, a robotic right leg with Segway-like wheels, a techno-organic left leg with metallic spikes jutting from the knee and ankle, and a high-tech jetpack with metallic bird-like wings, four robotic tentacles resembling those of Doctor Octopus from Marvel Comics, and shoulder-mounted cannons. Senor Sinestro laughed before placing the Desperado memory in his Riser.

Error!

"What in Tarnation?! Why's mine not working?!" Senor Siniestro asked in confusion and annoyance. "Simple, you have the Gaia Riser on a mech suit, unfortunately, they need to be used on flesh, or bone in Django's case." Stephano said in annoyance as the Desperado memory shot out, hitting Senor Sinestro in the face, knocking his hat and mustache off. That's when Senor Siniestro's true face to be that of a very small 13-year-old Italian boy with chubby cheeks, short brown hair, thick eyebrows, and a crown-like hat on top. "Dagnabbit!" He complained in a high childish/teen-like voice, causing Manny and Frida to gasp in shock upon recognizing his face. "Sergio?!" Manny and Frida asked in shock and confusion. "Yeah, yeah, yeah, it's me!" Sergio said as his mech suit opened up allowing him to hop out, making all the villains, minus Dr. Chipotle Jr, who already knows Sergio is really Senor Siniestro, and Vice Principal Chakal, who was simply just shocked and confused, laugh at the little boy. "The big bad Senor Sinestro is actually a preschooler?!" Puma Loco asked while laughing. "I'M IN THE SEVENTH GRADE, YOU OLD COOT!" Sergio said angrily. "I feel your pain." Kairos said. "But, why, Sergio?" Manny asked. "Yeah, why go around in a mech suit and pretend to be an adult cowboy supervillain?" Frida asked in confusion. "Let me ask you this, does this look familiar to you?" Sergio asked, pulling out a broom horse.

"Oh! I remember! That's Mr. Broomy Horse! You had that with when me and Frida first met, back when you were wearing a... Cowboy... Costume!" Manny said, slowly starting to remember the day he and Frida first met Sergio. "Wait, you're still upset about that? Kid it was an accident, you were riding into school on a broom horse, and dressed like a cowboy for crying out loud, how could I not think you were an Elementary school kid?" Manny pointed out as Sergio removed the GaiaRiser from his mech suit and put it on his waist. "It was not just that! Ever since he was a young child, I had always dreamed of being a cowboy, so I moved to Miracle City in order to fulfil that dream! But my first day at Leone Middle School, you and all of the students, along with everyone else in all of Miracle City, laughed at me like I was a buffoon! It was humiliating, and it filled me with rage and vengeance towards everyone, especially you, Manny!" Sergio angrily explained while pointing at Manny. "I didn't mean to laugh at you, Sergio, honest! I was only goaded into laughing with everyone else after Frida poked me with her elbow!" Manny said nervously. This made Frida chuckle nervously. "Well now it's your turn to be humiliated!" Sergio said, putting the Memory back in his Riser.

Desperado, GaiaRise!

That's when Sergio morphed into a large pale-skinned muscular adult male monstrous humanoid with a large black cowboy hat that had metal spikes running around the brim, glowing red eyes, pointed goblin-like ears, a black mustache resembling his Senor Siniestro persona, a red bandana covering his mouth, a black ripped vest over a gray sleeveless shirt while also having two black bullet belts crossed over his chest, a long tattered black-and-red poncho cape wrapped around his neck, muscular arms with claw-tipped fingers, a pair of skull-and-crossbone tattoos on his shoulders, a pair of black wrist gauntlets equipped with blasters shaped like revolver guns, a pair of dark blue cowboy jeans, two holsters on his hips containing high-tech six-shooters, and a pair of black metallic cowboy boots with sharp spikes and buzzsaw blade-like spurs. The Cactus Kid then inserted his memory.

Cactus, GaiaRise!

At that moment, the Cactus Kid morphed into a tall humanoid cactus with a branched out cactus structure on his head shaped like a bigger version of his signature cactus hat, eight long arms tipped with hands resembling his signature cactus gloves, cactus flowers on his chest and shoulders, and having many rows of cactus spines all over his body. Titanium Titan then did as the others did.

Titanium, GaiaRise!

At once, Titanium Titan morphed into a tall muscular male monstrous humanoid being that's fully metallic with multiple metal spikes protruding from his back, shoulders, arms, and legs, long sharp claws on his fingers and feet, four large demonic horns on his head, razor-sharp teeth in his mouth, glowing green eyes, and a symbol on his chest that consisted of the Chemical Symbol for Titanium 'Ti' and the Atomic Number for Titanium '22'. "By any chance is Titanium Magnetic?" Ricky whispered. "Weakly, but I doubt enough for your powers to do much." Lisa said over the comm link. "Of course." Ricky said in disappointment. Django then loaded his Memory into his Riser.

Skeleton, GaiaRise!

Once he did that, Django morphed into a tall masculine humanoid skeleton monster highly resembling the Bone Eater from the 2008 SyFy monster movie of the same name, albeit with large bony wings on his back that had feathers made out of bones, six horns on his head, and bony claws on his wrists that resembled those of the Marvel Superhero Wolverine. Don Baffi then loaded his Memory into his Riser.

Mustache, GaiaRise!

At that moment, Don Baffi morphed into a black-and-white-colored armored humanoid with a yellow visor covering his eyes, an incredibly large white moustache one his upper lip, another big black moustache decorated on his chestplate, six more mustaches on this shoulder armor, wrist armor, and leg armor, and an even bigger mustache on his back that acts like wings. Plus, it allowed him to get up off of his wheelchair and be able to walk again. "Okay, that has got to be the weirdest Dopant concept I've ever seen, which is saying something." Shotaro said. "You'd better watch it, young man!" Don Baffi said upon hearing that. "Come to think of it, what's up with your group's name? The Mustache Mafia? That's so stupid!" Aurachnid said. "Stupid?! Does this look stupid to you?!" Big Man asked angrily as he, Knuckles, and Tony had their black moustaches stretch out and produce clawed hands at each ends. "Yeah, we probably should have mentioned that the Moustache Mafia actually have the shared ability to manipulate their moustaches like extra limbs!" Frida said sheepishly. "That is so freaky." Lincoln said as Lady Lava inserted her Memory into her Riser.

Lava, GaiaRise!

That allowed Lady Lava to morph into a very curvaceous female humanoid being with skin made of glowing molten volcanic rock and having long flowing hair made out of boiling hot lava. General Chapuza and Che inserted their memories.

Zombie, GaiaRise!

That caused them both to morph into large, muscular, male humanoid zombified beings with pale green decaying skin, visible pulsating veins on parts of their bodies, exposed ribs at the abdomens, bony spikes protruding from the back, exposed snarling teeth in their mouths, bony blades protruding from their arms and wrists in addition to the long bony claws on their fingers, exposed hearts, exposed skull nostrils where their noses used to be, exposed brains on the backs of their craniums, long prehensile tongues, and bony blades on their ankles. Needless to say, Laird screamed in terror at the site of that before he fainted. "What's his problem?" Frida asked. "Apparently, Laird is terrified of Zombies!" Casey said. "Sucks to be you!" Che said as the squids inserted their Gaia Memories.

Kraken, GaiaRise!

That caused all three of them to morph into three large monstrous black cephalopods with huge numerous tentacles that sharp spikes in their suction cups, glowing green eyes, sharp jagged beaks, and a big long armored body with great wide fins and ten big horns. "Animals can become Dopants, too?" Clyde asked in confusion. "Yeah, in fact the Smilodon Dopant was a cat owned by the Sonozakis." Shotaro said. "A cat?" Lincoln asked in confusion. "Specifically, a British Shorthair breed! His name is Mick and, ever since the deaths of the Sonozakis, he's been living with us at the Narumi Detective Office!" Philip said. "Fascinating." Lisa said over the comm link as Chakal chuckled before inserting his own Memory into his riser.

Discipline, GaiaRise!

That caused Vice Principal Chakal to transform into a menacing armored humanoid being with a helmet resembling that of Judge Dredd, a black leather jacket with spiked shoulders that also had a pair of seven-corded scourge whips attached to each side of them, a large sword held on his back with a big blade shaped like a school ruler and a hilt shaped like a balance scale, a pair of metal handcuffs linked to a long metal chain that's wrapped around his waist over his GaiaRiser, a pair of metallic boots with long sharp metal spikes underneath them, a pair of arm gauntlets shaped like a pair of Fasces (a bundle of rods with a projecting axe blade), and a school wall clock on the center of his chest. "Good luck getting past all of us, El Tigre!" Sartana of the dead said as Manny transformed, Lincoln brought out Nebhedety, and the other Kamen Riders all prepared their drivers with Edge going for the Tajadol Combo.

"The Champion sworn to protect humanity at all costs! Kamen Rider LL!" Lincoln called. "The Princess destined to eradicate the darkness of evil with the light of good! Kamen Rider Jewel!" Sakura called. "The Spider Warrior from Africa, chosen by Kwaku Anansi himself! Kamen Rider Anansi!" Clyde announced. "Like the phoenix from the ashes, I am reborn!

"The two in one rider, Kamen Rider W! Count up your sins!" Shotaro and Phillip both declared. "The Expert Detective, Kamen Rider Accel! Let's shake it off!" Ryu announced. "Uchuu..." Gentaro and Nadeshiko said, confusing those that don't already know them. "Kitaaaaaaaaa!" They both shouted eagerly. "Kamen Rider Fourze! Let's do this man to man!" Gentarou declared. "Kamen Rider Meteor! I will decide your fate!" Ryusei announced. "Kamen Rider Nadeshiko! Let's do this in a stylish way!" Nadeshiko announced. "I've got it together. My brain cells are in Top Gear!

"Kamen Rider Necrom, listen to the call of your heart!" Alain said. "Kamen Rider Kanon Specter, I'll protect everyone with everything I've got!" Kanon announced. "The law of victory is set, Kamen Rider Build!" Sento called. "I don't feel like losing, Kamen Rider Cross-Z!" Ryuga called. "I'll crush you with the fire burning in my heart, Kamen Rider Grease!" Kazumi called. "I'll fight for the greater good, Kamen Rider Rogue!" Gentoku announced. "Lucha Power!" The Lucharangers, minus Frida who just looked confused said as they took on their heroic alter egos. "Lucha Power? Really?" Frida asked in confusion. "I've just been ringing the bell. Oh well. Lucha Power!" Frida called, taking on her own alter ego. "VulEagle!/Shark!/Panther!" The Sun Vulcan called, taking on their own alter egos. "Dynaman!" The Dynaman said, changing. "Change Zenkai!" The core Zenkaigers called. "Change Tsuikai!" Zox called. "Ankoku Change!" Stacy called. They then turned the levers, or steering wheel in case of Zocks, on their transformation devices, except for Isao, who used his thumb as a crank while he had his index finger pointed outwards.

Then they all did a little dance.

Then they pulled the triggers, transforming into their respective Sentai hero forms.

Alebrije Sentai!" Ronnie Anne chanted. "Lucharanger!" They all called. "Okay, I've got to admit that was pretty cool, and is it just me or does this suit look better with these than it did without?" Frida asked, gesturing to her chest. "I think it does, yeah!" Sid noted. "Yeah, work it girl!" Carlota said.

"The eight assembled!" Kaito chanted. "Kikai Sentai... Zenkaiger!" They all called. Aden then pulled out the Ouroblade. "Alchemeister!" He called, taking on his Metal Hero alter ego. "Alchemic Knight, Alchemeister!" Aden announced. "Where did they find these weirdoes?" Puma Loco asked in confusion. "The boy in the pink armor looks suspiciously like that 'Destroyer of Worlds' this nutjob in a trench coat told me about when he came by the police station yesterday on a poster." Emiliano said. "Okay, first of all, the color of my armor isn't pink, it's Magenta! There's a difference!" Shintomaru corrected upon hearing that. "Seriously, they're pink..." Shintomaru said, pointing to Nikki, Rei, and Magine. "But we're Magenta!" He said, pointing to Carlota and himself. "Well technically, Magenta is considered a Dark Pink." Lisa said over the comm link. "You're not helping, Lisa-chan!" Shintomaru said in annoyance. "My Apologies." Lisa said. "Anyway, and second of all, you said something about a nutjob in a trenchcoat?" Shintomaru asked Emiliano.

"Si! Sometime yesterday, he just showed up, with a wanted poster of somebody that looks suspiciously enough like you, who he called the 'Destroyer of World's!" Emiliano asked, much to Shintomaru's irritation. "Narutaki!" He said angrily. "What's his deal?" Sartana of the Dead asked. "It's a past life thing." Sakura said. "When will that guy get with the program that I'm no longer the Destroyer of Worlds?! Seriously, I'm the Protector of Worlds now!" Shintomaru angrily ranted. "Yikes, someone has issues." The Turkey Dopant said. "You three are to talk!" Aya said upon the Flock of Fury's auras. "Especially you, Zoe Aves." She said, pointing to the Raven Dopant, much to the latter's shock and confusion. "What the?!" She asked. "*Gasp!* Zoe Aves is Black Cuervo the entire time! I knew it!" Frida said in frustration. "But, how can that be? We tried to prove that Zoe is Black Cuervo, only for Black Cuervo herself to show beside Zoe, meaning that they're separate people!" Manny said in confusion. "Apparently, Zoe's grandmother Lady Gobbler, real name Pachita Aves, disguised herself as Black Cuervo in order to fool everyone, including you two, into thinking that Black Cuervo and Zoe Aves are separate people, just to prevent you two from exposing the entire Aves Family as the Flock of Fury!" Aya said while reading the Flock of Fury's auras.

The Raven Dopant growled, reverting back to her human form and removing her helmet. That caused her left hair bang too fall onto her face and cover her left eye, revealing the girl beneath the Black Cuervo helmet is none other than Zoe Aves. "Oh, I get it, Aves is Spanish for birds, and the flock of fury are all bird themed Villains, clever." Manny said. "You just realized that now?! You must be incredibly stupid, like the time when you used me as informat against my own family, or back in kindergarten, when you went and had chosen Frida as your best friend over me after you met her during detention!" Zoe angrily ranted. "Awkward!" Aurachnid said. "Speaking of awkward, despite being a skeleton, Santana has an aura, and in hers, I'm seeing a very surprising secret that concerns your entire family!" Aya told Manny. "Really? What?" Manny asked in confusion. "Why have her tell everyone when I can show you? I've already gotten a letter from him a while ago that he's coming here for a reunion with me and Django! In fact, I believe he should be here in Three... Two... One!" Sartana of the Dead said, right before a new figure suddenly walked in through the door where the other villains are in a menacing manner. That figure was a tall masculine humanoid skeleton with a large black mustache, a metallic piece with a red mechanical eye on the right side of his face, a glowing red eye in his normal skeleton left eye socket, brown eyebrows, a large metal lower jaw with sharp jagged teeth and a black goatee, four arms (one right arm and three left arms connected to a big metal shoulder decorated with a white skull and crossbones marking), and a robotic right leg with a slightly big black metallic cowboy boot that's decorated with a skull and crossbones marking, who was wearing a black cowboy hat with a red midsection decorated with a skull and crossbones marking, a tattered black jacket over a red shirt and a pair of crossed over brown bullet belts, black fingerless gloves in all four of his hands that are decorated with skull and crossbones markings, a pair of dark red trousers (the right leg being cut up halfway to reveal his robotic right leg) held by a black belt, and a normal-sized black cowboy boot on his left foot, and carrying in one of his three left hands a large sword with a black handle tipped with a golden skull at the end, some small golden skulls decorated around the hilt, and a huge machete knife-like blade with jagged edges and two long holes in the middle of said blade. "Everyone, meet my son, and Django's father, El Machete!" Sartana announced, gesturing to the four-armed cyborg skeleton. "Hello, Mother! Glad to see you after all these years!" The four-armed cyborg skeleton, now identified as El Machete, said in a suave Western accent.

"Likewise." El Machete said. "What does this guy have to do with anything?" Puma Loco asked. "Well, you know how you left Sartana at the altar?" Aya asked. "Yeah?" Puma Loco said. "Likewise." Sartana said. "What does this guy have to do with anything?" Puma Loco asked. "Well, you know how you left Sartana at the altar?" Aya asked. "Yeah?" Puma Loco said. "Well, it seems you did so before she could tell you about one not so small little detail." Aya said sheepishly. "What do you mean?" Puma Loco asked as El Machete approached him. "Here's a hint! Apparently, before you left my mother at the alter, you practically made love with her, if you know what I mean!" El Machete said. That's when Puma Loco did a little bit of thinking before gasping in realization and horror. "Oh No! It can not be! You're my son?!" Puma Loco asked in shock and horror. "Well done! Way to solve the mystery, Puma Holmes, or should I say, Sherlock Father?" El Machete said, shocking everyone that didn't know that to their core, especially Rodolfo and Django. "AWKWARD!" Aurachnid said, louder than before.

"Father! How could you?! Leaving Sartana of all people on the alter was bad enough, but you left her with an illegitimate child too?!" Rodolfo asked Puma Loco incredulously. "Hey, I'm just as surprised about this as you are!" Puma Loco said. "While I'm trying to figure out how any of this is possible." Lisa said over the comm link. "Grandmother, is this true?!" Django asked in shock. "Yes, sorry, I didn't tell about that, Django!" Sartana said. "But, that means, El Tigre is my biological cousin!" Django asked in shock. This made both of them cringe at this realization. "Huh! And I thought I was the only one who made an illegitimate child with Sartana!" General Chapuza noted, weirding everyone out, including Che. "Grandfather, you too?!" Che asked in shock. "Si! Sartana and I ended up having an illegitimate daughter named Estrella together, back when we were dating, of course! Estrella is your Aunt and she was considered cute-looking for a Zombie! Nowadays, she's just being a vagabond!" General Chapuza explained to Che. "Yikes, this is quickly becoming a Telenovela!" Ronnie Anne said.

"You know something is bothering me! How can an undead skeleton like Sartana can even have children with a living person, let alone a zombie, since they don't have any organs, especially reproductive ones?" Lunastura asked in confusion. "Hey, us Zombies still have functioning organs, including the reproductive ones, so it's not that hard to for us to make children! As for undead skeletons, well, normally they can't have children the same way that living humans or zombies can! But, Sartana of the Dead, well, she's not an ordinary undead skeleton, I can tell you that!" General Chapuza said. "Huh?" Everyone asked in confusion. "Yes, that's right! I'm most certainly far from an average undead skeleton, because I was never even born human! I'm actually a Goddess of Death, and a daughter of La Muerte and Xibalba at that!" Sartana smugly stated, much to everyone's shock and confusion. "Who are La Muerte and Xibalba?" Lincoln asked in confusion. "I know! They're two of the rulers of the Afterlife Realms! La Muerte is the Goddess who rules over the Land of the Remembered, which the Land of the Dead is a part of, while her husband Xibalba is the ruler of the Land of the Forgotten, where the souls of those who are dead and have nobody in the Land of the Living left alive to remember them end up!" Puma Loco said.

"That last part sounds horrible!" Sakura said in fright. "Yeah, I'm just glad I didn't wind up there!" Otoha noted. "So... You're actually a Goddess of Death?" Frida asked in confusion. "Of course I am, silly girl! Well, except that had I most of my godhood, and my wings, taken away from me by my parents after I killed one of my sisters in a fit of rage sometime after Puma Loco, or should I say, Jorge Rivera, left me on the alter! Heck, after my banishment to the Land of the Living in 1962, the only part of my powers I had left were the ability to temporarily enter the Land of the Cursed, the realm of my uncle El Chamuco, in order to regenerate my body after every that my Mystic Guitar is destroyed! Fortunately, thanks to some help from Futaba, Moroha, Django, they were able to retrieve my disembodied wings after finding Otoha, which gave me back all of my godly powers!" Sartana explained while displaying her wings. "Come to think of it, why did you leaver her at the altar?" Lincoln asked Jorge.

"Come to think of it, why did you leaver her at the alter?" Lincoln asked Jorge. "I met her." Puma Loco said, pointing at the Turkey Dopant. "Yeah, but then you left me at the alter for Dora, who's his mother!" She said, pointing to Rodolfo. "True but hey, look at the bright side, if that didn't happen, your daughter, granddaughter, my son, or grandson wouldn't be here!" Jorge pointed out. "Okay, fair point, but still!" Lady Gobbler said. "Yeah! Such kinds of cheating and philandering are considered to be unforgivable among my people!" Aya said. "Hey, I'm a villain, it's what we do!" Jorge said. "Really? From where I'm standing, you're an unfaithful coward!" Aya said, making Jorge easily ticked off. "COWARD?!" Jorge asked angrily. "Uh, Aya, if there's anything you do not want to call a Rivera man, it's coward!" Manny said. "Yeah! It's considered an insult towards their Macho-ness, so much so that they'd usually beat up anyone that even dares to call them that! And considering how strong the Rivera men are, it doesn't end well for the offenders!" Frida said. "As my brother and his group found out with the original El Tigre." Buendojo said. That made Aya flinch in fright. "Sorry, Puma Loco!" Aya apologized.

"Since you've apologized, and I'm still shackled at the moment, I'll let it slide, just this once! But, call me a coward again, and your butt is toast!" Jorge warned, making Aya gulp nervously. "Right, sorry!" Aya replied. "Enough talk! It's payback time!" El Mal Verde said, pounding his mace hand into his fist. "Bring it!" Manny said as Chakal summoned a large stamp that crashed into the ground, barely missing Manny, leaving a crater shaped like the stamp which had the word 'EXPELLED' written on it. "*Gulp!* Looks like Chakal is dead serious here!" Manny noted nervously. "I think they all are!" Frida said as Zoe resumed her Dopant form and all the Dopants looked at Manny and Frida maliciously. "Stop right there, evil doers!" Two voices called out. "Who said that?" Atotolino asked in confusion. "Up here!" The voices said as everyone looked up to see the Golden Eagle Twins. "Oh great, them!" Frida said in annoyance. "And the boots are locked up!" Manny complained.

"Who are you two meddlers?" Baihu asked. "I am Carlito!" The male twin said. "And I am Carla!" The female twin called. "And we are-" They started saying. "A COUPLE OF NO GOOD LIARS!" Frida said angrily removing her helmet. "YOU BOTH KNOW VERY WELL THAT BLIMP AND LASER WERE CREATED BY YOU TWO! AND YET, MANNY ENDED UP IN PRISON FOR YOUR CRIME!" She said angrily. Carlito then swooped down and angrily glared at Frida. "It's! A! Zeppelin!" Carlito angrily yelled. "No! One! Cares!" Frida fired back. "Well, technically, he's not wrong! There is a difference between a zeppelin and a blimp! See, while both zeppelins and blimps are self-propelled airships with lighter-than-air gas and are steered by pilots, zeppelins are rigid airships that use an internal framework to maintain their shape, whereas blimps are nonrigid airships that rely on internal air pressure to maintain their shape, just like a balloon!" Lisa informed through the comm link. "Not the time, Lisa!" Lincoln said. "You and your sister are supposed to be the children of one of the greatest superheroes to ever live, yet here you two are disproving the saying 'the apple doesn't fall far from the tree'!" Frida said angrily.

"Seriously, Manny is more of a hero than the two of you ever will be! And he's undecided for crying out loud!" Frida said. "Big whoop! Listen here, girlie, we have this city wrapped around our little fingers! All it takes is some words, and everyone will cheer for us, and your little boyfriend will wind up back in prison for conspiring with these guys!" Carla said with a chuckle. "Okay, first of all, Manny isn't my boyfriend, at least not officially!" Frida said. "Second of all, next time you say something like that, pay better attention to who's in the room, you idiota!" She said, pointing to Jorge, Rodolfo, and Emiliano still chained to the wall. That made Carla flinch in fright. "Yeah, and by the way, you are so lucky the Bronze Boots of Truth, which forces anyone who makes contact with their soles to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth, are currently locked up." Frida added. "Not for long they're not!" El Machete said, destroying the cage containing the boots and sombrero before putting the sombrero on his head and the boots on his feet.

Or at least managed to fit the left boot on his left foot while having trouble getting the right boot on, due to his mechanical right foot being a bit bigger. "That's not good is it?" Lincoln asked. "Not at all, the Golden Sombrero of Chaos reacts to the wearer's mind, whatever they think, it can do, while the Bronze Boots of Truth gives their wearer enhanced speed and strength!" Manny said. "Looks like he's having some trouble getting the right boot on his bigger mechanical right foot!" Aurachnid said. "Oh, right, need to remove my own right boot first!" El Machete said as he then had his big metallic right boot open up like a book to reveal a skeletal mechanical foot before he successfully slipped said foot into the right Bronze Boots of Truth. "Now then." He said as a cannon popped out of the Golden Sombrero of Chaos. "Who's first?" He asked. "Listen here evil doers, you'd better surrender right now or-wow there's a lot more of you than I thought there'd be." Carla said.

"Yeah, and most of you we don't even recognize!" Carlito noted, referring to the Dark Riders, Animarius, and Zodiarts. "But you two I recognize!" El Mal Verde said, picking them up. "Yes, you have the same scent as this bird brain I ate ten years ago!" He said. "What was his name? Oh, yes! Capitan Águila I believe it is!" El Mal Verde said, making the Golden Eagle Twins gasp in shock. "Capitan Águila?! That's our father!" Carla said in shock. "AND IF WHAT I JUST HEARD YOU TWO SAY IS CORRECT, HE WOULD BE VERY DISAPPOINTED IN YOU TWO!" Rodolfo said. That made the Golden Eagle Twins flinch in fright. "But don't worry, you're about to meet him again real soon!" El Mal Verde said, opening his mouth as he prepared to drop them in, only to be met in the face by a metal fist. That caused El Mal Verde to accidentally send the Golden Eagle Twins falling towards the floor. Only for them to be saved by another hand shown to belong to the Daileon. "Nice timing, Juspion-sempai!" Sakura called to the Metal Hero inside the cockpit. "Arigato, Sakura-chan!" Juspion replied.

"Just leave the big guy to me!" He said, focusing his attention on El Mal Verde before the Alebrije Monster wrapped a tentacle around Daileon. "Carl, Adelaide, Yui, Subaru, go up in LuchaKaiser and help Juspion!" Ronnie Anne said. "Right! Alebrije Henkei!" Carl, Adelaide, Yui, and Subaru said before transforming into their Alebrije Mech forms. "Alebrije Gattai!" Carl and Adelaide called, forming LuchaKaiser. "Alebrije Busou!" Yui and Subaru called, forming their exclusive combination. "LuchaKaiser! Aurora Breaker and Illusion Grappler!" The four announced. "Oh my." Seventh Samurai said. (The Character's Voiced By George Takei, How Could I Not) "You said it, Father!" Toshiro a.k.a. Cyber Sumo said. "Yeah, we probably should have mentioned that we Lucharangers have that ability!" Ronnie Anne said sheepishly. "Yeah, in fact, ever since the Battle Fever J's Battle Fever Robo, giant robots have been a staple part of every Super Sentai's arsenal." AkaRed said.

"Let me guess, it's because they fight against giant monsters very frequently, right?" Flama Dama asked. "Not just giant monsters, the Jashinka Empire's final assault was mounted from their warship which we sliced in half with DynaRobo's KagakuKen." Hokuto said. "KagakuKen?" Gordo Gordo asked in confusion. "Science Sword!" Rei translated. "Oh." Gordo Gordo said. "GET THEM!" Sartana and King Draco ordered. "Alright, alright! No need to get pushy about it, mangs!" El Oso said while Ossito, who was a regular bear, simply just growled. Before waving his hand and accidently tearing a hole in the side of Lola's dress. That apparently also exposed a part of her underwear, making Lola both flustered and furious. "*SHRIEK!* You tore my a part of my dress and partially exposed my underwear! How Dare You?!" Lola asked angrily. "Oh yeah, whatcha gonna do about it, mang?" El Oso asked smugly, not realizing that Lola is literally turning red with rage. "Oh no, EVERYONE DUCK AND COVER!" Lincoln called in fright. "Why? Is there a bomb going off or something?" Manny asked in confusion.

"Just like how you should never call a Rivera man a coward, you should NEVER make Lola angry!" Lincoln said as Lola delivered an uppercut to a laughing El Oso, sending him flying above before crashing onto the other members of the Mustache Mafia as well as a few Skeletons and Zombies! "Ow! How is that little girl so freakishly strong, mang?" El Oso asked in pain and confusion. "No one knows!" Lincoln said as Lola grabbed El Oso's leg. "Listen here and listen good! NO! ONE! TEARS! MY! DRESS! AND! GETS! A! WAY! WITH! IT! YOU! HAI! RY! BU! FFOON!" Lola said angrily repeatedly slamming El Oso into the ground with every syllable. "Ow! Technically, it was my brother Ossito that did it, not me!" El Oso pointed out. Ossito then let out a whimpering "Uh Oh!" before Lola turns towards her attention towards him and started beating him up in the same way she did to El Oso. "This right here is exactly why some of us defected." Toxobra said in fright.

That made Manny and Frida gulp in fright. Lola then slammed the two brothers so hard, their GaiaRisers and Bear Memories shattered! That caused El Oso to return to human form and Ossito to return to the form of a small bear. "Aw come on!" El Oso complained.

Meanwhile...

Manny was fighting directly against Baihu, who was much stronger than anticipated. "You're going to regret facing one of Foundation X's Zodiarts Generals, boy!" Baihu said. He then has his claws glowing in cosmic energy before slashing at Manny. Fortunately, Manny was quick enough to dodge the attack, just barely.

OK, Saturn!

Suddenly, several mini Saturns hit Baihu courtesy of Ryusei. However, Baihu himself easily shook off the attack like it was nothing. "You really think that's going to work? I am one of the four generals appointed by Director Chushin himself! Our power level is beyond even Sagittarius Nova!" Baihu declared. "Nani?!" Ryusei asked in shock. "Oh that's bad." Gentarou said, knowing full well how powerful said Zodiarts was. "Oh, you think that's bad, wait until you meet Director Chushin himself! His own Zodiarts form is more powerful than us Four Generals combined!" Baihu said. "Okay, I'm confused, can somebody please explain what a Zodiarts even is?" Rodolfo asked. "A Zodiarts is basically a human who turns into a Constellation-themed monster through the use of a device called a Zodiarts Switch!" Ryusei explained. "Which begs the question of what this guy is supposed to be." Gentarou noted.

"Uh, hello? Doesn't my name and appearance ring any bells around here? I'm based on the Chinese Constellation Baihu, the White Tiger of the West, better known by its Japanese name Byakko!" Baihu said, making Gentaro and Ryusei gasp in shock. "Hey, wait a minute, Sougo Tokiwa a.k.a. Kamen Rider Zi-O mentioned a White Tiger Zodiarts that was amongst the group of the Zodiarts that ganged up on him and stolen the NeoDecadriver from him! That must be you!" Shintomaru realized. "Ah yes, I remember that mission." Baihu said. "It was so easy, especially when Vespa stung that idiot with her paralyzing venom and snatched that thing while he was frozen stiff like a statue! That was a laugh!" He added before laughing. That made Shintomaru growl angrily. "If this guy is based off Baihu a.k.a. Byakko, then could it be the other three generals are based off of Qinglong a.k.a Seiryu, Zhuque a.k.a Suzaku, and Xuanwu a.k.a Genbu?" Lisa asked. "And what about this director man?" She asked.

Meanwhile...

Frida was fighting against Black Cuervo, with the latter using her claws and razor-sharp feathers while the former was using her star powers to counter the Raven Dopant. "You will pay for stealing Manuel from me all those years ago!" Black Cuervo, real name, Zoe Aves, angrily declared before shooting out razor-sharp feathers from her wings, prompting Frida to summon a construct of Scutum the Shield Constellation in order to block them. "Yeesh, this girl is crazy!" Callocelotarling whispered. "Tell me about it! She's always have it in for me since we were in kindergarten! Like the time she tripped me on purpose while I was carrying a tray of finger paint, which caused a can of the green paint to spill all over and make me look like a slime monster, the time she slapped a 'Kick Me' sign on my back before I entered the Karate room, which made me get beaten up by all of the karate students, and even stuffed a savage bear in my locker, which attacked me the moment I've tapped on the locker door!" Frida explained bitterly. "And you know why?" Zoe asked. "Actually, come to think of it, I haven't actually bothered to ask why you did all those nasty things to me, so I don't know!" Frida said.

"Actually, come to think of it, I haven't actually bothered to ask why you did all those nasty things to me, so I don't know!" Frida said. "Well, technically Manny's Grandpapi left your Grandmami on the alter willingly, which I even find to be rather disgusting!" Frida said while glaring at Jorge, who simply chuckled nervously. "As for Manny's Dad, well, come to think of it, Mr. Rivera, why did you leave Voltura for Manny's Mom?" Frida asked Rodolfo. "Well, actually, the reason why I broke up with Carmelita Aves, that's Voltura's real name, is because she cheated on me while we were in highschool!" Rodolfo answered, much to the anger of Voltura, real name Carmelita Aves. "I Only Did That To Make You Jealous, Since You Cheated On Me With Another Woman!" Carmelita angrily explained, making Rodolfo sigh in exasperation. "*SIGH!* How many times must I explain it to you, Carmelita? The woman that I was talking to was my cousin, not my lover!" Rodolfo pointed out. "Yeesh, it really is becoming a Telenovela!" Ronnie Anne said. "Eh, Adios, Ana, Adios Is better." Carlota said. "True." Ronnie Anne shrugged.

"Okay, I get it, now! You have a crush on Manny, and you're extremely jealous towards me always being with him, right?" Frida asked. "ABOUT TIME YOU'VE FIGURED IT OUT, YOU IDIOTA!" Zoe angrily shouted. "But then I find out you kissed him?!" She asked. "Hey, keep it down with that, Manny thinks that was a heat of the moment thing!" Frida said, blushing under her helmet. "What, are you afraid of Manuel finding out about your own feelings towards him?" Zoe asked with a sly grin. "Don't...you...dare!" Frida said. "And what are you going to do about that, Frida Suarez?" Zoe asked smugly. Before she was knocked away by what is revealed to be the tail of an invisible Mambana. "Nice!" Frida told the Black Mamba Animarius. "As someone with secret feelings for someone myself, I can't imagine them being revealed by an enemy." Mambana said. "Really? Who?" Frida asked quietly. "Him." Mambana said, pointing to Toxobra who was fighting off some Dustards. "Oh, I get it, since you're both snakes!" Frida said quietly. "Yeah." Mambana said.

"Though, honestly, I'm quite nervous to approach him, since, one, I was originally an ordinary Black Mamba that got turned into an Animarius soldier after being absorbed by a Blank Core, and two, my species is a kind of snake that eats other snake species when given the opportunity, even though our primary prey animals are birds and small mammals!" Mambana explained nervously. "I hear you, I've been friends with Manny since Kindergarten, and the main reason I've been playing this one kiss I gave him as a heat of the moment thing is because I'm afraid of how it will affect everything, plus my Dad over there isn't exactly his biggest fan." Frida said. "Really? Why?" Mambana asked. "Well, it's mainly because of how I often get into danger whenever I stand close by while Manny fights against bad guys, but it's also because he's overprotective and sees Manny as a bad influence towards me!" Frida answered. "Why would your father see Manny as a bad influence?" Mambana asked.

"Well, there's the fact that Manny and I pull a lot of dangerous stunts and pranks across Miracle City, even though most of ideas behind them were really mine! Plus, my Dad often sees Manny as a potential threat towards me, even though he's my friend and is capable of protecting me from bad guys!" Frida said. "But I guess when you're the chief of police in a city described as a spicy cesspool of crime and villainy like Miracle City, that kind of thing comes naturally." She shrugged. Mambana simply shrugged at that too.

Meanwhile...

Casey, Takayuki, Hokuto, and Juran were up against the three Dr. Chipotles, who were very strong and versatile in their Cyborg Dopant forms. "Man these Dr. Cumin guys are annoying." Casey said. "IT'S CHIPOTLE! HOW IS THAT SO HARD TO REMEMBER?!" Dr. Chipotle Jr. asked in annoyance. He then started shooting at the four red Sentai heroes with his left arm laser blaster and shoulder cannons. "MaxLucha Power!" Casey called, entering his secondary mode and enveloping himself, Takayuki, Hokuto, and Juran with his Pteranodon wings, protecting them from the blasts. "That guy's got some serious anger issues!" Juran said. "You can say that again!" Hokuto said. "Mind if I join in?" AkaRed asked as he rushed to the side of the four red Sentai heroes. "Please, what could one more do to us?!" Dr. Chipotle Sr. Sr. said laughing. "You shouldn't underestimate the Spirit of the Red Super Sentai Warriors!" AkaRed said. "I hope you have a plan, AkaRed!" Trisaurus said.

"Especially against those three Cyborgs!" Casey added. "Cyborgs, huh? Soul Korin, Spade Ace!" AkaRed said as he then, in a flash, took on the form of the second in command of JAKQ Dengekitai, Spade Ace. "What good is a costume change supposed to do?" Dr. Chipotle Sr. asked. "Spade Ace of the JAKQ Dengekitai is a Cyborg who can manipulate Atomic Energy." AkaRed explained. "Atomic Energy?!" The three Dr. Chipotles asked in fright. "Precisely." AkaRed said. He then summoned Spade Ace's signature weapon, the Spade Arts Power Bow. He then aimed an atomic arrow at the three Cyborg Dopants. "Spade Arts!" AkaRed called, firing the arrow. "AIYEE!" The three Chipotles shouted in fright before instinctively using the Doctor Octopus-like mechanical tentacles on their backs to catch the arrow. However, upon getting caught, the arrow exploded in the three Cyborg Dopants' faces. Casey laughed at this.

"SWINE!" The three Dr. Chipotles angrily yelled as their mechanical tentacles were severely damaged by the explosion. "Man, with how they're talking at once, you'd think they'd be clones instead of being son, father, and grandfather!" Casey joked. "You kind of have a point there." Aya said, deciding to take a look at their auras. "Dr. Chipotle Jr., also known as Diego in his civilian disguise, is actually an escaped human lab experiment, and his so-called 'father' and 'grandfather' are actually clones of himself that he created and artificially aged up when he was younger to become his father and grandfather figures, and implanted them with artificial memories to make them more believable as such!" Aya explained, much to the shock of the three Dr. Chipotles. "Now that is crazy!" Juran said. Even Manny and Frida were shocked upon hearing that. "And here I thought they couldn't get any weirder!" Frida said. "How you know about my deepest darkest secret, girl?!" Dr. Chipotle Jr. asked Aya in shock. "I can see auras." Aya explained. "Auras?" Dr. Chipotle Jr. asked in confusion.

"It's a sort of spiritual energy field often produce by living things, or sometimes inorganic things with souls!" Aya explained. "Okay, that's honestly creepy." Dr. Chipotle Sr. said. "You think that's creepy? Dr. Chipotle Jr, or should I say, Diego, apparently, you and Sergio are both harboring a stalkerish crush on Frida and competing with each other for her affections!" Aya said, making both Dr. Chipotle Jr. and Sergio flinch nervously while Frida was totally creeped out. "So... Frida, now that you know about our crushes on you, are you still willing to go out with me?" Dr. Chipotle Jr. asked nervously. "Or me?" Sergio asked, equally nervous. "NOT EVEN IF EITHER OF YOU WERE THE LAST MAN ON EARTH!" Frida said angrily. That made both Dr. Chipotle Jr. and Sergio feel very heartbroken. "I CONCUR! I'D MUCH RATHER ALLOW EL TIGRE TO DATE FRIDA THAN EITHER OF YOU!" Emiliano said. That made both Sergio and Dr. Chipotle Jr. gasp in shock while Manny perked up surprise. "Really?" Manny asked. "Dad, you are not helping the situation right now!" Frida said in annoyance.

"Sorry, my little girl!" Emiliano apologized. Frida groaned in annoyance as Juran turned the handle on his Geartlinger, priming it.

Hero! Super Zenkai Time! Go-Go! Bangbang!

Juran then pulled the trigger.

Dai Zenkai!

That fired an energy blast resembling the Zenkaiger symbol at the three Cyborg Dopants. That hit them and sent flying towards a wall, though they were able to survive the attack. "Vulcan Stick!" Takayuki announced as he pulled out the Sun Vulcan's signature sidearm. "Eagle Fire!" He shouted as he unleashed a fire attack at the three Cyborg Dopants. Hokuto then pulled out his DynaRod in Gun mode. "Red Fire!" He called, shooting all three of them, this combined with a strike from Casey's Mosasaurus tail, was enough to destroy their GaiaRisers and Memories. This caused a small explosion before the three Dr. Chipotles returned to normal and fell to the ground unconscious.

Meanwhile...

Sid, Kin'ya, Shima, and Vroon were up against the Squids, currently in the form of the three Kraken Dopants. "I hope you boys are hungry, cause I'm looking to cook up some calamari!" Sid joked, unleashing her sonic scream. However, the Kraken Dopants were smart enough to dodge the attack before spraying the blue Sentai Heroes with ink from their tentacles, much to the latter's disgust. "And I had just gotten polished before we left too!" Vroon said. "Uh, I don't mean to be an alarmist, but I think that ink is a lot more sticky than regular squid! Seriously, my feet are stuck to the floor!" Kin'ya said as his feet were stuck to the floor by the ink. "Same goes with me!" Shima said as he was in the same situation. "Uh oh." Sid said as she realized her own boots as well as the arm with her Lucha Changer, were stuck while Vroon noticed some of the ink caused his feet and Pickaxe to get stuck as well!

The three Kraken Dopants then chuckled a little bit before striking at the four blue Sentai heroes with their spiked tentacles, causing damage to the latter. Only to get blasted by Sento in his HawkGatling form with the Hawk Gatlinger. "Nice Timing!" Sid said. "But we're still stuck, unfortunately!" Vroon said. "Fortunately, I believe I have the right solution!" Sento said, pulling out two new Fullbottles and exchanging the Taka and Gatling ones for them. Specifically they were a purple one with the image of Spider on a spider web and a white one with the image of a Refrigerator.

Spider! Reizoko (Refrigerator)! Best Match!

Sento then turned the crank, summoning purple and white plastic model kits made of pipes.

Are You Ready?!

"Build up!" Sento called, as the plastic model kits in the front and back of him to close into him, forming a new armor, which had a purple Halfbody consisting of a left eye visor shaped like a spider web and a spider-shaped right shoulder armor, and a white Halfbody consisting of a right eye visor shaped like a refrigerator, a refrigerator-shaped left shoulder armor, and a refrigerator-shaped gauntlet fully covering his left hand.

(Drum and bass music) Reikyaku no Trap Master (Cooling Trap Master)! SpiderCooler! Yeah!

Sento then used the refrigerator shaped gauntlet to freeze the squid ink, allowing everyone to shatter it quite easily. "Arigato!" Kin'ya said. "Now to get rid of these punks!" Sento said, turning the crank as Vroon primed his Geartlinger, Kin'ya pulled out his Vulcan Stick, and Shima his DynaRod.

Ready Go! Vortex Finish!
Hero! Super Zenkai Time! Go-Go! Bangbang! Dai Zenkai!

"Shark Washer!" Kin'ya shouted as he unleashed a foam that covered the three Kraken Dopants. "Blue Water Spout!" Shima shouted as he sprayed a stream of water at the Squid trio. Then, Sento shot out a string of spider silk from his spider-shaped right shoulder armor that immediately turned into a giant spider web that trapped the three Kraken Dopants like a net, right before he used the refrigerator-shaped gauntlet on his left hand to freeze the web and the Kraken Dopants solid to prevent them from escaping. Then, Vroon fired an energy blast resembling the Zenkaiger symbol at the three Kraken Dopants, which was strong enough to shatter their GaiaRisers and Kraken Gaia Memories, causing an explosion before the three Squids reverted to normal and fell unconscious.

Meanwhile...

Laird, Asao, Kousaku, and Gaon were up against General Chapuza, Che (both in the form of the two Zombie Dopants), and the regular Zombies, much to Laird's fright. "Zombies, this world just had to have Zombies!" Laird said before breathing in and out. "Calm down Laird, you face demons uglier and scarier than these guys every day, you've even faced a slasher movie icon, these guys are nothing compared to them!" Laird assured himself. "I'd be careful around those Zombie Dopants, cause I've just read from the Gaia Library that getting bitten or scratched by those wielding the Zombie Gaia Memory would be turned into Zombies under their control, and there's no cure for that!" Philip warned as W showed up into the battlefield. "Great." Laird said as Shintomaru got an idea. "I wonder, Shotaro, Phillip, try this with the Laser Memory!" He said, tossing the Eagle Memory to W.

"Nani? 'Eagle'? Where'd you get that Memory from?" Shotaro asked. "Same way as the Ocean and Laser Memories." Shintomaru explained. "This time from defeating the ringleader of the Inverso Mafia's Bird of Prey Trafficking ring!" He added. "Bird of prey trafficking? Is there no end to their evil?" Ryu asked in disgust. "Unfortunately, it doesn't seem that way!" Azalee said. "Come on, Terui, you should know me well enough to know just how far I'm willing to go." Stephano said, tossing the Weather Memory in his hand up and down, with his driver already strapped to his waist. That made Ryu growl angrily. "What's his problem?" Jorge asked. "In his previous life, Stephano, AKA Shinkuro Isaka, AKA The Weather Dopant, killed Ryu-sempai's parents and sister." Sakura explained. That made the Jorge, Rodolfo, Manny, Frida, Anita, Nikkita, and Emiliano gasp in shock. "Yeah, needless to say from what he tells us, that was not a pleasant experience." Shotaro said.

"On a side note, what's this about a previous life?" Rodolfo asked in confusion. "Oh, he's actually the reincarnation of an old enemy of Kamen Riders W and Accel." Sakura explained. "Reincarnation? I thought that's something that only Hindus and Buddhists believe in!" Emiliano said in confusion. "Yeah, but it's not an isolated incident, Shin-kun and Edge-kun for instance are both reincarnations of the original Kamen Riders Decade and OOO, and King Draco over there is the reincarnation of an evil Dragon named Drako with a K." Sakura said. "Ahem! Forgetting someone?" Kairos asked. "Ah, of course, and Kairos-kun over there is the reincarnation of a powerful magical being named Heavenly Saint Chronogel." Sakura said. "Nani?!" Secchan asked in shock. "Something wrong, Secchan?" Flint asked. "Chronogel is the Heavenly Saint of Time, and he's the one Heavenly Saint that was killed by Wolzard-tune!" Secchan explained. "Afterwards his soul wound up in the Afterlife Nexus where it got reborn into this..." Fuka said, trying to find words that wouldn't trigger her boyfriend's height induced anger issues.

"Really cute boyfriend of mine!" She said. "Boyfriend? That pipsqueak?" Jorge asked, laughing out loud. "Oh, you really shouldn't have used that word!" Fuka said worriedly. "Why not?" Rodolfo asked. "Despite appearances, Kairos is 14 years old and very sensitive about his height!" Fuka said. "YOU'RE LUCKY THAT YOU'RE SHACKLED TO A WALL, NOT TO MENTION THE FACT THAT I NORMALLY DON'T BEAT UP THE ELDERLY, OTHERWISE, I'D PUNCH YOU IN THE NOSE FOR THAT INSULT!" Kairos angrily yelled. To vent out his anger, Kairos instead pulled out one of his clock hand swords and tossed it at Che's GaiaRiser, shattering it and his Zombie Memory. That also resulted in Che returning to normal in a flash, much to his own chagrin. "Hey, not fair!" Che complained. "NEITHER IS THE WAY YOU PLAY SOCCER!" Manny and Frida said. "I'm not even going to ask." Aya said.

"Yeah, long story short, our soccer team, the Matadors, keep losing to the other teams due to them cheating and always getting away with it, plus my Dad being the coach makes it hard for us, since he won't let us cheat back! So, after my Dad became bedridden from an allergic reaction to listening to music from a jug and, which Grandpapi invited over..." Manny explained. "You did what, Father?!" Rodolfo asked angrily, to which Jorge whistled nervously. "My Grandpapi ended up becoming our coach instead, and he taught us to cheat against the other soccer teams, which ironically allowed us to win twelve games in a row and enter the Championship against General Chapuza's team Calavera, though they were a lot tougher against us in spite of our cheating! So, Grandpapi convinced me to use my El Tigre powers, with an added disguise to fool the referee, to help win against the Calavera Zombies, and I was about to win after literally disarming Che, since he had his head attached to a muscular Zombie body with six arms, until my team accidentally cheered my El Tigre identity out loud, which made my Dad, who was able to attend the stadium, upset! So, in order to not to bring any further dishonor to myself and my Dad, I deactivated my El Tigre powers and tried to win fairly, only for Che to easily block the ball without any arms, resulting our team losing the game, and everyone in the audience to throw thousands of tiny rocks at me and my Dad while we ran out!" Manny explained.

"I regret none of that! It is like I told you, it is better to lose with honor than win with dishonor." Rodolfo said. "Which we tried to explain most of the way out, resulting in us being pelted with rocks every time we tried to leave the house for a whole week!" Manny said. That made the heroes wince at Manny's pain. "You know, if I didn't know any better, I'd say there might be a lot of corruption from with your world's soccer organization, which would probably explain how the other teams get away with cheating Scott free!" Clyde surmised. "*Gasp!* Corruption with the soccer organization?! No wonder those cheating teams never get punished for their actions!" Rodolfo said in shock. "We live in a city often called a cesspool of crime and villainy, of course there's corruption in some places." Jorge said. "I'm going to have investigate this matter sometime after this whole ordeal is over!" Emiliano noted. "But for now, we still have the big guy to deal with!" Gaon said. "Okay, then, might as well use the Eagle Memory!" Shotaro said as W was still holding the Eagle Gaia Memory while pulling out the Laser Gaia Memory.

Laser! Eagle!

W then placed the Laser and Eagle Memories in the right and left slots of the Doubledriver, respectively.

Laser! Eagle! (Cyan Laser theme from "Sonic Colors", followed by Crimson Eagle theme from "Sonic and the Lost World")

That caused W's right Halfbody to change from green to cyan and the left Halfbody to change from black to Crimson. Not only that, but W gained not only the same Laser Sword in the right hand that Ryu used in his Laser form, but also a crimson eagle-themed crossbow in the left hand. Plus, W gained a pair of crimson mechanical eagle wings on the back. "Holy Chalupa!" Manny exclaimed in surprise. "Cool!" Frida said. "Okay, so, you've changed colors and got a pair of wings and new weapons, big deal!" General Chapuza said smugly. "You shouldn't underestimate us!" Phillip said. "We'll just see about that!" General Chapuza said as he extended his tongue and attempted to attack W with it like a whip. Fortunately, W used the new Eagle Wings to fly and avoid the tongue, right before using the Laser Sword to slice the tongue into many pieces, causing General Chapuza to yell out in pain. Before using the crossbow to fire at him. "Now!" Gaon said, priming his Geartlinger while W prepared their finisher.

Hero! Super Zenkai Time! Go-Go! Bangbang! Dai Zenkai!
Maximum Drive!

That's when Gaon fired an energy blast resembling the Zenkaiger symbol at General Chapuza while W spread out their wings, projected crimson energy energy talons from their feet, and then shouted "EAGLE DIVEBOMB!" before striking at General Chapuza feet first. That combined attacks were enough to shatter General Chapuza's GaiaRiser and Zombie Gaia Memory, causing an explosion that reverted General Chapuza back to normal, much to his chagrin. "Ah, Man! This can't get any worse, right?" General Chapuza asked. That's when Laird used his telekinesis to force General Chapuza, Che, and the Zombies to be grouped together into a big ball while Asao pulled out his Vulcan Stick and Kousaku pulled out his DynaRod. "Somehow, I think it just did, Grandfather!" Che said in worry. "Yellow Lightning Fall!" Kousaku shouted as he shot out lightning at the zombies, making them get electrocuted. "Panther Galaxy!" Asao shouted as he createsld a big crack in the ground that shook and swallowed up the zombies, trapping them in the ground. "Dang it!" Che and Chapuza both said.

Meanwhile...

Nikki, Rei, and Magine, as well as Flama Dama, were up against Lady Lava, Rhomboidea, Morag, and Officina Typographica. "Dang, you people have some strange enemies." Flama Dama said, gesturing to Rhomboidea, Morag, and Officina Typographica. "Tell me about it, I don't even know what that is supposed to be!" Nikki said, pointing to Officina Typographica. "Hello? I'm known as Officina Typographica, based on the Printing Office Constellation of the same name!" Officina Typographica said in annoyance. "There's a Printing Office Constellation?" Nikki asked Lisa. "There definitely was one! It was drawn up by Johann Bode and Joseph Jérôme de Lalande in 1798, and included in the former's star atlas Uranographia in 1801, mainly to honour the printing press of Johannes Gutenberg, the inventor of that machine who helped bring modern literacy to the public! Of course, Officina Typographica was sadly rendered obsolete in the modern era, as the stars that made up that constellation were later absorbed into the northern part of Puppis, the Poop Deck Constellation, and remained permanently there after the setting of the constellation boundaries in 1928!" Lisa explained.

"At least it's not a Gamma-Ray Constellation, I can't even begin to imagine what a Neo Kyutama powered by something like this would do." Nikki said. "Gamma-Ray Constellation?" Frida asked in confusion. "A constellation made up of sources of Gamma Rays rather than stars." Ryusei explained. "They're found in the night sky alongside regular constellations, but they can't be seen without some special equipment that can allow you to see Gamma Rays, such as the Fermi Gamma-ray Space Telescope!" He added. "Zodiarts powered by those constellations are especially troublesome to deal with since they require special equipment to get rid of." AkaRed said, holding up a blank Neo Kyutama. "Really? Why?" Manny asked in confusion. "Primarily, because if somebody other than the assigned user presses the button on their Gamma-Ray Zodiarts Switch in an attempt to have it disappear like with regular Zodiarts Switches, instead of disappearing, it would explode just like a miniature nuclear bomb, complete with deadly radiation, and destroy everything and everyone within a citywide radius!" AkaRed answered, making Manny and Frida gulp in fright.

"Thankfully though, neither Officina Typographica nor Cassiopeia are Gamma Ray Constellations, so we won't have any problems dealing with these two!" Nikki said. "Don't forget us!" Rhomboidea said as Lady Lava shot some lava out of her hands, only for Nikki to erect a crystal barrier, stopping the lava. "Oh, you think that's gonna stop me? Think again!" Lady Lava declared as she kept spewing the lava from her hands with increased force, causing the crystal barrier to start cracking. "Uh oh, MaxLucha Power!" Nikki called, entering MaxLucha Mode and strengthening her barrier. "Anyone have any ideas? Because I don't know how long even my enhanced barrier can last against this!" Nikki said. "I've got one!" Flama Dama said as she shot out flames from her fists straight at Lady Lava. Unfortunately, the flames only made her stronger. "*Chuckle!* Don't you know that fighting fire with fire, or in this case lava with fire, will only get you burned?!" Lady Lava asked while laughing, much to Flama Dama's chagrin. "Oh, I've got an idea!" Magine said, pulling out her wand and stepping out from behind the barrier. "M-M-M-Magine!" She chanted as a large amount of water crashed on the Dopant, Animarius Soldier, and Zodiarts.

"Hey! You've got me all soaking wet!" Morag complained while soaking wet. "And you've extinguished my lava and turned it all into solid rock!" Lady Lava complained as all the lava she unleashed earlier, including the lava that made up her hair, turned into cooled down solid rock. "Exactly!" Magine said as Nikki lowered the barrier, summoned her crystal swords and flew in, striking the four enemies repeatedly. "Ow! Why you little brat!" Rhomboidea said angrily before managing to grab Nikki with her raptorial Mantis arms and then bit onto Nikki's left upper arm, causing the latter to scream in pain. "Hey!" Sameer, in his MaxLucha Mode, holding a sandstone hammer, called. "Hands off!" He said, slamming the hammer into Rhomboidea's head, causing her to crash into Lady Lava. "Are you okay, Nikki?" Sameer asked in concern upon seeing the bleeding bite mark on Nikki's left upper arm. "Nothing Adelaide's Healing Moon or Sakura's Light can't fix." Nikki assured.

"Oh, that's so sweet, cause it's making me sick!" Officina Typographica said before slamming her printing press-themed shield down onto the couple, resulting in them being knocked onto the floor with inked words covering their bodies saying 'LOVE STINKS!' in bold print. "Oh yeah? M-M-M-Magine!" Magine called, causing a pen to write 'YOU STINK!' in bold letters before the ink exploded, causing Officina Typogrphica to crash into Lady Lava and Rhomboidea. "Are you two okay?" Magine asked Sameer and Nikki in concern. "Yeah, thanks Magine." Nikki said. "Just what's that woman's problem?" Sameer said before seeing the words 'LOVE STINKS!' stamped onto his and Nikki's bodies. "Especially by inking us with that specific phrase?!" He asked. "Apparently, from what I'm reading from Officina Typographica's aura, her real name is Insatsuki Sumire, and she used to work at a book printing factory! She's also bisexual, since she fell in love with both men and women alike, but she always has been constantly rejected by either genders for various reasons! Heck, her rejection by a man she had last dated, who told her that he's seeing another woman, made her finally snap and then murder him in a fit of rage with a nearby printing press! After that, she decided to reject love entirely and then go on a serial killing spree, going after romantic couples of all types and then printing the words 'LOVE STINKS!' and other similar romance-hating phrases in bold letters on their bodies with ink and a mobile printing press after killing them, earning her nickname, the Printing Press Romance Killer!" Aya said as she read the aura of Officina Typographica, now truly identified as Insatsuki Sumire a.k.a. the Printing Press Romance Killer.

"Oh, we've been looking for that lunatic!" Ryu said. "In fact, we were close to catching her! Unfortunately, by the time we found her hideout, she was nowhere to be found!" He added. "And you never will catch me!" Officina Typographica declared. She then had her printing press-themed shield detach itself from her left arm and then levitate before having it slam down on the ground repeatedly towards the heroes, though they were quick enough to dodge it. Of course, the printing press-themed shield did leave behind a few printed phrases on the ground after every slamming, including not just 'LOVE STINKS!', but also 'ROMANCE SUCKS!', 'SINGLES RULE, COUPLES DROOL!', 'BETTER TO HATE THAN TO LOVE!', and 'NO MORE LOVE!', as well as some swearing phrases that are best not to be described. "I think 'lunatic' is too nice a word to describe this lady!" Nikki said.

"Yeah, 'maniac' or 'psychopath' would be better words for her!" Sameer said. "Actually, based on some of the crime scenes I saw, a word that would best fit her wouldn't make it past any censors!" Ryu said. That made the heroes shudder in disgust. "Yeah, no kidding." Ryu said. "We'd better stop her and that flying printing press!" Rei said. Before pulling out her DynaRod while Magine primed her Geartlinger.

Hero! Super Zenkai Time! Go-Go! Bangbang! Dai Zenkai!

"Pink Shocking Melody!" Rei called as the two fired their respective attacks at Lady Lava, Rhomboidea, and Officina Typographica. That caused an explosion that reverted Rhomboidea into a Soul Core with the image of a female Hooded Mantis, shattered Lady Lava's GaiaRiser and Lava Memory, which resulted in her returning to normal and falling unconscious, and causing Officina Typographica to return to her true form, which was a curvaceous Japanese woman in her 30's with long brown hair, who was wearing the typical white business shirt of Foundation X with matching skirt and high heels. Nikki picked up and deactivated the Zodiarts switch while Sameer picked up the Soul Core. "Lincoln, catch!" He called, tossing it over to Lincoln. "Huh? I know it's a mantis, but what kind is it?" Lincoln asked in confusion. "Looks like a Choeradodis Rhomboidea, laymen's term the Hooded Mantis." Lisa said.

"Also known as the Tropical Shield Mantis or Leaf Mantis because of the extended leaf-like thorax!" She added. "Cool." Lincoln said, sealing the Soul Core. "Insatsuki Sumire, you are hereby under arrest for murder and conspiracy!" Ryu told the Officina Typographica Zodiarts. "Not on your life, copper!" Insatsuki said, jabbing one of Foundation X's syringes in her chest. Unfortunately for her, instead of being disintegrated, Insatsuki started feeling dizzy. "Huuuuh? What's going oooon? Why am I not dead yeeeet?" Insatsuki asked while dizzy, right before she read the label on the syringe she just used, which was actually marked with the word 'Ochitsukaseru' (meaning 'Tranquilize') instead of 'Jisatsu' (Suicide), much to her chagrin. "Dang iiiit! Got the wrong syriiiiinge!" Insatsuki said in dizziness before laying down and then falling asleep. "Maybe we should consider switching to the Fullbottle method that Faust Agents used to avoid confusion." Akuji told Baihu after seeing this. "I'll have to talk about it with the higher ups." Baihu said.

At the same time, Ryu went over to the sleeping Insatsuki and put handcuffs on her, just in case. "Decade, can I get an Aurora Curtain leading to the police department for this psycho?" Ryu asked Shintomaru. "Certainly, Accel!" Shintomaru replied. Before Insatsuki disappeared through an Aurora Curtain and Ryu wrote a note explaining what was going on and dropped it through as well.

Meanwhile...

Ryuu (DynaBlack), Kaito, Zocks, Cianán, Carlota, CJ, Kairos, Bobby, and Par were up against Don Baffi, Big Man, Knuckles, Tony, Sciurus Volans, Piscis Volans, Splendius, and Mavortius. "You know, I just realized that there aren't any Black or White members in your Sentai team!" Kaito said to Cianán. "There are Alebrijes of those specific colors, but they don't have partners, yet." Cianán explained. "They're known as Owlatursa, the Alebrije of Lava, and Bubolarwhal, the Alebrije of Ice, who are a sister and brother pair of twins!" Cristeroiceros explained. "Are they like GaoBear and GaoPolar?" Secchan asked. "In a way, yes, since Owlatursa is 1/3 Asiatic Black Bear while Bubolarwhal is 1/3 Polar Bear!" Cristeroiceros answered. "Hey, there's actually something I was just wondering, why do Crimson, Marigold, and Titanium have tails as part of their suits but the others don't?" Ryuu (DynaBlack) asked. "Oh, that's because Makros is an alien while Yui is part Kitsune and Subaru is part Tanuki." Carlota explained.

"Eh?! Seriously?!" Kaito asked in shock. "Yeah, Makros came to Earth to try and find a way to free his people from those guys..." Carlota said pointing to the Animarius who weren't on their side. "While Yui and Subaru's direct ancestors fell in love with the human Forms of a Kitsune and Bake Danuki they had helped." Carlota explained. "Really?" Ryuu (DynaBlack) asked. "I know, crazy, right? Also, Cianan over here is part Leprechaun and Sakura over there is part Nature Fairy." Carlota said. "Don't forget about me! While I'm Chronogel reincarnated, I, along with my younger sister, are descended from an Amazon!" Kairos said. "Which explains why despite being younger, she's way taller than him!" Par said, laughing. However, Kairos quickly kicked Par in the crotch upon hearing that. The men present winced at that. "Oooh! What was that for?!" Par asked in a high pained voice. "First of all, never make fun of my height nor even imply something about it! Second, never laugh at anything about my sister!" Kairos said angrily. "Duly noted!" Par winced. "Dude, you really need to see a psychiatrist about those anger issues of yours!" Bobby said.

"Hey, Clyde, you know a good psychiatrist, don't you?" Aurachnid asked. "Only one! Dr. Lopez! She's been a good help to me and my dads!" Clyde said. "You think she could help Kairos with his...little...problem?" Aurachnid asked, struggling to not laugh at his own joke. "Watch it, you stupid spider, or else I'll squash you!" Kairos angrily threatened. "I'll give his parents her number." Clyde said. Of course, upon being momentarily distracted, Don Baffi and the rest of the Moustache Mafia went and attacked the heroes with their extremely prehensile moustaches like whips. Only for something hairy to grab them all at once and toss the Moustache Mafia into the other enemies in that group. "Huh? What was that?" CJ asked in confusion. "Does anyone else see a random mustache on the ground there?" Bobby asked, pointing to a black mustache that Manny immediately recognized. "Raul!" He said happily. "Raul?" Pretty much everyone save for Dr. Chipotle Jr, the Mustache Mafia, and Emiliano asked in confusion. "It's a long story." Frida said.

Aya then read Manny, Frida, and Dr. Chipotle Jr.'s auras. "Unbelievable, Manny! After you and Frida failed to get into the theater to see this movie called the Bloodworm vs the Chainsaw Ninjas because of being too young to watch it and also failed to get into the Salsa Club for the same exact reasons, you tried to get a moustache of your own in order live the life of an adult, though failed to do so three times through different methods, first time with taping your pet Mule's tail to your upper lip, second time with applying plant growth formula onto your face, and then through Frida using an ancient Aztec folk remedy involving, EW!, forcefeeding a striped skunk with boiled cabbage, rotten squid, and stinky goat cheese before making it angry enough to spray you in the face with an explosive force that literally wrecked your penthouse?!" Aya said incredulously to Manny. "Yeah, not one of my best ideas." Manny admitted.

"Or mine!" Frida admitted equally. "Good thing we cleaned up that mess and fixed the house afterwards, though!" She added. "So, after that happened, Dr. Chipotle Jr, who so happened to hear all the way from his evil lair that you'd do anything for a moustache, went and decided to 'help' you get a moustache by tricking you into giving him your El Tigre belt in order to power up this machine that he hooked you up to, resulting in the creation of Raul, the Greatest Mustache in the World as you called him! Plus, Dr. Chipotle Jr. sneakingly gave you a fake belt before you and Frida left, just so that he would give your actual belt to his Guacamole Monster and power it up before going on crime spree while you two, because of Raul's presence making you easily believed to be an adult, were able to get to see that movie you wanted to see, enter a wrestling tournament, and did some multitasking at an office desk, not to mention drive around in a car with a trio of older teenage girls!" Aya said to Manny. "MANUEL PABLO GUTIERREZ O'BRIAN EQUIHUA RIVERA!" Rodolfo angrily scolded Manny. "Man, just what is it with Spanish people and long names?" Lincoln muttered as Ronnie Anne shrugged.

"You dare to give your mystic item to a supervillain in exchange for a mustache, and you had used that mustache to do things only adults are allowed to do, including watching a movie not suitable for children and driving around in a car when you're not even old enough to have a driver's license?! UNCLEAN!" Rodolfo angrily yelled. Manny cringed at that. "Yeah, Manny's Dad is very strict with certain things, not to mention that he hates dishonesty among other things!" Frida said. "Yeah, that's understandable." Lincoln said. "Sorry, Dad! I was just getting sick and tired of not being able to do call of the cool stuff that the adults get to do, so, of course, I was that desperate! Though, to be fair, that Dr. Jalapeno guy tricked me good!" Manny apologized. "Chipotle!" Dr. Chipotle Jr. said weakly.

"Yeah, from what I can tell from Manny's aura, upon seeing the Guacamole Monster destroy the Salsa Club and realizing that Dr. Chipotle Jr. stole his belt from under his nose, he went to confront him, only for the mad doctor to use a device that controlled Raul and made him turn against Manny! Fortunately, after Frida sang a song that failed to snap Raul out of it, she simply just destroyed Dr. Chipotle Jr's control device, which freed Raul, allowing Manny to get his belt back from the Guacamole Monster, and then, using his powers in conjunction with Raul, converted a pile of corn flour from a nearby silo into a giant tortilla chip that caused the Guacamole Monster to literally eat itself to oblivion!" Aya said. "Which begs the question of how it's here right now." She added.

"It's a newly created version!" Dr. Chipotle Jr clarified weakly. "Anyway, apparently Raul told Manny he wasn't ready for everything that comes with adulthood before parting ways with him by removing himself from Manny's face, much to his pain." Aya said, reading Manny's aura some more. "Ouch! How painful was it having your mustache pulled from your upper lip?" Bobby asked. "Incredibly painful, like a thousand bee stings!" Manny admitted. "If it's anything like being waxed, I hear you." Lori said, shuddering."Waxed?" Frida asked. "Basically it's where someone applies wax to an area of body hair, usually the legs, and then, once the wax is solid enough, they literally pull all of the hair off, roots included, which makes it very painful!" Lori explained, making Frida shudder in fright. That's when Raul flexed himself around to form the word 'Sorry' towards Manny. "It's alright, buddy, you're still the best mustache in the world!" Manny said. Raul then responded by sticking himself onto Manny's upper lip.

"Awww!" The girls gushed. "It doesn't matter, you're all still going down!" Don Baffi said. He then started attacking with the various moustaches on his body. "Zenkaiju Gear!" Kaito and Zox called as said items appeared.

Zenkaiju Gear!

"What are those things?" Frida asked in confusion. "The keys to our secondary forms!" Kaito said. Kaito and Zocks then converted the two Zenkaiju Gears into their Sentai Gear Modes before inserting them into their respective transformation devices.

Zenkaiju Gear!

"Super Change Zenkai/Twokaizer!" They both announced then prepped up their transformation devices.

Kaiju! Kaiju! Super!

Then they did a little dance.

Sei! Sei! Sei, Sei, Sei!

Before firing the triggers on their transformation devices and transforming into their super forms

Babang! Babang! Babang! Babang! Ba-Ba-Ba-Bang! Chou Zenkai!
Yōsorō! Chou Twokai ni Revolution!

"Himitsu no Power-Up! Super Zenkaizer!" Kaito announced. "Kaizoku no Power-Up! Super Twokaizer!" Zocks announced. "Impressive, but you're not the only ones!" Stephano said, tossing Don Baffi a Kaiju Memory. "Place that in the other side of your GaiaRiser." He instructed. "Okay, if you say so!" Don Baffi said. Before clicking the button.

Kaiju!

And inserting it into the GaiaRiser.

Mustache, GaiaVolve!

Once that happened, Don Baffi crossed his arms and moustaches over himself as his entire form got engulfed in a bright brown and platinum egg-shaped energy cocoon that floated up into the air and grew into mountain-sized proportions. Then, the energy cocoon burst open, revealing Don Baffi in a brand new form, which resembled a gigantic King Kong-like Gorilla with his various moustaches in the same places as his original Dopant form, plus three more mustaches on his back in addition to the big one already there, as well as having large horns on his head. "Then we're just going to have to go up in ZenKaijuOh!" Kaito said. "Agreed!" Zox said. They then opened and closed the mouths of their Zenkaiju Gears.

Big Bang!

That caused Kaito to grow to gigantic proportions while Zocks shrank and changed into his SD form before enlarging to giant size, much to everyone's confusion. "Yeah, we don't really understand it either." Cutanner said. "Cho Zenkai Gattai!" Kaito declared.

Zenkai Gattai!

That caused Kaito and Zocks to merge together, with Kaito forming the main body, tail, legs, shoulder cannons, and arms while Zocks formed the upper spine and dinosaur-like head, into the dinosaur/Kaiju-lile Mecha, ZenKaijuOh.

ZenKaijuOh!

"Kansei! ZenKaijuOh!" Kaito and Zocks announced as ZenKaijuOh roared in preparation for battle. "And while they're handling him, we have to take care of these guys!" Bobby said. "We'll see about that!" Knuckles said as he, Tony, and Big Man said as they formed their mustaches into claws. "Let's show these guys what we've got, Raul!" Manny said as Raul extended himself and formed into arms that end in larger versions of Manny's El Tigre claws. Manny then charged towards three Moustache Mafia members and then, using both his own claws and Raul's makeshift claws, had all of their moustaches completely shaved off like an electric razor, making the three scream in embarrassment. "Now that's what I call a Close Shave! *Chuckle!* Get it?" Luan joked. Everyone groaned at that. "She's a comedian with a habit of telling bad puns and elaborate pranks on April Fool's day." Lincoln explained.

"The bad puns, I can figure out! I mean, really, 'a Close Shave'? Can't you come up with something not so obvious?" Frida asked. Luan simply shrugged at that. "As for April Fools Day pranks, when I said 'elaborate', I meant 'incredibly dangerous'! Seriously, her dangerous pranks are what makes us afraid of her during April Fools Day!" Lincoln said. That made the rest of the Loud Siblings, plus Clyde, to shudder in fright. "Oh, come on, you guys! I'm trying to make my pranks a whole lot less dangerous from now on, especially since Aya's cousin Amanko gave me that talk to set me straight!" Luan said. "Still though!" Her brother and sisters said. "Fair point." Luan shrugged. "You still got me and my brother to deal with, punks!" Sciurus Volans said as he and Piscis Volans glided towards the heroes and struck at them with their claws and fins, respectively.

"Dang, those two are annoying!" Carlota complained. "No kidding!" Ryuu said. "Just what kind of Zodiarts are they?" Kairos asked. "From the looks of it, I'd say they're based off the constellations Sciurus Volans and Piscis Volans." Lisa noted. "Piscis Volans? Huh, that's funny, there's actually an alien species named Piscciss Volann." Makros noted. "Really?" Edge asked. "Yeah, they're a race of aquatic fish-like beings, even their planet is entirely covered in water." Makros said. "Even more so than Earth." He added. "Plus, from what I've been told, the planet had kelp vines so big, tall, and thick that they breach through the surface of the water and rise up towards the sky!" Makros said. "Fascinating." Lisa noted. "Does that planet have a name?" Kairos asked. "Yes! I believe it is called Planet Volanntis!" Makros said. "Volanntis? Oh! I remember that planet! We've conquered that planet before we moved on to Straya, especially since me and my mighty Fish Army, as well as some fully aquatic members of the Royal Guard, were able to use their full potential there!" Megalonis said. "Of course." Makros said in annoyance.

"How many planets have the Animarius Empire have conquered already?" Kairos asked. "I don't know, to tell you the truth, we stopped counting years ago!" Megalonis said. "I remember the exact number! It was 25 planets before the Empire tried to conquer Earth!" Master Toadus said. That made everyone gasp in shock. "Yeah." Toadus said. "Your entire empire had conquered 25 planets already? Color me impressed!" Sartana said to King Draco. "We would have conquered 26 if it weren't for her interloping Ronin and Fairy ancestors!" Cerberion said, pointing to Sakura who gripped her spear nervously at the sight of the Cerberus Animarius. "What's with her?" Ryuu asked in confusion. "Cerberion over there killed her parents, older brother, and unborn brother and sister." Lincoln explained. "Nani?!" The Sun Vulcan, Dynaman, and Zenkaigers asked in shock. Even the villains from this world were shocked!

"You kill the unborn? Man, you're more a hardcore villain than I am, and that's saying something!" El Mal Verde said. "Okay, one I had no idea she was pregnant at the time, not like it would have mattered, and two, they were descended from the Man who defeated us 5,000 years ago, I just seized an opportunity." Cerberion said. "You are one sick three-headed dog!" Rodolfo said angrily. "Well they don't call me Hell's Watchdog for nothing!" Cerberion said. "Sounds terrifying!" Sergio noted. "I'll say, he even captures the souls of those he kills." Aurachnid said. "Which I keep on a bandolier, which, unfortunately, got stolen!" Cerberion angrily said. "Spoiler alert, we have your bandolier, though we aren't able to free the souls that are trapped within its orbs!" Lincoln said. "And you never will as long as I'm around!" Cerberion said, laughing wickedly as Sakura growled before placing the Citrine of Thunder over her driver.

Citrine! Gemstone Blitz!

Summoning a giant Citrine that Sakura then threw her spear through, cloaking it in electricity that charged straight towards Cerberion, only for the Cerberus Animarius to bat it aside, redirecting it towards the two Volans Zodiarts! "YEEEEEEEOOOOOWWW!" Sciurus Volans and Piscis Volans yelled in pain as they were electrocuted from the spear. Before exploding allowing their Zodiarts switches to roll up to Carlota and Bobby who simply shrugged before deactivating them. That's when the smoke cleared to two Latino men, who are apparently identical twin brothers due to both of them having the same black hair color and dark tan skin color as each other, wearing the men's uniform for Foundation X. "Damn it!" They both said. "Well, well, well, what have we here?" Ryusei asked, popping up behind them before grabbing them by the shoulders. "Interpol has been looking for you two for quite some time!" He said.

"You know who those two really are, Ryusei?" Clyde asked. "Sure do, Ciero and Mar Planeador, alias the Gliding Marauders, wanted for a series of robberies and assassinations performed with the aide of a hang glider and some gliding suits. My colleagues over at Interpol and I have been on their tail for quite some time." Ryusei said as the two desperately reached inside their jackets for their syringes. However, Ryusei quickly noticed that and managed to stop them. "I don't think so, punks!" He said, taking the syringes and shattering them beneath his boot. "Oh, come on!" Ciero complained. "Not fair!" Mar complained. "Just what were those things that you've just shattered?" Kairos asked. "Syringes Foundation X's Zodiarts have been using to commit suicide rather than being captured." Ryusei explained. "Okay, that's cowardly!" Frida said. "Foundation X is like the Men In Black, officially, neither they nor their members exist, and they are willing to go to extreme lengths to make sure of it." Shintomaru explained. "Yeesh!" Manny said. "No kidding." Shintomaru said opening an Aurora Curtain. "That leads to Interpol HQ." He said.

"Thanks!" Ryusei said as he handcuffed Ciero and Mar together, wrote down a letter explaining everything, stamped it onto Ciero, and then kicked them both into the Aurora Curtain. Meanwhile, the Mustache Dopant was still fighting ZenKaijuOh. "You're not match for the likes of me!" Don Baffi said as he tied up ZenKaijuOh with his multiple mustaches. However, ZenKaijuOh retaliated by firing missiles from its arms and shooting lasers from its shoulder cannons, forcing the Moustache Dopant to let it go in pain. "ZenKaijuOh, Twin Breaker!" Kaito and Zox called. That's when ZenKaijuOh splits into Super Zenkaizer and Super Twokaizer, both of them giant-size, before they then lunged forward to deliver a blue drill thrust and yellow energy slash simultaneously straight at the Moustache Dopant before combining back into ZenKaijuOh, just as the Moustache Dopant exploded while his GaiaRiser and Moustache and Kaiju Memories shattered. Causing Don Baffi to return to normal and lay on the ground, unconscious. "Looks you two are next!" Kairos, pointing at Splendius and Mavortius.

"Oh yeah? Well, take this!" Splendius said as he opened his mouth open wide and snatched Bobby before swallowing him whole, much to Lori's horror. "Boo-Boo Bear!" Lori said in fright before grabbing Splendius by his legs and repeatedly slamming up onto the floor repeating "Drop it!" That forced Splendius to literally upchuck Bobby from his stomach and out of his mouth, much to everyone's disgust. "I'm okay!" Bobby said as Lori tossed Splendius into Mavortius before Ryuu pulled out his DynaRod. "Black Star Flash!" Ryuu announced as he unleashed his finisher at both Animarius soldiers, though Splendius took more of the blow than Mavortius, causing the former to explode and revert into a Soul Core with the image of a Splendid Toadfish on it while the sent back a bit from the explosion! "That only leaves you." Ryu said. "Please have mercy, I surrender!" The Barred Tiger Salamander Animarius begged.

"Hey, wait a minute, I recognize you, you're Axolota's older brother Mavortius!" Gorf said. That made everyone look at Gorf in shock and confusion. "Gorf, am I glad to see you! How's my sister? I tried asking around, but they refused to answer me!" Mavortius said. "Don't worry, Axolota is safe, she's just hiding out due to a tracking chip they placed in her Soul Core." Gorf explained. "They did what?!" Mavortius asked in shock. "Yes, we were shocked as well, but like I said, she is in a safe place that no matter how hard they try, they will never find her. And, we are actually planning on marrying after the current situation blows over." Gorf said. That last part took Mavortius by surprise, "Wait, you've already proposed to her?" Mavortius asked. "He sure did, and it was such a beautiful moment!" Fuka said. "In that case, in addition to joining your side, I'll give my blessings to you and my sister!" Mavortius said. "I am sure she will appreciate that, Mavortius." Gorf said.

"Can we join in too?" Tapalcuard said as he and Hylinook came over to Mavortius's side. "The way that little girl beat up that huge guy scares us and we'd rather not be on a side that opposes her." Hylinook said, pointing to Lola. "Uh, sure! Welcome to the resistance, Tapalcuard and Cousin Hylinook!" Gorf said. "What kind of animals are these guys even supposed to be?" Lincoln asked Lisa over the comm link. "Mavoritus is clearly a Barred Tiger Salamander, while Tapalcuard is a Mexican Burrowing Caecilian, also known as a Tapalcua or Tepelcua, which is a limbless amphibian similar in appearance to Earthworms, and Hylinook is clearly a Northern Glass Frog." Lisa said. "Northern Glass Frog?" Lincoln asked in confusion. "Named for the translucent skin that is on their bellies." Lisa explained. That's when Lincoln and everyone else took notice of Hylinook's translucent belly, which showed his internal organs, especially his white digestive system, lungs, and liver, and red beating heart, making everyone, minus Lucy, get queasy.

"That's disturbing." Aurachnid said. Lola then turned green and then puked over the edge of the area floor, where the vomit fell into the lava. "If he's joining us, can we please get him something to cover that up?" She asked. "Would a cooking apron work?" Leni asked. "As long as we don't have to look at that, no offense Hylinook-san." Sakura said. "None taken." Hylinook shrugged. "Though, I'll probably just use the apron for cooking, everywhere else, I'll just wear a full-body robe!" He added. "Yes, please, anything!" Lola said. "Especially if you somehow visit Japan, I'd rather not risk how Axavier-kun and Sakina-chan would be able to handle that." Sakura noted. "Who and who?" Hylinook asked in confusion. "Axcelsior-san and Sakira-san's cho kawaii twins!" Sakura explained, showing a picture on her phone of the two baby Animarius playing with blocks. "*Gasp!* Axcelsior and Sakira have already gotten together and started a family?!" Tapalcuard asked in surprise. "Yeah, they're currently hiding out in a cave in Japan with Brachios-san, Savannara-san, Thornoloch-san, and Corroboros-san, all long stories, while also helping out at a Shinto Shrine mine and Shin-kun's cousins study at!" Sakura explained.

"Oh, that makes sense!" Mavortius noted. Of course, General Terriblis growled angrily at the sight of three of his own soldiers quickly defecting from his army. "I know your pain, when Appolonius betrayed us, we were all hit with indescribable emotions." Otoha told the Golden Poison Dart Frog General. "Those three aren't the first ones to betray me!" General Terriblis said angrily, pointing at Bufoam and Deltoad. "And I'll make sure that those three do not get away with defecting from my army!" He angrily declared as he threw his spear towards Mavortius, Tapalcuard, and Hylinook, only for Gorf to quickly intercept the attack by catching the spear. "Have you no shame, brother?" Gorf asked in disgust. "You know very well that I'm willing to go to any length to do what must to be done for the Empire!" Terriblis retorted. "Wait, that guy's your brother?" Frida asked in confusion. "Unfortunately." Gorf said. "Yeesh! Sounds like he's got a grudge against you, among other issues!" Frida noted. "Sadly, yes." Gorf said.

Terriblis then charged towards Gorf. While Gorf pulled out his katana and did the same.

Meanwhile...

Azalee, Aden, Becky, Ricky, and Dodge were facing the Titanium Titan. "You kids are no match for the Titanium Titan!" Titanium Titan said as he then morphed his arms into gatling guns and fired an endless barrage of titanium bullets at the five heroes. Ricky tried using his magnetic powers on the Titan, but it only caused him to laugh. "That tickles!" He said. "That's odd, we used a car magnet on that guy the last time we fought him and it worked strongly on him!" Manny said in confusion. "As a Dopant, his body must be made entirely out of Titanium, which isn't magnetic, but it does give me an idea, one that requires Azalee's incredible flexibility, and both of your Alchemic talents." Ouros told the Alquemie twins. Aden and Azalee nodded at that, knowing what Ouros is implying. "You got it, Ouros! Hey, Titan! Try to hit me!" Azalee dared, running around while Aden snuck around as well.

"Okay, then, if you insist!" Titanium Titan said he then morphed his arms into numerous metallic tentacles before attempting to attack Azalee with them. However, Azalee was able to use not only her insane flexibility to dodge every one, but also her Alchemy powers to turn every tentacle into water with a simple touch! "What?! But How?!" The Titanium Titan asked in shock. "I come from a long line of people who practice the ancient art of Alchemy, which despite originally being used to turn ordinary metals into gold and other things, my family has refined the art, and thanks to my bond with Phoela here, I can do so much more! Plus I've always been real flexible." Azalee said, stretching. "Crazy part is in my previous life, I had a friend who was seriously strong, seriously she can lift a vending machine with little effort!" Edge noted. "By the way, better watch your back!" Edge added. "Watch my back? Why would I watch my back?" Titanium Titan asked in confusion.

Before turning around to see Aden. "Hello." He said, thrusting the Ouroblade's snake head into his body as a large Alchemic seal passed over him. "Try it again, Ricky!" Aden said jumping away. "Okay!" Ricky said as he used Magnetic powers on the Titanium Titan again. This time it worked as he came to Ricky like a moth to a flame! "Hello!" Ricky said before using his magnetic powers to toss the titan around like a yo-yo! "I'm... Gonna... Be... Sick!" The Titanium Titan said during each tossing. "Really? If Titanium isn't actually magnetic, then how exactly did his liquid metal arms become attracted to that car magnet we've used against him the last time we've defeated him?" Manny asked. "My best guess is that the Titanium Titan's arms aren't actually 100% Titanium as his name would suggest, but rather they are actually made of a Titanium/Iron alloy!" Phoelacandra said. "This...Is...So...Not...Fair!" The Titan complained. "Mind if I join in?" Gentaro asked. Before inserting the NS Magphone in his driver.

N Magnet! S Magnet! NS Magnet, On!

Entering his super form. "Sure! Go right ahead!" Ricky said as he used is magnetic powers to hold the Titanium Titan in place. "Uh oh." The Titanium Titan said in fear. Gentaro then started shooting at the Titanium Titan with the Magnet Cannons on his shoulders. Sending him crashing into the floor. "Now let's wrap it up!" Becky said as she, Dodge, and Ricky pulled out the Wild Bazooka. "Ouroblade!" Aden called, energizing his sword. At the same time, Gentaro had the twin cannons on his shoulders detach and then combine into the horseshoe magnet-themed cannon known as the NS-Magnet Cannon, which then hovered right in front of him as he then flips the button cover on the N MagPhone half and presses the button behind it.

Limit Break!

"Uh oh!" Titanium Titan said, trying to escape, only for Azalee to trap him in stone using Alchemy powers. "Darn it, this never happens to me when White Pantera and I were crime-fighting partners!" Titanium Titan complained. Curious, Aya decided to check out his aura. "Fire!/Ouroboros Break!/Rider Cho-Dengeki Bomber!" Becky, Aden, and Gentaro called, unleashing their finishers at the Titanium Dopant. That caused the Titanium Titan to get blasted before, due to his Dopant form's metallic nature, the electromagnetism enveloped him and then compressed him until he imploded, also causing his GaiaRiser and Titanium Memory to shatter. Once the smoke cleared, the Titanium Titan was seen laying on the floor all dizzy instead of being unconscious. "Oooooh! My aching everything!" The Titanium Titan said in pain while dizzy. "Huh, he's still conscious." Becky said. "Just what is this guy's deal anyway?" Dodge asked. "He was once my Dad's crime fighting sidekick." Manny explained. "Really? Then, why is he a bad guy now?" Ricky asked in confusion.

"From what I'm seeing in his aura, aside from the fact that he turned to a life of crime after constantly failing as a solo hero, it's mainly a jealousy thing, jealousy...of you and your mom!" Aya told Manny. "Well, I'm not exactly surprised, because he blamed my entire existence for his misery! Heck, he already tried three times to plot against, the first time by kidnapping Frida to lure me into his and my Dad's old hideout the Puma Pit, though my Dad was able to save me and Frida in time, the second time by pretending to renounce his evil ways, heck he even wore a secret "truth proof" vest that rendered him immune to the Bronze Boots of Truth just to get past that, which is actually part of his plan to not only gain my Dad's trust, but also, with the help of the Squids that he trained, to eliminate me, so that it would be just him and Dad, though Frida and my Dad were able to help foil that plan by taking out his Squids and giant robot, though the Titanium Titan got swallowed by a whale upon trying to escape, which he obviously survived though I don't want to know how, and the third time by disguising himself as a new teen supervillain named Silver Wolf and had Frida hang out with him, just so that he would take her away from me and have her turn against me when he injured me, though, thankfully, Frida ended up choosing me over him, which resulted in him revealing his true identity and then us defeating him in a junkyard with a car magnet and a car crusher, though he got away as a malformed cube of himself!" Manny said, though the girls, plus Rodolfo and Emiliano, were greatly outraged and disgusted at Titanium Titan's whole 'Silver Wolf' scheme. "Disgusting! A short adult man like you disguising as a teenager to get close to a young girl like Frida, just to use to get revenge on Manny?! Have you got no shame?!" Dodge asked angrily.

"It's men like you that makes me glad to be a lesbian!" She said, kicking the Titanium Titan in the groin. "AIYEEEEE!" Titanium Titan yelled in pain while covering his crotch. "You said it, my love!" Becky said, following suit. That made the Titanium Titan yell in pain again. "Let us in..." Anita said. "On that action!" Nikki said as she and Anita then whacked the Titanium Titan upside the head with their batons and kicked him in the crotch, making him yell in pain again. "Would you give a guy a break?!" Titanium Titan asked in a high pained voice. "Speaking of love, Manny, when I said that he's jealous of you and your Mom, there's more to that than you think!" Aya said. "What do you mean by that?" Manny asked. "Well, it seems that the Titanium Titan, real name Tito, had unrequited feelings for your Dad." Aya said awkwardly. "That certainly explains a lot." Rodolfo said with a weirded out look on his face. "Okay, fine, you got me! I'm actually gay, well, formerly bisexual if you know what I mean!" Titanium Titan confessed.

"But, Tito, why didn't ever tell me about your actual feelings in the first place?" Rodolfo asked in confusion. "I tried to, but then you started talking about that Maria girl!" Titan said. "Plus, there's the fact that gay men aren't very well respected at the time!" He added. "Eh, fair point, and sorry to disappoint, you but I am definitely straight, and only ever saw you as a sidekick and friend." Rodolfo said. That made the Titanium Titan gasp in shock and disappointment. "Tough break, big guy." Clyde said awkwardly.

Meanwhile...

Casey, Jalissa, Nadeshiko, and Kanon were up against Sergio a.k.a. Senor Siniestro a.k.a. the Desperado Dopant. "You meddlers are no match for me!" Sergio declared as he drew out his guns from his side holsters and then fired energy bullets from them and his arm blasters, though Casey was able to deflect them by coating his whole body in metal while Jalissa did the same by summoning vines that blocked them. "Hey, Sergio! I just realized something, if you're Senior Sinestro, does that mean that every obstacle Manny and I faced when we were trying to race to school in order to not get expelled: the wall that definitely wasn't there last night, the Pirahna infested river of Horchata, the road of Bubble Wrap, the stampede of Bulls, that was all you?!" Frida asked while avoiding Zoe's attacks. "As a matter of fact, yes, it was me! I was also the one that spied on your whole plan, snuck in through the open window, seriously you should have kept your windows shut, and unplugged the alarm clock while you two fell asleep! Why, you ask? So that when El Tigre gets expelled, I would bring the whole school down to its knees!" Sergio answered before laughing maniacally. Vice Principal Chakal facepalmed at that. "Why didn't I think of that?" He asked incredulously. "Dude! You really hate me that much?! Do you realize that if Frida and I get expelled, we'll get sent to separate schools and never see each other again!" Manny said angrily. "Yeah! My Dad threatened to send me to a military school!" Frida complained. "And my parents threatened to send me to a charm school, in Switzerland!" Manny complained.

"YEAH WHAT IS WRONG WITH YOU?! IT WAS SWITZERLAND FOR CRYING OUT LOUD!" Jorge said. "What's wrong with Switzerland?" Kanon asked in confusion. "Everything! The lack of corruption and crime, the cold snow-topped mountains, and especially *Shudder!* the Yodeling!" Jorge said in fear. "IT'S UNNATURAL!" He said. "Wow, you have issues with that country, sir!" Casey said. "Not as big as the issues these two have with Manny and Frida." Jalissa said, pointing to Sergio and Vice Principal Chakal. "Yeah, come to think of it, why does the Vice Principal hate you two so much anyways?" Casey asked Manny and Frida. "Oh he's always been this way, he's always super strict, pretty much the entire school, students and faculty alike hate him." Manny said. "Although his personal feelings towards us may have something to do with the time we snuck into his office and took a pair of scissors to cut off part of his mustache while he was taking a nap." Frida admitted. Jorge started laughing at this. "Good one, you two! But if you ever try that with my mustache, it won't be pretty, I'll tell you that!" He said.

That made both Manny and Frida gulp in fright. "Of course not, Grandpapi!" Manny said. "Wouldn't dream of it, Vice Principal Chakal's mustache is dumb anyway, nothing like yours!" Frida said nervously. "Good! Because, I really don't want anyone to ruin my macho mustache!" Jorge said. "Well it doesn't matter!" Sergio said, charging, only for Casey to turn his arm into metal and slam it into the Dopant's body before Kanon pulled out the Da Vinci Eyecon and placed it in her driver.

Eye! Bacchiri Minna! Bacchiri Minna!

That summoned the Da Vinci Parka Ghost, who flew around Kanon before she pulled the lever, letting it merge with her in place of her usual parka.

Kaigan! Da Vinci! (Gothic bell ring) Issaigassai! Chō tensai!

She and Nadeshiko then pulled the levers on their drivers.

Dai Kaigan! Da Vinci! Omega Drive!
Limit Break!

"I wonder if there is a way to call on that guy's parents!" Casey noted. "We can handle that later." Jalissa said.

Meanwhile...

Daileon, LuchaKaiser, ZenKaijuOh, and Giant Robot Sanchez were up against El Mal Verde as well as Monsterzuma, the Guacamole Monster, and the Alebrije Monster. "Maser mode!" Yui called, switching the Aurora Breaker to Maser mode and firing at the four giant enemies. However, the Guacamole Monster squashed and stretched its body to avoid the attack while the Alebrije Monster was nimble enough to dodge the attack as well. Monsterzuma, on the other hand, was able to use the serpent head he has in place of a left arm to swallow the attack whole, giving himself a power boost, while El Mal Verde used his mechanical right arm to reflect the attack back at LuchaKaiser, causing serious damage to the Mecha. "Let's see you handle this!" Subaru said as the Illusion Grappler fired off it's grappler and entangled the four giants together. However, due to it's amorphous body made of pure Guacamole, the Guacamole Monster was able to not only slip itself out of the grappler's grip, but also lubricate the grappler enough to allow the other three giants to break free easily.

"Okay, I'm starting to get a real dislike for Guacamole." Carl said in disgust. "And what exactly is Guacamole?" Yui asked in confusion. "A dish made of mashed Avocados, chopped Onions, Lime Juice, Salt, Jalapeno Peppers, and Cilantro often eaten as a dip, though some non-traditional recipes may call for Sour Cream, Tomatoes, Basil, or Peas." Lisa said over the comm link. "EWWWWWWW!" Yui said in disgust. "I absolutely don't like Peas, or Onions, or even Peppers, especially the incredibly spicy ones! Seriously, I was once tricked into eating a super spicy pepper after one of the girls managed to sneak one into my sandwich during lunch, and it really burned my tongue so much, that drinking milk wasn't enough to quench it and I had to run out of the classroom and all the way down to one of the sinks to drink lots of water!" Yui complained. "Is that one of the girls that made fun of your underwear?" Carl whispered. "That's just one of their methods." Yui said unfortunately, petting one of her tails for comfort.

"How many of these girls are there?" Carl asked. "They're a group of five mean girls! There's Ahmya, who's the stealth artist, Chizue, who's the muscle, Haya, who's the speedster, Fumiko, who's the brains and Second-in-Command, and Kirika, the very charismatic leader to the whole group!" Yui explained. "They're all cute and beautiful in appearance, but they're really mean on the inside! What's worse is that they're known for forcing those that they bully to not tell any adults or family members about what they've done, lest they humiliate, torture, or even severely injure anyone that refuses to obey them!" Yui explained. "Classic bully techniques." Adelaide said in disgust. "What a bunch of brats!" Subaru said in disgust. "Tell me about it, I'm just glad I don't have to deal with them anymore." Yui said.

"Did you ever tell your parents or your big brother about them?" Carl asked. "No, mostly because I was too scared of what those bullies might do to me if I told on them!" Yui admitted in shame. "Well, they're thousands of miles away in Japan, and you're in the United States, so you don't have to worry about that." Carl pointed out. "I guess that's a good point, Carl-kun! Perhaps I'll tell my family about those bullies sometime after this ordeal is over!" Yui noted. "Hey, I have an idea, why don't you and Subaru join Par's Karate Dojo, Carl and I are both students there, plus you could learn some self defense techniques that could be beneficial in our fight against the Pecadiablos and if those girls ever do somehow come here and give you a hard time, help with that as well!" Adelaide suggested. "Huh, I never really thought of that!" Yui noted. "Plus it'd be a good chance for us to bond as couples..." Adelaide said. "And you'd get to see Carl try and fail miserably in trying to best me in sparring matches, which happens literally every time!" She whispered to Subaru.

That made Subaru start chuckling a little bit. "In the meantime, we still have to deal with these guys! Manny, Frida, any ideas?" Carl asked over the comm link. "In the meantime, we still have to deal with these guys! Manny, Frida, any ideas?" Carl asked over the comm link. "But we don't have any!" Manny said. "Well, here's hoping illusions of Tortilla Chips will work!" Subaru said as the Illusion Grappler shot out a light that made it look like the Guacamole Monster was covered in Tortilla Chips. Curiously, the Guacamole Monster tried to grab one of the chips, only for its fingers phase right through it, confusing the creature. Before just shoving his entire hand in his mouth and starting to eat itself. "Wow, what a baka!" Yui said with a laugh. Pretty soon, the Guacamole Monster ate itself until its completely obliterated, with some of blobs of guacamole splattering over some of the heroes and villains. "Ew." Carl said.

"I don't know, it looks delicious!" CJ said as he was covered in some guacamole. He then removed his helmet and started licking the guacamole off of himself. "Ew." Carl and Yui said. "Any ideas for the others?" Adelaide asked. "Well I once tossed a book at El Mal Verde, but it didn't do anything." Frida said. "So, the first time I've defeated him, I've accidentally set off the heat ray visor of Loba Roja, another one of the three heroes the El Mal Verde at ten years ago, which I've found stuck in his teeth along with Capitan Águila's Helmet of Power and Dad's missing wallet, seriously, that big dude needs to floss, which caused his mouth and nostrils to burn up from the inside, which put him in enough pain to allow my Dad to kick him in the stomach hard enough to spit me out, then after I was caught by my Grandpapi in Sombrero of Chaos's jet mode, I was launched towards the giant Bandito with enough force to knock his teeth out!" Manny said. "Yeah, too bad for you that I'm managed to get all my teeth back into my gums sometime after that humiliating defeat!" El Mal Verde pointed out. "Ew!" Yui and Adelaide said in disgust. "Well, during that tournament thing, Django of the Dead told me that El Mal Verde had a cavity in one of his front teeth, which I've managed to poke one of my claws into and cause him enough pain to be able to beat him, the Alebrije Monster, and Giant Robot Sanchez, who was a villain back then!" El Tigre said. "Too bad for you that I've already gotten my cavity fixed and filled up by an underground dentist, just because I really needed it!" El Mal Verde said while pointing at a gold filling in one of his front teeth.

"Dang! So much for that weakness!" Manny complained. "Now what?" Clyde asked. "I don't know about you guys, but this fight sure is making me hungry!" El Mal Verde said before eyeing Clyde, who was covered in some guacamole. "And I'm in the mood for Guacamole covered spider!" He said, grabbing Clyde and picking him up above his mouth. He then opened his mouth before dropping Clyde into it and then swallowed him whole, much to the chagrin of Shibogumon. "HEY! I WAS SUPPOSED TO BE THE ONE KILL ANANSI, NOT YOU, YOU BIG DUMB GREEN GIANT!" Shibogumon angrily shouted. "Sorry, but you know what they say, ya snooze, you lose!" El Mal Verde said. El Mal Verde then started laughing maniacally before making a sound as if he was choking on something. "It feels like something just bit the inside of my throat!" He said hoarsely. Before his body started swelling. "Uh, what's happening?" Frida asked. "Aurachnid-san's venom is special, if he bites anyone related by blood to Clyde-kun, they get the powers originally used by his ancestor Akoma-san, anyone else, they swell up and explode." Sakura said.

"EXPLODE?!" The local superheroes and supervillains asked in fright. "Uh oh." El Mal Verde said exploding, allowing Clyde and Aurachnid to safely, albeit covered in something I don't even want to begin to describe, land on the ground. "Well, that's something I never wanted to experience!" Clyde said in disgust. "Agreed! Yuck!" Aurachnid said in equal disgust. "You okay, buddy?" Lincoln asked as he and Sakura rushed over. "Aside from being covered in gunk, I'm okay!" Clyde said. "Good, someone call Emizel, we have another one!" Lincoln said. "I'll do it!" Fuka said as she pulled out her cellphone. "You know, Emizel is actually one of Adara's favorite characters." Kairos told Fuka. "Really? How so?" Fuka asked. "Well she tends to draw some fan art, especially centered around her favorite ship which is him and Nagi." Kairos said. "Funny you should mention that, because Emizel and Nagi are currently dating each other!" Fuka said with a blush.

"Oh man, we have got to bring her here later so she can meet them." Kairos said. "Right, but for now, I'd better call Emizel over here!" Fuka said as she dialed a number on her phone. "Hey, Emizel, we have another soul, and it's a big guy." She told the Junior Grim Reaper. "How big are we talking about?" Emizel asked. "About as big as the giant robots our friends use." Fuka said. "Okay, I'll see to it about that soul, though if he's as big as you say he is, then I'm afraid he won't be able to fit into the Prinny-Making Kit, even when judged for his crimes! What's the guy's name, by the way?" Emizel asked. "Last, I checked, his name is El Mal Verde!" Fuka answered. "The Green Evil? Okay, I'll see what we can do about this issue soon." He said. "Great, oh, and also, it turns out my boyfriend's sister is a big fan of your video game counterpart and a big shipper of you and Nagi." Fuka said.

"Wait, what?" Emizel asked in confusion. "Yeah, I know, crazy, right?" Fuka asked. "You of all people have a boyfriend?" Emizel asked. "And just what is that supposed to mean?" Fuka asked annoyed. "You are known for being terrible at romance, last time I've checked!" Emizel said. "Plus, does he know about that whole 'taking over the world' thing you used to dream about?" He asked. "Yes, he knows, he's a fan of Disgaea too, so I can't imagine him not knowing." Fuka said. "Does this mean that you've finally found the 'handsome prince' that you've been waiting for?" Emizel asked. "As a matter of fact, he happens to be a Lucharanger and the guy Hikaru and Isamu asked to borrow those binoculars from you to look for!" Fuka said. "The reincarnation of that Chronogel guy?" Emizel asked. "Yep!" Fuka said. "And word of advice, when you meet him, don't bring up his height, he's rather sensitive about it." She whispered.

"Okay?" Emizel said in confusion. "Since El Mal Verde is dead now, I can use this to my advantage!" Sartana said as she then strummed her guitar (*KABONG!*), causing magic energy to swirl around in a big golden energy tornado until El Mal Verde is resurrected as a gigantic undead skeleton version of himself. "~I'm Back!~" El Mal Verde said in a singsong tone. "Oh, come on, that is so not fair! Hold on, Emizel, this crazy skeleton lady named Sartana just made things a little more complicated!" Fuka said. "Did you just say Sartana?" Emizel asked in surprise. "Well, her full name is Sartana of the Dead, but yeah!" Fuka confirmed. "Why do you ask?" Fuka asked in confusion. "I wonder...put me through to the council!" Emizel ordered a nearby Prinny. "Aye Aye, dood!" The Prinny said with a salute. "Fuka, I'm going to need you to send a picture of this Sartana real quick." Emizel said as several holograms, including ones of Domhartz and Clockwork appeared. "What is it that you needed us, young Grim Reaper?" Domhartz asked.

"Well, truth be told, it's a situation that concerns certain members of the Council, specifically La Muerte and Xibalba!" Emizel said, focusing on two members of the council, one being a female humanoid being made entirely of white sugar candy with knee-length black licorice hair that is tied in a low ponytail with bangs split on either side and multi-colored glowing eyes with aqua eyeshadow that are in shades of gold and red, who was wearing a red dress decorated with cempasuchil (Mexican marigold flowers) all over her dress and marigold flowers with lit white wax candles at the hem of her dress, an extremely large, wide-brimmed sombrero bedecked with more lit candles and marigolds, plus small skulls, pink-plumed, curly, swirly feathers and palm leaves, and a circular gold locket on a choker (La Muerte), and the other one being a skeletal male humanoid made out of black tar and ectoplasm with green eyes and blood-red skulls for pupils, a pair of large, black angel wings, a white mustache and beard, and long, spindly, razor-sharp fingers, who was wearing black gloves, a regal black cloak covered by conquistador armor, and a silver crown with spiraling, branching, horns sprouting from the both sides, topped with black wax candles lit with green flames (Xibalba). "If my theory is correct..." Emizel said as his phone beeped, allowing him to see a picture of Sartana. "...you may find this being familiar." He said, showing the picture.

\

The very sight of Sartana made everyone, including both La Muerte and Xibalba, as well as another member of the Afterlife Council who was a large and towering bell-shaped male immortal being that appeared to be completely and entirely made out of glowing gold golden candle wax, with his hair and beard being made completely out of soft, fluffy clouds, who was wearing a large beaded necklace made of stone that resembles those of a priest or a monk, with some of his beads resembling skulls, and a large stone emblem in the center similar to a witch's knot, and robes that appeared to be made of glowing gold golden candle wax (The Candle Maker), incredibly shocked, though Xibalba was even more shocked when he noticed the white wings on Sartana's back. "Sartana, but why does she have her wings, they were stripped from her body before we banished her!" Xibalba said incredulously. "Really? Why did you do that?" Emizel asked in confusion.

"You see, sometime after our marriage, Xibalba and I started a family and we ended up having 9 children, specifically 3 daughters and 6 sons, and Sartana is one of our daughters!" La Muerte said. "She was also my favorite child, considering that she's taken much of her personality and looks from me!" Xibalba said. "Unfortunately, things took a dark turn when she was left at the altar by a mortal man named Jorge Rivera." La Muerte said. "How dark?" Emizel asked in worry. "She flew into a rage so great and terrible, that she brutally murdered one of her sisters in a way that's too horrifying for even me to describe!" Xibalba answered in sheer horror. This made Emizel and the rest of the council wince. "Sorry I asked!" Emizel said.

"No need for apologies, young one!" Xibalba said. "Anyway, we were so devastated at the loss of one of our children, that we had to punish her severely, first by severing her wings in order to take away most of her godly powers, second by connecting her life force and remaining power to a mystic guitar that, should it ever be destroyed, it would make her temporarily disintegrate, only for her, due to her still having some degree of immortality, to regenerate after some time in the Land of the Cursed, and third by banishing her to the Land of the Living!" La Muerte explained. "If she has her wings back, it could prove to be a bad precedence." Clockwork noted. "Yeah, I agree! Even the Book of Life agrees!" The Candle Maker said while pointing a levitating sentient book, which was colored brown with a design on the cover that consisted of a red heart made of hearts, with one winged heart spitting flames, thundering clouds, two open generous hands, two doves a stream of water, four vines, a human-faced sun and moon, and four golden winged skulls, a golden detailing, made a few miming motions.

"Question, Xibalba, what exactly happened to Sartana's wings once they were severed?" Emizel asked. "Well, I decided to hide them in a random cave somewhere in the Land of the Dead, mainly to prevent them from falling into the wrong hands!" Xibalba admitted. "That begs the question of how she got them back." Domhartz said. "Well, Sartana couldn't have found them by herself! After all, she was banished since 1962, and if she ever dared to try to get back to the Land of the Dead, my wife and I would have detected her presence there already!" Xibalba noted. That's when the Book of Life pondered a bit before perking up in realization and then opened itself up and showed everyone pages depicting the events that led to the discovery of both Sartana's wings and Otoha. "If I'm reading this correctly, it would seem the discovery of the wings were accidental, it seems these two beings were searching for this woman who happened to be hiding out in the cave the wings were in!" The Candle Maker noted. "Also, apparently, they were guided by a young undead skeleton boy!" He added. That made everyone gasp in shock.

Meanwhile...

Clyde, having already been cleaned off by Ronnie Anne, was fighting against Shibogumon, Pinaviztla, Aranea, and Black Widow. "Okay, Ladies, remember, you can hurt him, but I want to be the one to actually kill Anansi, got it?" Shibogumon said to Pinaviztla, Aranea, and Black Widow. "Whatever." Black Widow said as the four Spider-themed villains fired webbing at Clyde. "Battle Spider Mode!" Clyde called, entering his secondary form and using his energy blade to cut up the webs. "You want to face me, why involve them? Or are you too much of a coward to take me on alone?" Clyde taunted Shibogumon. "Coward? No. I'm just taking using strategy here, since these three have a Spider motif like me!" Shibogumon said. "Not like it matters anyway, you're going down!" He said.

Rider Sting!
Rider Slash!

Suddenly, Pinavizitla and Aranea were struck from behind by Kamen Riders TheBee and Sasword. "Cayenne? Kagura? When did you guys get here?" Clyde asked in confusion. "Just now, the commander requested that we accompany him." Cayenne said as Zen Fudo walked up. "Mikage sensed that the last of the Shadow Angels had been revived and requested that we find a way where they were so he could try talking to them again." He explained. That took everyone by surprise. "I still say this is a bad idea, both you and Mikage know first hand how stubborn the Shadow Angels can be." Kagura said. "Especially since Futaba is still mad about his death at the hands of humans!" Cayenne said. "Your concerns are appreciated." Mikage said after Zen allowed him to take control. "Uh, who's voice am I hearing?" Manny asked in confusion. "It's a long story." Lincoln said. Just then, Pinaviztla and Aranea quickly recovered from the previous attack. "You're going to pay for that!" Pinaviztla said.

She then caught Cayenne with her webbing and then bit him in an area without armor with her sharp fangs. "My Bad Fortune Venom won't kill you, but it will leave you in such excruciating pain and with such bad luck, you'll wish it did!" She declared, laughing maniacally. "Ow! Bad luck? What kind of bad luck?" Cayenne asked, right before he got struck repeatedly by lightning from out of nowhere. Everyone cringed at that. "Just what kind of Spider are you, especially, I thought there are no Spider Animarius in the Empire?" Lincoln asked in confusion. "Actually, there used to be an Arachnid Tribe, but before King Draco was born, they, along with a few other tribes, tried to stage a rebellion, saying they didn't like how the King and Queen were ruling Animari Prime, but they failed and their Soul Cores were banished to a deep part of the castle." Toadus said. That made everyone, especially Sakura, look at Toadus in shock and confusion. "Nani? But you told me previously that there were only eight Animarius Tribes? Why didn't tell us that there are more Animarius Tribes than that?" Sakura asked in confusion. "After the rebellion was squashed, the King, Queen, and my father, the general before me, agreed that they should be stricken from all official records, (Also, It's A Last Minute Thing I Recently Came Up With) I'm the only one remaining that even has any idea where their Soul Cores are." Toadus explained.

Meanwhile...

General Kabuto finally made it to Animari Prime as he landed his ship on the ground. Stepping off, he saw nothing but a wasteland in all directions. "The Tree of Life's absence must have done this." He noted before looking at a rather expansive crater. "This is where the Castle lied before we left." Kabuto said before noticing several treasure chests in the base of the crater. "Hmm? Now, what's all this?" Kabuto asked as he then approached one of the treasure chests. Before opening it up and yelping in fright as the first thing he saw was a Soul Core with the image of a female Black Widow! "SPIDER!" Kabuto yelled in fright. He then hyperventilating before realizing something in confusion. "Wait, why is there a Soul Core of a Spider in here? There aren't supposed be any Arachnid-themed Animarius, is there?" Kabuto asked himself in confusion.

He then saw that the chest was full of Soul Cores decorated with the images of various Arachnids: Spiders, Scorpions, Ticks, anything with eight legs and two segmented bodies was in there. "These are all Arachnids, could it be? The Lost Arachnid Tribe? I thought that was just a myth!" Kabuto said before looking at the other chests. "I wonder." He said. He then opened another chest, revealing Soul Cores decorated with the images of various types of Crustaceans: Crabs, Lobsters, Shrimps, Prawns, Crayfish, Isopods, Remipedes, Copepods, etc., with one in the center front having the image of a Red King Crab. "The Crustaceans." Kabuto said opening another. That one was revealed to be filled with Soul Cores with the images of various Myriapods, specifically Centipedes, Millipedes, Symphylans, Pauropods, and Arthropleurideans, with one in the center front having the image of a Halcyon giant centipede (scientific name: Scolopendra alcyona). "Myriapods." Kabuto said.

He then opened the fourth chest, which contained Soul Cores decorated with the images of various Mollusks, specifically Gastropods, Bivalves, Cephalopods, Chitons, Scaphopods, Aplacophorans, Monoplacophorans, Rostroconchs, Helcionelloids, and Tentaculitids, with one in the center front having the image of a Parapuzosia seppenradensis, the largest Ammonite in existence. "Mollusks." Kabuto said. He then opened a fifth box containing Soul Cores decorated with the images of various types of Worms, including Annelids, Nematodes, Platyhelminthes, Nemerteans, Chaetognaths, Priapulids, and Nematomorphans, with one in the center front having the image of a Websteroprion armstrongi, an ancient giant Bobbit Worm. "Worms." Kabuto said. He then opened a sixth chest containing Soul Cores decorated with the images of various types of Cnidarians, specifically Jellyfish, Hydroids, Sea Anemones, Corals, Sea Pens, Sea Fans, Sea Whips, Sea Pansies, Ceriantharians, and Myxozoans, plus the monotypic species Polypodium hydriforme, with one in the center front having the image of a Lion's Mane Jellyfish. "Cnidarians." Kabuto noted.

He then opened a seventh chest that contained Soul Cores decorated with the images of various Echinoderms, including Starfish a.k.a. Sea Stars, Brittle Stars, Basket Stars, Sea Urchins, Sand Dollars, Sea Cucumbers, and Crinoids a.k.a. Sea Lilies or Feather Stars, with one in the center front having the image of a Sunflower Sea Star. "Echinoderms." Kabuto said. He then opened the eighth chest see a pile of Soul Cores decorated with the images of various Entognathans, consisting of various species of non-insect Hexopods, specifically Proturans (Coneheads), Diplurans (Two-Pronged Bristletails), and Collembolans (Springtails), with one Soul Core in the center front having the image of a Cosmopolitan Springtail. "Entognathans." Kabuto said. He then opened the ninth chest, which was filled with Soul Cores decorated with the images of various Dinocarids, which consisted of ancient marine arthropod subgroups, specifically Radiodonts, Opabiniids, and Kerygmachelids, with one Soul Core in the center front having the image of an Anomalocaris. "Dinocarids." Kabuto said.

He then opened the tenth chest, which was filled with Soul Cores decorated with the images of various different types of Artiopods, which includes not only Trilobites, but also Nektaspids, Agnostids, Concilitergans, Xandarellids, Cheloniellids, Aglaspidids, and Xenopods, along with several related creatures, with one Soul Core in the front center having the image of the largest Trilobite known as Isotelus rex. "Artiopods." Kabuto said. He then opened the eleventh chest, which was filled with Soul Cores decorated with the images of various Synapsids, which consisted of extinct creatures related to mammals, specifically Gorgonopsids, Cynodonts, Docodonts, Caseids, Sphenacodonts, Edaphosaurs, Therocephalians, etc., with one Soul Core in the center front having the image of a Dimetrodon. "Synapsids." Kabuto said. He then opened the twelfth chest, which was filled with Soul Cores decorated with the images of various Chelicerates, consisting of arthropods closely related to Arachnids, specifically Sea Spiders, Horseshoe Crabs, Eurypterids a.k.a. Sea Scorpions, and Chasmataspidids, with one Soul Core in the center front having the image of a Jaekelopterus. "Chelicerates." Kabuto said. He then opened the thirteenth chest, which was filled with Soul Cores decorated with the images of various Lobopods, marine soft-bodied worm-like creatures with stubby legs, with one Soul Core in the center front having the image of a Aysheaia.

"Lobopods." Kabuto said. He then opened the fourteeth chest, which was filled with Soul Cores decorated with the images of various types of Onychophorans, better known as Velvet Worms, both current ones and extinct ones, with one Soul Core in the center front having the image of a Cretoperipatus burmiticus, an extinct Onychophoran from the Late Cretaceous Period. "Onychophorans." Kabuto said. He then opened the 15th chest, which was filled with Soul Cores decorated with the images of various different species of Tardigrades, with one Soul Core in the center front having the image of a Paradoryphoribius chronocaribbeus, which is an extinct Tardigrade species from the Miocene Period. "Tardigrades." Kabuto said. He then opened the 16th and final chest, which was filled with Soul Cores decorated with the images of various different species of Sponges, with one Soul Core in the center front having the image of a Giant Barrel Sponge. "And Sponges." Kabuto said. "They're all here! This is just too perfect!" Kabuto said.

Back With The Heroes...'

"Okay, so, in all seriousness, what kind of spider are you exactly, especially since you have the Royal Guard's symbol on your left shoulder?" Sakura asked Pinaviztla. "Isn't it obvious? I, Pinaviztla, am not based on a real spider, but a mythical one called a Pinaviztli!" Pinaviztla said. "A what now?" Clyde asked in confusion. "A Spider like being the size of a mouse from Aztec folklore said to be an insect of ill omen." Lisa said over the comm link. "Uh, don't you mean Arachnid?" Aurachnid corrected in annoyance. "You get what I mean." Lisa said. "Besides, other depictions of the Pinaviztli describe it as being some type of Beetle!" She added. Aurachnid grumbled at that. "Anyway, the entrance of a Pinaviztli into a house is considered a bad omen, usually illness or some other sort of evil in the household, including death! Fortunately, it can be countered in one of two different types of rituals! The first ritual is to draw a cross on the floor representing a compass pointing to the four cardinal directions! Then, the pinaviztli is placed in the middle, spat on, and asked by an individual "Why did you come? I want to know, why did you come?". If it goes north, it is a sign of coming death, while any other direction heralds a lesser affliction! Afterwards, the Pinao is told "Go your way, I don't care about you", and then dropped off at the nearest crossroads! The second ritual consists of passing a hair through the Pinaviztli's body and tying it to a stick, leaving it dangling for a day! If it is gone by the next day, then harm is sure to befall the household! However, if it is still there, the people spit on it and are then reassured that nothing will happen to them! On a lighter note, sometimes a Pinaviztli foretells the gift of good food!" Lisa explained.

"Somehow I doubt that's what this one is here for." Cayenne grumbled. As he said that, a random anvil suddenly fell from the sky and hit his back. "Ow." He said. "Don't worry, Cayenne, I've got your back!" Carlota said, using her powers to pull the Ill Fortune Venom out of the wound left on Cayenne by Pinaviztla. "Thankfully it's still Venom, which I can control!" Carlota said. "Mind if I help?" Cianán asked. "My luck powers should counter this." He said. "Thanks, but I've got this!" Carlota said before tossing the ball of Ill Fortune Venom right at Pinaviztla. However, while the ball exploded, Pinaviztla came out of it unscathed, much to Carlota's confusion. "You fool! I'm immune to my own Ill Fortune Venom!" Pinaviztla said, laughing. "What about other kinds of Venom?" Aurachnid asked before sinking his fangs into Pinaviztla's body. Unfortunately, he ended up hurting himself as his fangs couldn't even pierce through Pinaviztla's exoskeleton. "OW!" Aurachnid yelped in pain.

"Dang it." Clyde said, shooting webbing to bring Aurachnid back to him. "You're going to have to try harder than that!" Pinavitzla called. "Well, let's see you handle this, Mecha Pollon!" Lincoln called as the robot dog flew in before transforming into the Trinity Buster that Lincoln, Sakura, and Clyde caught and aimed at Pinaviztla, Black Widow, and Aranea. "Sealing Blast!" Lincoln called, pulling the trigger. Unfortunately, the three Spider-themed villains were all agile enough to dodge the beam before it could even hit them, though in Pinaviztla's case, she surprisingly unfurled the back part of her abdomen to reveal a pair of beetle wings that she used to fly out of the way. "Oh, that is so not fair! Spiders don't even have wings!" Aurachnid complained. "Well, I guess my little secret is out! I'm actually part-beetle!" Pinaviztla said. "Great." Aurachnid said sarcastically.

"So, what about those two, since they're Zodiarts with two different Spider species for motifs?" Lincoln asked in confusion. "From the looks of it, they're based off the constellations Black Widow and Aranea." Lisa noted. "The latter is an obsolete constellation modeled after the Northern Yellow Sac Spider a.k.a. Long-Legged Sac Spider, while the former is a Gamma-Ray Constellation obviously modeled after a female Black Widow Spider!" She added. "A Gamma Ray Constellation? Great, just what we need!" Lincoln said in annoyance while Daisuke pulled out the Drake Glip. "I think I can shoot them down, just get them together, and I can handle it." The Dragonfly motif Kamen Rider said. "Easier said than done! They're so agile that not even the Trinity Buster can hit them!" Aurachnid said. "Then, it's about time that I add my Luck powers into this situation!" Cianán said. "And for good measure, Soul Korin, ShishiRed!" AkaRed called, taking on the form of the Leo motif Kyuranger.

"Like that would ever work!" Aranea said as she then shot out silk and then built a tent to around her body to protect herself. "As for me, here's my special attack, Pulsar Venom!" Black Widow said as she then then gathered venom from her fangs that she coated onto her claws that turned into pure Pulsar Energy before firing said energy as beams towards the heroes. AkaRed placed a Kyutama in the Seiza Blaster.

Tate (Scutum) Kyutama! Seiza Attack!

This summoned a large energy shield around the heroes that caused the Pulsar Energy to bounce off and hit the two Zodiarts, Aranea, right through her webbing, and Animarius, causing them to crash onto the ground together. "Hey! Get off of me!" Pinaviztla complained. "I don't think so! Rider Shooting!" Daisuke said, triggering his finisher.

Rider Shooting!

"And to add a little bit of my Luck powers!" Cianán said as he transferred some of his Luck powers over into Daisuke's weapon as it was charging. Before Daisuke pulled the trigger, firing an Indigo colored energy beam that hit all three Spider themed villains, obliterating them, leaving behind a Soul Core with the image of a Pinavitzli and two Zodiarts switches, specifically one regular Zodiarts Switch and one Gamma-Ray Zodiarts Switch. Once the smoke cleared up, Aranea was revealed to be a young blonde-haired woman in her 20's while Black Widow was revealed to be a woman in her 30's with long black hair with a great red hourglass-shaped stripe in the middle, with both women wearing the typical white Foundation X business suits with matching skirts and high heels. "Thank you!" AkaRed said, using a blank Neo Kyutama on Black Widow's Switch, giving the Neo Kyutama the jet black image of a female Black Widow Spider on it, and deactivating Aranea's. "Ryu-sempai, Ryusei-sempai, either of you have anything on these two?" Sakura asked Accel and Meteor, pointing to the defeated Zodiarts. "The blonde-haired woman I recognize! That's Charlotte Ava Mildeia, also known as the Spider-Ransomer!" Ryusei said while pointing at the blonde-haired woman formally known as Aranea. "Spider-Ransomer? Why's she called that?" Sakura asked in confusion.

"Because she kidnaps children of wealthy people for ransom, leaving behind jars with live Long-Legged Sac Spiders along with ransom letters as her calling card." Ryusei explained. "What about the other one?" Sakura asked. "I recognize her as Arachne Noriko, a serial Black Widow." Ryu said. "But she's a human, not a Black Widow Spider!" Manny pointed out. "Not that kind of Black Widow!" Ryu said. "Named after the female of the species' habit of devouring males after mating, the term 'Black Widow' refers to a type of female criminal that goes after men with hopes of marriage, then later kills them." He explained. "In her case, she marries wealthy men, only to later kill them for their inheritance money, and then changing her identity to hide from the police before moving to her next victim!" Ryu explained. "Needless to say, these two are going away for a long time!" Ryusei said as Charlotte and Noriko reached inside their jackets for their syringes...only to discover that the reflected Pulsar Venom somehow caused both items to be broken!

"Are you freaking kidding me?!" Charlotte and Noriko asked in annoyance. "Sorry, ladies, but this time, the spider has been caught." Ryusei said as he and Ryu placed handcuffs on them before Shintomaru opened up two Aurora Curtains allowing the two veteran riders to toss them in. They then wrote down two different letters explaining everything before tossing them into the two Aurora Curtains. Lincoln then picked up Pinaviztla's Soul Core before sealing it into his driver. "Looks like it's back to the usual one-on-one, Clyde!" Shibogumon said before laughing maniacally. "Bring it on, you murderer!" Clyde said angrily before he and Shibogumon charged towards each other.

Meanwhile...

Soji and Arata were up against Moroha, who presented his scythe and Zecter to the two ZECT Riders. "So this is why you broke into ZECT HQ, huh?" Arata asked. "That's right! After seeing my fellow Shadow Angel Futaba having already become a Dark Rider himself, I decided I want to join in on action, and Cicadeath and Flygor suggested your organization to steal from to give me my new Rider form!" Moroha said. "Speaking of which, Henshin!" Moroha announced as he then had the mechanical Cat-Eye Mantis attach itself to the head just behind the blade.

Henshin!

He then transformed into his Masked Form. "Cast Off!" Moroha declared.

Cast Off! Change, Mantis!

Transforming into his Rider form. "Kamen Rider Chaeta!" Moroha introduced. That made both Soji and Arata shocked and angered. "That Zecter was illegally made with data and technology stolen from ZECT HQ!" Arata said angrily. "Oh yeah? Well here's what I say about that, Clock Up!" Moroha said.

Clock Up!

Using the Clock Up feature's speed boost, Moroha struck the Beetle motif Kamen Riders repeatedly in the blink of an eye! That made them both fall flat on the floor, though the armor of their Masked Forms barely protected them from the damage. "We may need to pull out the big guns." Soji said, pulling out his Hyper Zecter as well as the Perfect Zecter. He then shouted "Cast Off!" while changing into his Rider Form.

Cast Off! Change, Beetle!

Before activating the Hyper Zecter. "Hyper Cast Off!" Soji called.

Hyper Cast Off! Change, Hyper Beetle!

Entering his Final Form, Hyper Kabuto. "Better follow suit, then! Cast Off!" Arata shouted as he changed into his Rider Form.

Cast Off! Change, Stag Beetle!

Before pulling out and activating his own Hyper Zecter. "Hyper Cast Off!" Arata called.

Hyper Cast Off! Change, Hyper Stag Beetle!

Entering his Final Form, Hyper Gatack. "Bring it on, humans!" Moroha declared. Soji and Arata then activated their Hyper Clock Up forms.

Hyper Clock Up!

Before the three insect themed riders charged.

Meanwhile...

Ronnie Anne, Panopticon, Alraunellie, Ryuga, Kasumi, Gentoku, Seventh Samurai, Toshiro a.k.a. Cyber Sumo, the Iron Pinata, and Albino Burrito were up against Hogarito, Cipactlon, Atotolino, the Cactus Kid, Rosa, Robur Carolinium, Hippocampus, Eridanus, Jordanus, and Trigris. "Eat Cactus!" The Cactus kid said, firing cactus shaped missiles. Rosa followed suit by launching razor-sharp rose petals while Robur Carolinium shot out acorn-shaped bombs. Fortunately, Ronnie Anne was able to use her wind powers to redirect the bombs, missiles, and rose petals at the villains' feet, leaving them no time to react as the items exploded, causing them to yelp in pain. "You're gonna pay for that! Cactus Control!" The Cactus Kid said as he summoned an army of Cactus Monsters to the battlefield. "I say we turn up the heat!" Ryuga said, pulling out the Magma Fullbottle and Knuckle. He then placed the Magma Fullbottle into the Cross-Z Magma Knuckle.

Bottle Burn!

Ryuga then placed the Cross-Z Magma Knuckle into his driver.

Cross-Z Magma!

Ryuga then cranked the lever on his driver, causing a large smelting pot resembling a giant-sized version of the Cross-Z Magma Knuckle to appear from the ground.

Are You Ready?!

"Henshin!" Ryuga announced as the smelting pot tipped over and poured out hot molten liquid metal over him. However, instead of killing Ryuga, the molten metal coated over him while forming eight large serpentine Japanese Dragon heads in front of him which harden to solid rock as they rise. Then, the giant smelting pot when forwards and breaks the hardened construct, revealing Ryuga's Cross-Z Magma form.

Gokunetsu Kinniku (Extremely Hot Muscle)! Cross-Z Magma! Achachachachachacha Acha!

Kazumi and Gentoku then pulled out their own upgrade items, specifically the Grease Perfect Kingdom with Grease Fullbottle, the of which Kazumi placed into the former, and Prime Rogue Fullbottle.

Welcome!

They then switched out their Sclash Drivers with their own Build Drivers before placing their respective upgrade items into them.

Ichi Danketsu (One-Stop Shop For All)! Grease Perfect!
Prime Rogue!

They then turned the levers on their Build Drivers, in Kazumi's case he summoned three energy manifestations of the Smash forms of Kazumi's friends the Hokuto Sanbagarasu.

Are You Ready?

"Henshin!" Kazumi announced as they transformed into their upgraded forms of Grease Perfect and Prime Rogue respectively.

Farmers Festival! Grease Perfect! Gakin! Gokin! Gakon! Docking!
Taigi Bansei (Late-Blooming Justice)! Prime Rogue! Doryadoryadoryadoryadoryadorya Doryaa!

"What's with that form, Kazumi-sempai?" Sakura asked in confusion. "It's relatively new." Kazumi started explaining. "It's a long story, but, basically, it involved a substance called Phantom Liquid, which turned out to be a condensed form of Nebula Gas that was created when the World of Build merged with the main Kamen Rider/Super Sentai/Metal Hero universe, which allowed me and my three friends Akaba, Aoba, and Kiba a.k.a. the Hokuto Sanbagarasu or Three Crows to regain our ability to transform into a Kamen Rider and Smash respectively when we were exposed to the stuff while bathing in a hot spring on an unknown island! Then, there was this terrorist organization called Down Fall, which was aiming to kill us Kamen Riders and rule the world with soldiers using the Phantom Liquid to become Phantom Crushers! My friends and I tried to fight them, but, the trio were defeated and hospitalized by Down Fall's leader Uraga Keiji a.k.a. Kamen Rider Metal Build! So, the Hokuto Sanbagarasu willingly subjected themselves to a painful, potentially lethal procedure that will allow Sento to extract the Phantom Liquid in their bodies in order to restore the powers of the Kamen Riders who were neutralized by the Phantom Crushers and complete the upgrade device known as Grease Perfect Kingdom, which allowed me to me to become Kamen Rider Grease Perfect Kingdom to defeat Metal Build in all my rage and determination under the belief that my friends have died from procedure! However, when my three friends turned out to have actually been alive the whole time, it turned out that Sento had lied and tricked me into thinking they had died, believing that my anger would raise my Hazard Level up enough to put an end to Down Fall!" Kazumi explained before glaring at Sento at the last part.

"Well, it worked, didn't it? Lisa-chan, you can understand what I'm saying as a fellow genius, can't you?" Sento asked Lisa over the comm link. "While I do like to deceive my siblings every now and then when it comes to my experiments, tricking someone into thinking that their friends are dead, just to make them angry, is something that even I don't approve of!" Lisa said sternly, much to Sento's chagrin. "Et tu, Lisa-chan?" Sento asked in disappointment. "Et tu, Lisa-chan?" Sento asked in disappointment. "Either way, we need to get rid of these guys, MaxLucha Power!" Ronnie Anne said, entering her secondary mode. She then shot out a sphere made of lightning, wind, and rain straight at the villains. However, Cipactlon went and intercepted it by literally devouring it with his many mouths without any ill effect, much to everyone's shock and confusion.

"Just what are you?" Ronnie Anne asked in shock and disgust. "I'm known as Cipactlon, the Mighty Devourer! I'm based on the Aztec Primordial Sea Beast Cipactli!" Cipactlon answered. "Cipactli?" Ronnie Anne asked in confusion. "A primeval sea monster from Aztec mythos, that's part crocodilian, fish, and either toad or Frog depending on the translation." Lisa explained over the commlink. "He definitely looks the part." Alraunellie said. "Not only that, but Cipactli is described as having an extra mouth on each joint of its limbs!" Lisa explained. "I know this is saying something coming from me of all people, but that's disturbing." Panopticon said as everyone saw there was indeed multiple mouths on Cipactlon's body. That made Lola turn green at that. "I'm going to be sick." She said.

"You think that's bad? Apparently, Cipactlon, like the Promordial Sea Beast he's modeled after, is known for having a very big appetite, since he can anything, from organic materials like meat and plants to inorganic materials like rocks and metals, and, yes, he can even devour elemental attacks to not only strengthen himself, but also augment them to his own body, making him gain said elemental powers and also become immune to said attacks!" Buendejo informed. "Oh crud." Ronnie Anne said in realization as Cipaction fired a bolt of lightning at them, only for them to narrowly dodge it. "Any weaknesses?" Gentoku asked. "Well, according to the legend, the Cipactli was slain by the four Aztec Gods Huitzilopochtli, Tezcatlipoca, Xipe Totec, and Quetzalcoatl." Lisa started explaining. "How, exactly?" Ryuga asked. "Well, Texcatlipoca went and sacrificed one of his feet to use it as bait to lure Cipactli close enough for all four of the Aztec Gods to defeat and kill it. They then pulled Cipactli's body apart in four directions and freed the universe from its body. Then Tezcatlipoca and Quetzalcoatl created the heavens and the Earth and everything therein from Cipactli's body while the creature's head became the thirteen heavens, its tail the underworld, its midsection the Earth, and so on and so forth." Lisa explained. "Well unfortunately, I don't think any of us are willing to sacrifice our feet, and the only gods I know are in our world and in the other world!" Ronnie Anne said in annoyance.

That made everyone groan in frustration. "Does anyone have a plan B?" Kazumi asked. "What about my Poison Pollen?" Alraunellie asked. "If you can get close to him, maybe." Ronnie Anne said. Cipactlon then looked at Alraunellie with with the intent to eat her. "You look like a humanoid version of a Mandrake plant! I haven't eaten those in a long time!" Cipactlon said. "Keep your disturbing hands off Desco's girlfriend, you punk!" Desco said angrily. "I don't know what you are, but I'm so hungry that I don't care, so I'll just eat you both!" Cipactlon declared before charging towards Desco and Alraunellie with his jaws open. Only for Alraunellie to shoot some of her pollen right in his face. He then started coughing and gagging at the stuff. "What did you just sprayed at me, plant girl?!" Cipactlon asked angrily. "Her name is Alraunellie!" Desco said angrily. "Whatever!" Cipactlon said indifferently. Before groaning in pain. "I'm not feeling too good!" He complained.

"Oh, yeah, that stuff I've sprayed on you is my Poison Pollen! Very effective!" Alraunellie said as Cipactlon turned purple while belching out purple bubbles from his mouths. He then threw up with all of them, much to everyone's disgust. "Quick, take this chance!" Alraunellie said. "Got it!" Gentoku said as he initiated his finisher.

Ready, Go! Prime Scrap Break!

That's when Gentoku charged towards Cipactlon with his legs forwards while generating a large purple crocodile head-like projection with gold energy mixed into it that crushed Cipactlon several times before launching him away, right before the damage caused the Cipactli Animarius to explode and revert back into a Soul Core with the image of Cipactli on it. He then picked it up and tossed it to Lincoln. "Dang, that's disturbing!" Lincoln noted before sealing Cipactlon's Soul Core into his driver. "Okay, who else wants some?" Ronnie Anne asked. "How about me?" Atotolino said be he then let out a loud bird song that unleashed very strong winds at the heroes, which also caused them to feel like gravity had increased around them and caused literal pain in their hearts. "Lisa?" Ronnie Anne asked. "Oh, dear! Apparently, that one appears to be based on an Atotolin!" Lisa said in worry. "A what now?" Ronnie Anne asked while clutching the left side of her chest in pain. "Another creature of Aztec myth." Lisa started explaining.

"It is known as the bird king of Aztec culture, also called a water hen, not to be confused real Water Hens, need I mind you! Its appearance was described as having a large reddish eagle-like head with a feathery crest, a long slender purplish body, a yellow beak, a green goose-like neck, and two short limbs with human-like hands instead of legs! The hunting of this bird was very important and also very difficult, as the hunters have to catch and kill it within a span of three days, for if on the fourth day they could not even reach it, it would launch a song with strong winds that would sink canoes and either stop the heart of the hunters, literally speaking, or just drown them!" She added. "That explains a lot!" Ryuga said in pain. "Yeah! *Gasp!* I'm feeling like I'm having a heart attack here!" Kasumi complained in pain. Fortunately, the pain didn't last long as Atotolino was hit with a sound bullet courtesy of Sid in her MaxLucha Mode, forcing his attack to come to an end, much to everyone's relief. "No one hurts my girlfriend like that!" Sid said angrily.

Atotolino then regained his senses and glared at Sid angrily. "You'll pay for that!" Atotolino angrily declared as he then quickly charged towards Sid before brutally beating her up to a bloody pulp with various martial arts with the human-like hands on his arms and legs. "Sid!" Ronnie Anne said in fright before Ryuga triggered his finisher.

Ready Go! Volcanic Finish!

That's when Ryuga performed a rapid series of flaming punches before becoming covered in lava and delivering a final punch strong enough to launch Atotolino away and cause him to explode. However, instead of a Soul Core, the explosion revealed a straw dummy with a note on it that says 'Fooled Ya!', right before the real Atotolino appeared behind Ryuga and kicked him at his back. "I can see why the Aztec Hunters would have such a hard time against these things!" Ryuga said in annoyance. "Question, Lisa, what exactly happens if the Aztec Hunters actually do succeed in hunting the Atotolin before the three days are up?" Ronnie Anne asked. "Well, if they were able to hunt it, at the moment of opening the stomach of the Atotolin, one could know the fate of the hunters, specifically if they found a piece of coal, it was said that the hunters would have an early death while if they found a precious stone, it would foretell them a good future!" Lisa explained through the comm link.

"That's kinda ironic, since when I witnessed the first El Tigre managing to punch a hole through Atotolino's stomach before reducing him to a Soul Core, he ended up getting out a piece of coal from him!" Buendejo said. Before shuddering at the memory. "A piece of coal? So, that's why the original El Tigre died a few years after he had sired his son Dark Leopard! That piece of coal must have doomed him to die an early death!" Jorge realized in shock. "Does everyone on your Dad's side of the family have Cat themed alter egos?" Lincoln asked Manny. "Pretty much." Manny said. "The original El Tigre's son Dark Leopard is the first Rivera supervillain, since he betrayed his Aztec people to the Conquistadors with his Stone Mech-Suit and married a Spanish woman, which resulted in him fathering the first Rivera superhero Golden Leon, who opposed the conquistadores and sought to protect his village, which was what Miracle City is in past times, from danger! Golden Leon would later get married and go on to father the second Rivera supervillain the Mighty Cheetar, who was known Scourge of the Seven Seas due to his numerous and infamous acts of piracy that he carried out during his life and almost ruled the world with just his personal steam-powered Mech-Suit! But then, the Mighty Cheetar would later get married himself and father the second Rivera superhero, my Great Grandpapi Justice Jaguar, who was apparently a horseback-riding Sheriff during the Wild West times!" Manny explained.

"It's a vicious and never ending cycle of good and evil." Jorge said. "At least until we got Manny here, who's as undecided as the original El Tigre was, though not to the point of going insane, thank goodness!" Rodolfo said. "Although Lisa-chan does have an interesting theory about both the original El Tigre and Manny-kun, mainly that the original El Tigre had some sort of mental disorder that caused him to have split personalities-" Sakura started saying. "Dissociative Identity Disorder." Lisa corrected. "Right, and Manny-kun maybe Autistic. (Confirmed By Jorge R. Guitierrez Himself)" Sakura said. "Por Que?!" Jorge and Rodolfo asked in shock at the last part. "Yeah, I was just as shocked about that as well!" Manny said. "Well either way, we need to figure out a way to take care of this punk!" Ronnie Anne said. "Well, I think it's clear that Atotolino is an Animari Ninpo Master!" Toadus noted. "Animari Ninpo?" Manny asked in confusion. "A form of Ninjitsu created by the Animarius, of which I am also a user." Gorf said, unsheathing his Katana.

"Though in Atotolino's case, he's a master of hand-to-hand combat, since he rarely ever uses weapons unless the situation calls for it!" He added. "Mind if I fight this guy alongside you, Gorf?" Manny asked. "Sure." Gorf said. "I'll fight too!" Shintomaru said. "Not like it will make any difference!" Atotolino declared. He then charged towards the three heroes. Shintomaru then loaded some cards into the Decadriver MK III.

Kamen Ride, Kuuga! Form Ride, Rising Pegasus!

Taking on Kuuga's upgraded Green Bodied form, Shintomaru pulled out the Rising Pegasus Bowgun and opened fire on Atotolino. That caused Atotolino to screech in pain and stop in his tracks. "You'll pay for that! Animari Ninpo! Kaze no yo ni satte itta! (Gone Like The Wind!)" Atotolino called, disappearing. "Where did he go?" Manny asked in shock. "Kaze no yo ni satte itta, it's a Ninpo technique used by Avian Ninjas that allows them to become like the wind, ie invisible!" Gorf explained. "We may not be able to see him, but..." Shintomaru said, placing his hand to the side of his helmet. "...thanks to the enhanced hearing Kuuga gets in this form, we can hear him, Manny-kun, to your right!" Shintomaru said. Manny then responded by turning to his right. And firing off his chain fist. That allowed him to not only hit Atotolino, causing the Atotolin Animarius to become visible again, but also punch a hole through his stomach. "Not again!" Atotolino complained as Manny recalled his soon as he opened up his hand, Manny saw, much to his shock and awe, a glowing Mexican Fire Opal.

"At least it's not a piece of coal." Shintomaru noted. "What kind of gemstone is this?" Manny asked in confusion. "It looks like a Mexican Fire Opal." Lisa said over the comm link. "'True to its name, this gemstone was borne from fire! Formed in the depths of ancient volcanoes, Fire Opals are created when water seeps into silica-rich lava, filling its seams and hollows! Under this incredible heat and pressure, the lava traps water within itself, forming these magical, sun-bright droplets! The Mexican Fire Opal was prized by Mayan and Aztec peoples, who called it "Quetzalitzlipyollitli" or, "the stone of the bird of paradise"! In fact, Fire Opals hav long been regarded as giving its wearers confidence, energy, and joy!" Lisa explained. "Cool." Manny said as Shintomaru loaded a card into his Driver.

Final Attack Ride, Kuuga!

"Animari Ninpo, Otamajakushi Bakudan!" Gorf called. "That's another one down!" Shintomaru said as he picked up Atotolino's Soul Core and tossed over to Lincoln. Who quickly sealed it. "You okay, my love?" Ronnie Anne asked Sid as Sakura healed her with the Haato no Hikari. "I am now!" Sid said as she was healed. "How is it that I can heal easily, but am still struggling with summoning the Diamond of Light?" Sakura muttered. "Healing is the most basic ability for the Haato no Hikari, it doesn't take much experience to use it." Naturia said. That made Sakura sulk a little bit. "Don't worry, Sakura, I'm sure you'll get it, and when you do, it will be Cerberion shaking in fear when he hears your name!" Lincoln assured his girlfriend. "Arigato, Lincoln-kun!" Sakura said. "So... Since I'm holding a gemstone instead of a piece of coal like the original El Tigre, does that mean that I won't die an early death like he did?" Manny asked. "Correct! In fact, obtaining a gemstone from an Atotolin's stomach actually foretells a good future for the hunter!" Lisa answered through the comm link. "The details of the good future, the legends are vague about, however." She added, looking through a book on Aztec mythology.

"Eh, I guess I can figure that out for myself later on! Besides, a good future has to mean something good!" Manny noted with a shrug. "Eh, fair point." Lisa said. "Who's next?" Gentoku asked. "That would be me!" Rosa said. "And me!" Robur Carolinium said. "And me!" The Cactus Kid said as he and the Cactus Monsters approached the heroes. "The constellations Rosa and Robur Carolinium." Lisa noted. "The former based on a Rose and the latter based on Charles' Oak, which refers to the Royal Oak where Charles II was said to have hidden from the troops of Oliver Cromwell after the Battle of Worcester! Of course, what both plant-themed constellations have in common is that they're both obsolete constellations!" She added. "At least they aren't Gamma." Ronnie Anne noted. "Don't forget about us!" Hippocampus said, with Eridanus, Jordanus, and Tigris behind him. "Hippocampus, Eridanus, Jordanus, and Tigris." Lisa noted.

"The first one is an obsolete constellation based on a Seahorse, not to be confused with the half-horse/half-fish creature of the same name from Greek Myth! As for the other three, Eridanus is a modern constellation based on the Eridanus River, a mythical river from Greek Legend, while Jordanus and Tigris are both obsolete constellations based on the real life Jordan River and Tigris River, respectively!" Lisa explained. "And, No, despite the name, the Tigris River has nothing to do with actual Tigers!" She added. "Try telling him that, since he's already got the face of a Tiger!" Sid said, pointing at Tigris, who's already got the face of a Tiger. "Wait, if they're river based constellations, wouldn't that mean..." Ronnie Anne started saying as the three river constellation based Zodiarts fired water at the heroes. That caused the heroes to get drenched in a combined stream of water, which prompted Hippocampus, who was quickly joined up by Stingrayus and Tetrovolta, to dive into the stream and start attacking the heroes underwater. Specifically, Hippocampus attacked with explosive bubbles, Stingrayus with his venomous barb, which he managed to sting Panopticon with, and Tetrovolta with her bioelectricity. However, Ronnie Anne quickly used her own water based powers to turn the stream and enemies right back at the three River constellation Zodiarts! "Hey! Get off of us, you flopping fish!" Eridanus complained as Hippocampus, Stingrayus, and Tetrovolta flopped around like literal fish out of water.

Ronnie Anne then slammed her hand into the wet ground, sending lightning jumping towards the enemies. "YEEEEEEEOOOOOWWW!" Stingrayus yelled in pain. "Don't worry, my love, I got you and everyone else!" Tetrovolta said as she literally absorbed all of the lightning off of the other villains and into herself, giving herself a power up. "Just our luck, a Tetronarce Californica, layman's terms Pacific Electric Ray, Animarius." Lisa noted. "Oh, great, I nearly forgot about Tetrovolta and her lover Stingrayus, the Bullseye Round Stingray Animarius!" Gorf said with a facepalm. "Bullseye what now?" Sid asked. "Urobatis Concentricus, the Bullseye Round Stingray, also known as Reticulated Round or Spot on Spot Round Ray." Lisa started explaining. "It's easily identified by the whitish spots or patches around the pectoral fins and dorsum!" She added. "Um, guys, I don't feel so good!" Panopticon said as he knelt down pain from the injury that Stingrayus had inflicted on him earlier. "Lisa?" Ronnie Anne asked in concern.

"Oh dear! It appears that Panopticon has been stung by Stingrayus's venomous barb!" Lisa said in worry. That caused the two Stingray Animarius to start laughing before Carlota growled angrily and used her powers to pull the venom out of Panopticon's Body. "Severely injure my boyfriend, will ya?!" Carlota asked angrily as she formed Stingrayus's venom into a ball. "Wait, boyfriend? That multi-eyed demon is your boyfriend?" Stingrayus asked in confusion. "Oh, like you and your girlfriend are ones to talk!" Carlota fired back. "Hey, we're both based different species of Rays, so our romantic relationship is more appropriate than yours!" Tetrovolta retorted. "Yeah, seriously, that fact that you're in love with a guy that's literally covered in eyes is just disturbing!" Stingrayus said, making Carlota growl angrily. "Yeah, you won't find an Animarius falling in love with someone that's from another planet!" Tetrovolta said. "Shows what you know! General Leo's own children, who are on our side, are dating humans themselves!" Carlota fired back.

"They're doing WHAT?!" Stingrayus and Tetrovolta asked in shock and anger. "Tell me about it." General Leo said in annoyance. "Anyway, because you hurt the love of my life and made fun of me for being in love with him, you'll both pay!" Carlota declared as she then threw the ball of stingray venom at Stingrayus and Tetrovolta. However, Tetrovolta blasted the venom ball into pieces with her powered-up bioelectricity. "You're going to have to try harder than that, human!" Tetrovolta declared. "How about I take you on, then?" Sid declared before unleashing her Sonic Screech, which really hurt the ears of Stingrayus, Tetrovolta, Hippocampus, Eridanus, Jordanus, and Tigris. "Ow! Why you little-" Hippocampus called, trying to charge forward, only for Ryusei to call out. "Meteor Storm Punisher!" As the Meteor Storm top dashed in and struck the four Zodiarts, causing them to explode, leaving behind their switches as the top returned to Ryusei in his Meteor Storm form.

That's when the smoke cleared and revealed the four Zodiarts to be three men (Hippocampus, Jordanus, and Tigris) and one woman (Eridanus). "Anything on these guys?" Carlota asked as Ryu and Ryusei deactivated the switches. "The one who was Hippocampus is Annop Pasu, a criminal from Thailand who's apparently the ringleader of an illegal seahorse trading ring!" Ryusei said while pointing at the Thai man formerly known as Hippocampus. "Illegal seahorse trading?" Is that an actual thing?" Leni asked in confusion. "In this line of work, you see some strange things, trust me." Ryusei said. "No argument there." Ryu said. "Besides, while the United States has laws regarding catching wild seahorses as pets that varies from state to state, the extraction and trade of seahorses is still being continued illegally, despite trade bans in a number of countries including the Philippines, Thailand, Indonesia, India, Malaysia and Vietnam!" Lisa said through the comm link.

"It's pretty crazy, but animals and animal parts are amongst the largest Black Market trades." She added. "In the case of seahorses, they're often used as either food or traditional Chinese medicine, the latter of which I find to be a bunch of hogwash!" Lisa said, though the mention of that made Lana very angry. Before walking up to Annop who was starting to regain consciousness, only to be met with Lana's fist as she punched him, leaving a black eye. "OW! What the heck was that for, little girl?" Annop asked in pain and confusion. "She's an animal lover, seriously, she once went to some pretty crazy lengths to protect the home of some fish from developers, and didn't like the implications of what your little group does to Seahorses." Lincoln explained as Ryusei approached Annop with a set of handcuffs. "Annop Pasu, you're under arrest!" Ryusei declared as he slapped the handcuffs onto Annop before he could even reach his syringe.

"Hi Tay thexa! (Damn it in Thai)" Annop muttered. "What about them?" Ronnie Anne asked. "Those three are Shimizu Hideka, Furukawa Itsuki, and Agawa Daishi, collectively known as the River Gang, who are known for sabotaging dams and intentionally causing floods in populated areas, both in areas of Japan and the rest of the world, just so that would loot the flooded places later on!" Ryu said while pointing at Hideka Shimizu (the curvaceous Japanese woman formally known as Eridanus), Itsuki Furukawa (the thin Japanese man formally known as Jordanus), and Daishi Agawa (the fat Japanese man formally known as Tigris). "Yeesh, is everyone in this Foundation X thing wanted by the police and Interpol?" Emiliano asked. "We don't know, officially, neither the Foundation nor it's members exist." Ryusei said. "Though, I'm guessing that the criminals either joined Foundation X to avoid getting caught by law enforcement or it's possible that they were specifically recruited by the organization for their special talents!" Ryu guessed.

"Either way, they're going away for a long time." He said. "Not on your life, Kekan (Policeman)!" Hideka declared as she, Itsuki, and Daishi pulled out their syringes. However, before the River Gang could use them, Toshiro went and knocked them down with his Cyber Sumo battlesuit before grabbing their syringes. "Don't you know that it's rude to use syringes filled with illegal drugs?" Toshiro angrily chastised. "Never thought I'd be glad to see the Mighty Politey in action." Frida joked. "Mighty Politey?" Ronnie Anne asked in confusion. "Just a little nickname I came up with him for how insufferably polite he is!" Frida whispered. "I Can Hear You, Frida Suarez! Don't Talk About Someone Behind Their Backs! It's Impolite!" Toshiro angrily yelled, making Frida jump in fright. "You see what I mean?" Frida asked as Aya looked at Toshiro's aura. "Oh, you have got to be kidding me! He wasn't originally this aggressive towards impoliteness, in fact he was a humble and kind sort of kid, until Manny and Frida came up with the idea of hiring a 'fake' supervillain to throw a fight with Toshiro in order to toughen him up like the Seventh Samurai had wanted, since he brought Toshiro to Miracle City in order to have him 'become his own man' due to his hometown of Shogun City being too safe on the account of all crime being perpetually cleaned up, of you know what mean, though Manny and Frida didn't realize that the guy they payed to fight Toshiro was a real supervillain who happens to be the leader of the Ninja Monster Clan, the Seventh Samurai's sworn enemies, who then ganged up on Toshiro with his minions, in spite of Manny trying to fight them off, not to mention that Toshiro had terrible control over his Cyber Sumo battlesuit back then! It wasn't until Frida accidentally blurted out about Manny hiring the Ninja Monster Clan that made Toshiro get really cheesed off to the point of single handlingly defeating the Ninja Monster Clan and sending them off onto a Jail Train out of Miracle City, though Toshiro was incredibly mad at Manny's betrayal and threatened to, in his own words, Sumo-Bliterate him if he betrayed him again!" Aya said incredulously before glaring at Manny.

"Yeah, you're not still mad about that, are you?" Manny asked Toshiro nervously. "Just be glad that I'm not willing to stoop as low as seeking revenge on you like a villain would!" Toshiro said sternly, making Manny chuckle nervously. "You really shouldn't have done that whole 'hiring a villain' thing, you know!" Carlota said. "Yeah, but Frida and I were getting desperate, especially since Toshiro's constantly politeness keeps ruining our funtime, not to mention that I was really getting sick and tired of having to bunk with Senor Chapi in his gross room while Toshiro gets to sleep in my room!" Manny said. "Who's Senor Chapi?" Sid asked in confusion. "My family's pet Green Parrot, who wears a black bowler hat, has only one leg, and doesn't talk much except for saying "Viva Pantalones!", not to mention that he poops a lot! Seriously, the room I had to sleep in during Toshiro's stay was a feather and bird poop-covered mess and I keep getting covered in the stuff every time I wake up for the past few days!" Manny complained. "EWWWWWWW!" Everyone exclaimed in disgust. "That makes my familia's pet parrot Sergio, not to be confused with your world's Sergio mind you, sound like a better pet in comparison!" Carlota said in disgust. Soon the criminals were sent through the Aurora Curtain before everyone turned their attention to the rest of that group.

"Well, you still got me and my friends here to deal with!" The Cactus Kid said as the Cactus Monsters charged towards the heroes. However, the Seventh Samurai simply stood his ground and then drew out his katana before slicing all of the Cactus Monsters into pieces, much to the Cactus Kid's chagrin. "Oh come on!" He complained. "I've got this! Deadly Thorn Whip!" Rosa shouted as she lashed her thorny whip at the heroes, only for Casey to come in and block it with his Metal Powers. Before turning his arm into a blade and using it to cut the whip in half. "Hey!" Rosa complained. "My turn! Root Rumble!" Robur Carolinium shouted as he stomped his feet, causing numerous tree roots to spring out from the floor and then wrap around Casey in a very tight grip, much to Jalissa's anger. Before using her own Nature powers to take control of the roots, making them let Casey go before wrapping around the two Zodiarts and Dopant and repeatedly slamming them into the ground!

"No! Body! Messes! With! My! Boy! Friend!" Jalissa angrily yelled with each slamming. Before tossing them into the wall, which Ryu decided to take advantage of.

Accel! Maximum Drive!

After charging up to a point when Ryu is engulfed in orange flames, he announced "Accel Glanzer!" before executing a jumping spinning heel kick that struck all three villains. Causing all three to explode, the Cactus Memory and GaiaRiser shattering and the two Zodiarts switches falling to Ryu's feet. He then picked up the switches and pressed the buttons before tossing them away as they vanished into thin air. "Now let's see who we have here." Ryu said. The smoke cleared to reveal a curvaceous red-haired Italian woman in her early 30's and a large muscular British man is his early 40's. "I don't recognize either of them, hey Meteor, Interpol have anything on these punks?" Ryu asked Ryusei. "We sure do, that's Rosalia Spina, alias the Red Rose Killer, an assassin who uses Red Roses as her calling cards by leaving them at the bodies of those she kills, and Carolinus Oakenshire, the ringleader of an illegal deforestation and wood cutting ring!" Ryusei said in disgust.

"Deforestation?! Wood Cutting?!" Jalissa and Conerrapingo asked angrily. "Those are amongst the things I hate the most! Back in Jamaica, Alvita, Candice, and I would protest against deforestation, especially when endangered and protected species were involved!" Jalissa explained. "And as the Alebrije of Nature, I just can't stand it on principle alone!" Conerrapingo said. Jalissa then angrily approached Carolinus, who was just waking up. Jalissa then coated her fist in some plant and punched Carolinus in the face. "For the record, that was Poison Ivy I coated my fist in." She said. "POISON IVY?!" Carolinus asked in horror before the skin on his face broke out into a bright red incredibly itchy rash. "Nice one, Jalissa!" Casey said.

"Thanks, my love!" Jalissa said. "You'd better hope they have some calamine lotion at Interpol." Ryusei told Carolinus. He then handcuffed Rosalia and Carolinus together before dropping them both off into an Aurora Curtain summoned by Shintomaru. "That should teach them!" Ryusei said. "Yeah! On a side note, at least the Ninja Monster Clan hasn't shown up in this battle on the account of them being in jail and all!" Manny noted. "That's what you think!" A sinister raspy voice called before multiple red puffs of smoke to reveal an army of four-armed humanoid red creatures with striped horns, devil tails, and metal clawed hands while wearing black Ninja uniforms with spiked shoulder pads that have skulls attached to the ends, with all of them wearing black veils over their faces, except for their leader, who had small black moustache and beard and gnarly teeth. "You just had to say it." Toshiro said.

"Hello?" Leo asked from the other end of the phone call. "Long story short, Leonardo, in another world, fighting various villains, including some evil ninjas." Lisa said. "Okay, then I guess we're on our way!" Leo replied before hanging up. Meanwhile, Seventh Samurai was fighting the Ninja Monster Clan. "This is where you meet your end, Samurai!" The lead Ninja declared. "I've defeated you all once before, and my son also defeated you all months ago, so I don't see how you all can defeat me now!" Seventh Samurai said. The lead Ninja Monster then chuckled wickedly before eyeing Stephano, who then tossed over to him a GaiaRiser and a black Gaia Memory with a symbol consisting of the capital letter 'N' that's made of a Shuriken with two katanas on opposite ends and directions while having the word 'Ninja' above said symbol. He then strapped the GaiaRiser to his waist and clicked the button on the memory.

Ninja!

Before inserting it into the GaiaRiser.

Ninja, GaiaRise!

That's when the lead Ninja Monster morphed into a jet-black-and-gunmetal-colored armored ninja-like humanoid with eight metallic horns, eight arms with clawed gauntlets and fingers, a eight-pronged crest on his helmet, which highly resembled the Shredder's helmet, a pair of shoulder plates covered with blades, a pair of leg armor with spikes and feet ending in Raptor-like claws, a large black jagged ninja scarf wrapped around his neck, and a huge eight-pointed Shuriken resting on his back. "Now then, prepare to-" The Ninja Dopant started saying, only for a familiar voice to call out "COWABUNGA!" Before the business end of a pair of nun chucks were slammed into the Dopants face, sending him crashing and skipping over the ground painfully hard. "Ow! Who Dares?!" The Ninja Dopant asked angrily. "Also, who in the world still says 'Cowabunga'?" He asked in confusion. That's when the Ninja Dopant and rest of the Ninja Monster Clan looked around in confusion. "Believe me, I'm just as annoyed about it as you!" Raph said as everyone looked up to see the TMNT in their Ultra Armors, weapons at the ready.

"You Turtles Again?!" King Draco asked angrily. "Great to see you again too, Drako." Leo said. "You know who these interlopers are?" Sartana asked King Draco in confusion. "All too well." King Draco said bitterly. "Leonardo-san-tachi, so good to see you again!" Sakura said. "Likewise, Lisa called us." Leo said. "Well, let me give you a quick catchup, the guy in Navy Spandex over there is Kairos Sideris, LuchaNavy, Fuka-chan's boyfriend, before you ask, he's short for his age, and rather sensitive about it, so try not to bring it up, he's also the reincarnation of the Heavenly Saint, an ally of the Magirangers, Chronogel, and the girl in the Celeste colored spandex is Frida Suarez, LuchaCeleste, she's actually from this world, but found a Lucha Stone that allowed her to bond with the Alebrije of Stars to become LuchaCeleste." Sakura started explaining. "Question, what kind of a color is Celeste?" Mikey asked in confusion. "It's a shade of Blue." Lisa said.

"Specifically, it's a variant of the color known as Sky Blue!" She added. "Oh, that makes sense!" Mikey noted. Mikey then took a close look at the people around him. "Wait, is this a world full of superheroes? AWESOME! Oh man, I just realized I left my Turtle Titan costume at home!" He said. That made his brothers groan in complaint. Frida chuckled. "I like that one, he's funny." She said. "See? She finds me funny!" Mikey said. "You're going to pay for that, you annoying Turtles!" The Ninja Dopant declared. "Ninja Monster Clan, Attack!" He ordered as the rest of the Ninja Monster Clan charged towards the Ninja Turtles. "Okay, not the strangest foes we've ever faced!" Donnie noted. "But compared to the Garbageman and that thing Stockman turned himself into (Speaking Of The Zombified Esque Baxter Stockman), I'd put them at a close third in terms of ugliest!" Mikey said.

"That, I can agree on, Mikey!" Raph said. "Especially the part about Stockman!" He said. "Yeah, he looked like a Frankenstein's Monster knock off!" Mikey said. The Turtles then shuddered at that memory. "Let's just take care of these guys for now!" Leo said. "Right! Let's Kick Shell!" Raph said as he and the other Ninja Turtles brandished their weapons before charging towards the Ninja Monster Clan.

Meanwhile...

Fuka, Kairos, Macros, Edge, Mambana, Toxobra, Mormyron, Gracilis, Toadus, Bufoam, Deltoad, and Stacey were up against Bufo, Lacerta, Weevile, Cochineala, Gilabite, Orbicula, Coralillo, the Coatl Brothers, both the Elder Trio of Ehecanado, Xiuhferno, and Maquizoom and the Younger Quartet of Mazantler, Chimalscale, Tlildro, and Xicalchurn, as well as their cousins Velachifo and Culebronk. "You are going to regret crossing us!" Lacerta declared. She then charged towards the heroes and whipped them with her tail. "Ow! I've heard of 'Whip It', but not that literally!" Fuka complained. "Don't worry, Fuka..." Kairos said, pulling out his Clock Hand Swords. "I can handle this punk." He said. "Please! What could a pipsqueak like you do to me?!" Lacerta said, laughing. "Pipsqueak? PIPSQUEAK?!" Kairos asked angrily. "Oh dear." Fuka said nervously. "What's the matter, boy? Did I struck a nerve?" Lacerta asked before laughing.

Wordlessly, Kairos ran the blade of one of his swords along the other, and in the blink of an eye, he was turned around as an explosion occurred, causing a Zodiarts switch to roll up to his feet. "Does that answer your question?" Kairos asked, deactivating the switch. That's when the smoke cleared to reveal a woman in her twenties with long hair that's died green. "Ah, damn it!" She complained, wasting no time in pulling out her syringe and quickly jabbing it in her chest, screaming in pain and starting to turn into stardust. "I don't think so!" Kairos said, joining his swords at their hilts, and forming their blades in the noon/midnight position, causing a needle thin blade to sprout from the smaller one's hilt. "Rooji Maneeji Magi Mamaruji!" Kairos chanted as the thin blade moved in a way that resembled the second hand of a clock going back as energy sprouted from the swords at the defeated Zodiarts, turning back the clock to just before she pulled out the syringe, making Secchan squeal in fright. "What's wrong, Secchan?" Stacy asked in confusion. "That was Chronogel's forbidden spell-tune!" Secchan said.

"Forbidden Spell?" Stacey asked in confusion. "Long story short, it's a time reversal spell that Chronogel found too to dangerous for anyone else to use, so he placed a curse on the spell to make so that only he can use it without any problems while anyone else who uses it would get stricken with a horrible side effect, specifically opening a chasm through their chest which would turn into a dark whirlwind that literally sucks in time and the whole world, with Chronogel's Staff of Forgiveness being the only cure for that curse-tune!" Secchan explained. "As MagiYellow found out the hard way-tune." Secchan added. "Seriously?!" Stacey asked in shock. "Yes, but since I am Chronogel reincarnated, and with the help of Tape's time powers, and these swords AkaRed crafted for me, I am able to channel my past life's time magic, including using the spell with no consequences." Kairos said. "And it's so cool that you can do that!" Fuka beamed.

"Though, I am quite appalled that you created such a curse on your own spell in the first place!" Tapemetrosuchus said. "Hey, I had to do something to make sure that my spell doesn't fall into the wrong hands and get misused for nefarious purposes!" Kairos defended. "But, Tsubasa had only used that spell of yours to prevent an evil plot to save a friend of his, which means he had good intentions, not evil ones! Plus, that whole sucking in time and the entire world part of the curse is something that even I find to be too extreme of a punishment! Seriously, don't you realize that you'd end up killing innocent people and bring about an end to the entire world had that curse not mean cured by the Staff of Forgiveness?!" Tapemetrosuchus sternly pointed out, making Kairos pale at the very thought of what his Alebrije partner had just said. "Oh... I really didn't think about that!" Kairos said sheepishly. "Plus there's the fact that it was mainly because of that curse that you were killed by a brainwashed Blagel-tune." Secchan pointed out.

That made Kairos flinch in shame. "Well, you can't really blame me for something I did in a past life, and I'm sure he was warned against using the spell, wasn't he?" Kairos said. "MagiYellow definitely was warned by MagiShine not to use that Reverse Magic Spell, though the latter neglected to specify the exact consequences of using it-tune!" Secchan said. That made Kairos facepalm in frustration. "Uh oh, looks like she's about to do it again!" Fuka said as the Lacerta Zodiarts pulled out her syringe, only to be grabbed by Ryusei. "Well, well, well, if it isn't Lacerta Stellio, member of an illegal Reptile trading ring!" Ryusei said. "Wait a minute, Lacerta is her real name, not just the name of the Lizard Constellation her Zodiarts form is modeled after?" Edge asked in confusion. "That's what my sources tell me." Ryusei said. "Dang, talk about ironic!" Fuka noted. "And what's this I hear about an illegal Reptile Trading Ring?!" Lana asked angrily.

"Oh, basically, it's where people illegally sells reptiles, specifically lizards, snakes, turtles, and even crocodilians, caught from the wild as exotic pets, which can be bad for the reptiles since they're not often properly cared for and can either get sick or die before they could even get sold, though sometimes the reptiles would get sold as food products like turtle soup, illegal medicines like the kind made from spiny-tailed lizards, drugs like those made from snake venom, reptilian leather products such as handbags, wallets, and watch straps, or even taxidermy specimens!" Ryusei explained, much to the anger of not only Lana, but also the Ninja Turtles, who stopped briefly with their fight against the Ninja Monster Clan to glare at Lacerta Stellio. "That's totally not cool, dudette!" Mikey said before he and his brothers resumed their fight against the Ninja Monster Clan. Heck, even the Reptile Animarius Soldiers, specifically Gilabite, Orbicula, and Coralillo, as well as the Coatl Brothers and their two cousins, weren't very happy to hear about Lacerta's criminal position. "You've got to be kidding me!" Gilabite said in disgust. "Disgusting!" Orbicula said in equal disgust. "You're Dessssssspicable!" Coralillo said angrily. Lana then punched Lacerta in the face, leaving a black eye.

"Ow! Why you little brat!" Lacerta said angrily before she grabbed Lana by the throat and tried to choke her. Before feeling a tap on her shoulder and turning just in time to see another fist colliding with her face, blackening her other eye. "No one hurts my siblings like that." Lori said angrily as Ryusei cuffed her and Shintomaru opened another Aurora Curtain. Ryusei then quickly tossed Lacerta into Aurora Curtain before it closed. "You okay, Lana?" Lori asked in concern. "I'm fine now, thanks for asking!" Lana said. "Alright then, who's next?" Kairos asked. "That would be me, Bufo, powered by the Toad Constellation!" Bufo said. "Leave him..." Toadus said, tearing off his cloak revealing his ripped physique and removing the top part of his cane revealing his concealed sword. "To me." The Japanese Common Toad Animarius requested. "You don't scare me!" Bufo declared as he then held his breath and inflated his whole body like a big balloon before jumping up and bouncing towards Toadus in an attempt to crush him.

Unfazed, Toadus muttered some mystic language as green energy started flowing up the blade of his sword. "Oh, this guy is in trouble now!" Bufoam said, realizing what his brother was doing. "What do you mean?" Fuka asked. "Before our defection, Master Toadus was King Draco's second in command, not Tyrannus, and he's about to demonstrate why." Gorf said. "Secret Technique: Amphibious Fury!" Toadus called, rapidly slashing his sword, sending energy waves that no matter where he bounced, Bufo was hit before Toadus dashed and delivered one last finishing blow, causing an explosion, sending both Bufo's human form and the Zodiarts Switch, which astonishingly shattered and turned into stardust the moment it hit the ground, to crash into the floor. "Holy Shamoly/Chalupa!" Lincoln and Manny said in awe. "Amphibious Fury, a secret technique passed down from generation to generation, mastery of it is proof of your worthiness as leader of the Amphibians." Bufoam explained as Toadus sheathed his sword and put his cloak back on before Ryusei inspected the defeated Zodiarts, who was revealed to be a very fat Japanese man with glasses. "Hikigaeru Don'yoku, ringleader of an illegal Amphibian Trading Ring." He recognized. "WHAT?!" Lana asked angrily. "Yeah, that's right, I run the operations for having wild-caught endangered frogs, toads, newts, salamanders, and other types of Amphibians be bought as either exotic pets, traditional Chinese medicines, and even as food, especially frog legs, which I myself find to be surprisingly delicious, especially with ketchup! And I'd still be in business if it weren't for that meddling Toad!" Don'yoku Hikigaeru complained, right before Lana angrily marched towards him and kicked him in the crotch, causing the fat man to kneel down in pain.

"CONSIDER YOURSELF LUCKY I'M CURRENTLY OCCUPIED, PUNK!" Adelaide called from LuchaKaiser as they along with Daileon were still dealing with the giant foes. "AS FOR ME, I HAVE A PET FROG MYSELF, BUT I NEVER GOT HIM FROM AN ILLEGAL TRADER LIKE YOU, AND I ABSOLUTELY HATE THE IDEA OF ANYONE EATING FROGS, ESPECIALLY THEIR LEGS!" Lana angrily yelled, before beating Don'yoku up in a fight cloud. "Uh, Lana-chan, I understand you're angry, but could you please let him go so I can arrest him?" Ryusei asked nicely. "Don't worry, I've got this! Lana, Sit!" Lola commanded, causing Lana to stop beating up Don'yoku, sit on the floor like a dog, and then whimper sadly like a dog too. "Okay, that's just plain weird." Ryusei said before slapping a pair of handcuffs on Don'yoku before Shintomaru opened up an Aurora Curtain beneath him. That caused Don'yoku to fall through the Aurora Curtain before it closed back up.

"Yeah, Lana is an animal lover, and she sometimes behaves like a dog, especially by chewing on Dad's shoes in secret!" Lola said. "Don't judge me!" Lana said. "Okay, who's next?" Fuka asked. "That would be us!" Weevile said, pointing at himself and Cochineala. "Okay, I can tell that you're a Weevil, but what kind of insect are you supposed to be?" Fuka asked in confusion, pointing at Cochineala. "Looks like a Cochineal, a Scale Insect in the suborder Sternorrhycha, from which the natural dye Carmine is derived." Lisa noted. "Carmine?" Fuka asked in confusion. "It is a pigment of a bright-red color obtained from the aluminium complex derived from carminic acid, which is a chemical substance that occurs naturally in some scale insects such as the cochineal! Heck, it's used as a colrant for food, candy included, fabrics, and lipstick! As for how Carminic Acid is extracted from the Cochineals, well, unfortunately, it involves brushing female Cochineals off of the cactus leaves that they feed on, collecting them in baskets, and then killing them by either immersion in hot water or by exposure to sunlight, steam, or the heat of an oven before drying them up for shipping, and then crush them up into a fine powdery substance!" Lisa said, much to everyone's shock, horror, and disgust.

"Yeah." Lisa said. "Does that mean, those red candies we usually snack literally contains crushed up insects?!" Lola asked in horror. "That depends on the type of dye used." Lisa said. "Of course, unless you're allergic to them, Carmine would be considered a little healthier compared to other oynthetic dyes such as Red No. 2 and Red No. 40, which both carry far greater health risks due them being made from either coal or petroleum byproducts!" She added. "Then again, there's also this additive made from the oil from the castor gland of a beaver, located near th-" Lisa said. "TOO MUCH INFORMATION, LISA!" Lola said, "Right, my apologies!" Lisa said sheepishly. "Okay, does anyone have any ideas about these two?" Stacey asked. "I don't know, but I'm up for squashing some bugs!" Fuka said before charging towards Cochineala with her baseball bat. However, Cochineala, out of fright, instinctively covered herself in a white wax-like substance to form a barrier that instantly blocked Fuka's attack.

"What the?" Fuka asked. "Yeah, that wax-like substance is what Cochineals use to protect themselves from intense sunlight and water loss, though I guess this type has been modified for defense against physical attacks!" Lisa said. "Great, anything else?" Fuka asked sarcastically, right before Cochineala sprayed her with a reddish purplish liquid that clearly ain't blood, much to disgust. "Ew! What's this now?" Fuka asked in disgust. "Oh, I probably should have mentioned that Carminic Acid, the stuff that we get the Carmine food dye from, can also be used as a defense mechanism, specifically as a deterrant for ants." Lisa said. "EW!" Fuka said. "And there's more where that came from!" Cochineala said, sprayed some more of it, only for Fuka to dodge it...unfortunately for Cochineala, it wound up on Lola! "Oh Sugar Honey Iced Tea!" Lincoln said in fright. Lola then let out a primordial scream and pounced on Cochineala, beating the ever living daylights out of the Animarius!

Heck, Lola's attacks were so strong that not even Cochineala's Wax Barrier strong enough protect the Cochineal Animarius. "AAAH! Weevile, help me!" Cochineala begged. "Don't worry, my love, I'm coming!" Weevile called back before flying towards Lola and then pierced her from behind with his sharp rostrum (the weevil's snout), causing Lola gasp in pain before slumping over. Only for a member of the Ninja Monster Clan to slam into him, courtesy of Raph, knocking him off the two. "Yo, guys, we need medical help here, cause Lola's not looking too good!" Raph said upon noticing the injured and unconscious Lola. "Adelaide-chan's still busy, so I'll heal her." Sakura said. She then over to Lola's side and saw the injury that Weevile inflicted on her back earlier. "Don't worry, Lola-chan, I've got you." Sakura said, using her healing powers. "Just to be safe, I'll call for Cala so she can rid Lola of any infections Weevile left." AkaRed said.

"Good idea, AkaRed-san!" Sakura said as Lola started to wake up. "Easy, Lola-chan, everything will be okay." Sakura said as Calarramenis appeared from a portal. "Is this the patient?" Calarramenis asked. "Yes, this is her, I used my healing powers to heal any injuries, but AkaRed-san is concerned about any infections." Sakura explained. "Understood! Curing Powder!" Calarramenis said as she then spread out her wings and sprayed out a Vanilla-colored powder onto Lola's body. "Thanks, now if you'll excuse me, I have to put the hurt down on two bugs!" Lola said, picking up Cochineala by the legs and tossing her into Weevile. That caused both Insect Animarius to get knocked down. Lola let out a primordial yell before jumping up and shouting "LOLA SMASH!" before descending down towards Weevile and Cochineala with her fists forwards. Shattering both their soul cores at once. That caused an explosion that caused both Weevile and Cochineala to revert to Soul Cores with the images of a male Boll Weevil and a female Cochineal, though not without causing a literal splatter of Carminic Acid resulting from Cochineala's death. "Well that certainly was...messy." Lincoln said, sealing the Soul Cores. "Collect some of that Carminic Acid for me, will you brother? I want to see if it's any different from the one produced by Earth Cochineals." Lisa requested.

"And just what do you intend to do with that stuff afterwards, Lisa, trick us into eating food and drinks made with it?" Lincoln asked suspiciously. "Oh big brother, if only you knew of some of the things that wind up in the food humans eat on a daily basis without a care in the world." Lisa said. "But, anyway, no, I'm not going to do that, since that Carminic Acid came from a sentient being after all!" She added. "Very well then." Lincoln said as Bowladillo approached the group. "Hey, uh...would it be too much trouble for me to join your guys' side?" He asked. "Huh? Really?" Lincoln asked in surprise. "Yeah, considering how strong that girl is, I don't think that my own natural body armor can protect me from her powerful punches, even when I'm curled up into a ball! The name's Bowladillo, by the way!" Bowladillo said. "Well, what can you do, Bowladillo-san?" Sakura asked politely.

"I pretty much roll around like a bowling ball when I curl myself up!" Bowladillo said before curling himself into an armored ball. "Well, I don't see why not." Lincoln said. "Oh, thank you! And to prove how serious I am." Bowladillo said, curling up into a ball and striking Gilabite, Orbicula, Coralillo, the Coatl brothers and their relatives like bowling pins! That made Tapirus, Ectoby, and Jaguaron rather surprised at Bowladillo's bravery while General Leo felt outraged at the Three-Banded Armadillo Animarius's betrayal. "WHY YOU LITTLE!" Leo said angrily. He then roared and unsheathed his claws before charging towards Bowladillo. However, General Leo's claws were suddenly blocked by a Tecpatl knife held by Jaguaron, much to the Nemean Lion Animarius's shock. "Et tu, Jaguaron?" Leo asked. "After what I've seen with Bowladillo, it's better to join the side that's more honorable than the Empire will ever be! And besides, I've never liked you, in fact, I hate you, ever since the day you've gone and overthrown Siberius in spite of the fact that you're not actually from the Mammal Tribe!" Jaguaron said, much to General Leo's annoyance. Everyone looked to Toadus. "It's complicated." He said. "Can we join too?" Tapirus and Ectoby asked, bashing two Neo Lizardons together.

"Certainly!" Deltoad said, much to General Leo's further annoyance. "Oh come on!" General Leo complained. "Face it, General Leo, or should I say Leonidas, you'll never be the leader that Siberius was, cause he was honorable and noble, something that I've always respected about him to the point of seeing him like an older brother, unlike you, a dishonorable cheat of a Nemean Lion who had the gall even dare to overthrow him!" Jaguaron said, much to General Leo's anger and disgust. "Siberius was weak! He deserved to be overthrown! I simply took advantage of the fact I was technically part of the Mammal Tribe as well and exercised my right to do it! LL proved just how weak Siberius was when I used him as my champion during the Hesharitas!" General Leo said, much to Jaguaron's shock. "You did what?!" Jaguaron asked in shock and horror. "Oh yeah." Lincoln said, seething awkwardly.

"Long story short, during that Hesharitas thing, which I was forced into, Siberius was my third opponent, which happened after I've already defeated and sealed away Pterror and Kuwagata, and, well, using my Water Mode's finishing move, the Rider Frozen Tsunami, I reduced him to a Soul Core and sealed away in my Driver! I'm really sorry!" Lincoln apologized. "Did he say anything to you before you defeated him?" Jaguaron asked. "No, not much, except for when he said that tigers love water after I've sprayed him with a stream of water from my Water Mode! The rest of time, all he did was roar a lot and behave almost like a ferocious savage beast!" Lincoln said. "What? That's not like Siberius at all! I know him too well! He was an honorable Tiger who gives those he fights against in spars a fair fighting chance! Even when fighting, he never does anything that can be considered savage! How can this be?" Jaguaron asked in confusion, to which General Leo chuckled a little bit. "Wouldn't you like to know?" The Nemean Lion Animarius asked smugly, which prompted Aya to read his aura. "You monster! You injected him with some sort of serum?!" Aya said in shock.

That made the heroes gasp in shock. "Serum? Wait a minute... No! It can't be! Used the Essence of a Berserker Crocus on Siberius, didn't you?!" Jaguaron asked angrily, confusing everyone else. "Berserker Crocus? What's that?" Clyde asked in confusion. "That's a species of flower native to our home planet Animari Prime! Long before King Draco came into power, Animarius in the Berserker class often used the liquid Essence made from the Berserker Crocus's plant juice to increase their strength! However, there's a downside to it! While the Essence can be safely used in small doses for the strength increase, bigger medium-sized doses tend to increasingly change their personality to a much unhinged aggressive one and, if the doses go any higher than that, it can make any Animarius turn completely savage and feral!" Toadus explained in horror. "You mean like the Night Howlers from the movie Zootopia?" Sid asked. "Gorf and I have watched that movie with Andros and Phixia a few nights ago, so I would say that the comparison between the fictional plant and the Berserker Crocus is almost somewhat disturbingly accurate, at least for the latter one's high doses!" Toadus confirmed.
"Although there is no known antidote in this case." Toadus said.

"In fact, the only way to get an Animarius inflicted with the Essence of that flower back to normal would be to, unfortunately, have them reverted to a Soul Core and revive them with the fruit from the Tree of Life!" He added. Everyone cringed at this. "Yeah." Toadus said as Jaguaron growled angrily. "Is This True, Leonidas?!" Jaguaron asked angrily. "Yes! The moment I revived Siberius from his Soul Core, he refused to be my Champion for the Hesharitas, so I had to take some extreme measures by injecting him with the Berserker Crocus Essence that I had stored away in my room for emergency purposes, specifically in a dosage that's not big enough for him to turn completely feral, yet big enough to change his personality, intelligence, and temperament into a wild, aggressive, and savage-like one while retaining his ability to speak, and then I did a little bit of hypnosis with a coin to suppress his memories of me and condition him to attack LL on sight, just so that I would make him my Champion, whether he'd like it or not!" General Leo admitted, much to the disgust of even King Draco. "I'd like a word with you later, General Leo." King Draco said angrily.

That made General Leo gulp nervously upon hearing that. "Oh, big kitty's in trouble!" Futaba said with a chuckle. "Futaba, everyone." Mikage, still in control of Zen Fudo's body said, catching the Shadow Angels' attention. "That voice! Toma?" Johannes asked. "Don't be fooled, Johannes." Futaba said in disgust, pointing his sword at Zen Fudo/Mikage. "This is not the Toma we once knew!" He spat angrily. "You're technically right! I'm Toma's reincarnation Mikage Towano!" Mikage said. "I have been allowed to take over the body of Zen Fudo, who is Appolonius' reincarnation, that I have been peacefully inhabiting for two years, in order to try and talk you guys out of this nonsense!" Mikage explained. "Nonsense? Nonsense?!" Futaba asked angrily. "You've all been given a second chance at life, and Futaba and Moroha, you've both been given incredible new powers, you shouldn't waste these gifts on something as petty as revenge!" Mikage said.

"You think our revenge against the very beings that caused our race's extinction is petty?!" Moroha asked angrily. "We've existed far longer than those wingless ones had ever did, and we're superior to them in every way!" Lensi said. "It's that type of thinking that drove to our extinction! The humans have a saying, 'Pride cometh before the fall', and we were a prime example of that!" Mikage told the Archetypal Angel. "And besides, the humans weren't very keen on being constantly slaughtered and used as living batteries/plant food for our Tree of Life!" He added. "The past two years have poisoned your mind, Toma!" Johannes said angrily. Golshi growled in agreement. "No, they've shown me the truth, one your pride is getting in the way of you seeing!" Mikage said. "Enough!" Futaba said, pressing a button on his driver.

Knight! Divine Punishment!

He then charged up his sword with energy. Before charging at Zen/Mikage in an effort to kill him, only for the High Commander to effortlessly catch the blade in his bare hands. "You all disappoint me, I thought if it was coming from me of all people, you'd listen to reason." Mikage said. "Well, what can I say? Revenge can make you as mad as a raging bull!" Futaba said, right before he twisted the dial on his Driver to the Ox face.

Ox Mode, Activate!

Once that happened, the green eyes of his Knight Mode's face faded down as his whole helmet turned counterclockwise twice to allow the black ox-themed face, complete with large golden horns and a golden nose ring, to take the front spot and have its red eyes glow before the pair of ox hoof-shaped brass knuckles flipped themselves out from underneath Futaba's gauntlets and set themselves in front of his fists.

(*~Spanish Matador Music!~*) Rage Up! Horns Out! Charge Forth! Kamen Rider Tetra, Ox Mode! (*Ox Bellowing!*)

His sword then magically changed into a battleaxe who's blades resembled a bull's horns and swung it, only for Cayenne and Kagura to block it with their weapons. "You want the Commander, you'll have to go through us first!" Cayenne declared. "Very well then, if you both insist!" Futaba said. "And they call me loco!" Jorge said. Back with the heroes, specifically Fuka, Kairos, Macros, Edge, Mambana, Toxobra, Mormyron, Gracilis, Toadus, Bufoam, Deltoad, and Stacey, they're still up against Gilabite, Orbicula, Coralillo, the Coatl brothers, and their two cousins Velachifo and Culebronk. "How are we supposed to deal with these guys?" Makros asked. As he said that, Coralillo slithered up behind Makros and bit him on the left shoulder. "Ow!" Makros yelped in pain. "Uh oh, Carlota, you'd better get in their quick!" Lisa said worriedly. "What's wrong, Lisa?" Carlota asked. "Based on the coloration, I have deduced that Makros was just bitten by an Animarius based off of the Micrurus Nigrocintus, or Central American Coral Snake, a highly venomous species!" Lisa said.

"Seriously, it's venom contains a strong neurotoxin that causes neuromuscular dysfunction/motor weakness as well as respiratory muscle weakness and the need for ventilatory support!" She added as Makros started to feel the effects of Coralillo's venom. "Uh oh, don't worry, Makros, I'm coming!" Carlota said, only to be blocked off by the Turkey and Vulture Dopants. "Going somewhere, girlie?" The Turkey Dopant asked. "Uh oh." Frida said, before seeing Zoe charging at her again and getting an idea. "Manny!" Frida called, catching Manny's attention and making moves miming him launching his chain hand at Zoe and using it to toss her into her mother and grandmother. "Oh, Okay!" Manny replied. Before launching his chain hand which wrapped around Zoe's ankle. "What the?" Zoe asked in shock. Before Manny flung her into Lady Gobbler and Voltura.

"Ow! My back!" Lady Gobbler complained in pain. "Nice!" Carlota said before using her powers to siphon the venom from Makros as Calarramenis used her powers as well. "*Groan!* What happened?" Makros asked he was recovering. "You were bit by an Animarius with the motif of a highly venomous snake." Lisa explained. "Seriously?! That's why I felt so weak?!" Makros asked in shock. "Yes. Let me guess, never got bitten by a venomous snake or anything venomous on your home planet before, haven't you?" Lisa asked. "Which would be ironic given the fact that you resemble a creature from a continent which a majority of the most venomous snakes and spiders on Earth call home." She added. "Well, to be fair, we don't actually have venomous animals on Straya!" Makros said. "Then just be glad you don't live in Australia." Lisa said. "In that case, allow to beat that tricolored snake up to a bloody pulp!" Makros declared as he angrily glared at Coralillo. "Just stay clear of the fangs!" Lisa said.

"Mind if I help on that end?" Carlota asked while coated in the venom that she had extracted from Makros earlier. "It doesn't matter how many of you there are!" Coralillo declared. He then coiled himself into a spiral and spun around so fast that he gave off a hypnotic effect via his body pattern that effected both Makros and Carlota. Coralillo started laughing. That's when Panopticon stepped in and blasted Coralillo with his eye lasers, making the Central American Coral Snake Animarius stop spinning. While also snapping Makros and Carlota out of his hypnosis. "What just happened?" Carlota asked in confusion. "Apparently, this Animarius can hypnotize people by spinning." Lisa said. "Which is surprisingly effective because of his natural red, yellow, and black color pattern!" She added. "Oh, Sssssnap!" Was all that Coralillo said before he exploded and reverted into a Soul Core with the image of a coiled up Central American Coral Snake on it! "Who's next?" Carlota asked as Lincoln sealed the Soul Core away. "I SURRENDER!" Gilabite and Orbicula both declared.

That made the heroes look at the two Reptile Animarius soldiers in shock and surprise while General Ophiucus dropped his jaw in total outrage and disbelief. "Lisa?" Carlota asked. "Heloderma Suspectum and Phrynosoma Orbiculare, laymen's terms, Gila Monster and Mexican Plateau Horned Lizard." Lisa noted. "The Gila Monster I'm familiar with, but what's a Mexican Plateau Horned Lizard and what's so special about it?" Carlota asked in confusion. "Well the Horned Lizard is known for it's rather unique defense mechanism, underneath their eye is a sinus that fills with blood, and by pressurizing that sinus, they forcefully expel a stream of blood that can travel over 3 feet!" Lisa explained. "EWWWWWWW!" Everyone who heard that said in disgust. Well, except for Lucy, who simply smiled and said "Wicked!" in delight. "Well I don't know much about Earth Horned Lizards, but the blood I shoot..." Orbicula said, demonstrating said unique defense mechanism, hitting the Coatl brothers and their relatives before they screamed in pain. "Is slightly acidic." She explained.

"*Shudder!* Glad I'm not on the receiving end of that!" Fuka said nervously. Thinking ahead, Xicalchurn summoned some mystical water from within the jicara-shaped structure on his back and then poured it all on himself, his brothers, and their cousins that washed the acidic blood off and instantly healed them all. "Thanks for the quick heal, cousin!" Velachifo said. "Great, just great." Carlota said. "What kind of snakes are those guys?" Stacey asked in confusion. "They all appear to be based off serpents from Aztec myth." Lisa noted, examining her book on Aztec folklore. "The one that just healed up the other snakes is based on a Xicalcoatl a.k.a. the Aztec "Chocolate Cup Snake" which is easily identified by the natural growth on its back that looks like a jicara, which is a gourd chocolate cup, down to the last detail, with colorful designs and patterns on its smooth surface, which it uses to lure humans to the river in order to drown them!" Lisa explained, referring to Xicalchurn. "Freaky." Carlota said.

"I'm sorry, did somebody say 'chocolate'?" Lola asked with a crazed look. "Not the kind you want, direct older sibling." Lisa said. "Oh, you want chocolate? You've got chocolate!" Xicalchurn said as he then summoned a small blob of liquid chocolate from his jicara-shaped growth on his back and threw it at Lola, who caught it with her mouth. However, upon tasting and swallowing it, Lola started spitting and gagging in disgust. "Oh Yuck! That's Chocolate's Bitter!" Lola complained. "What about the others?" Fuka asked. "The parrot-headed crocodile-tailed snake must be based on a Velachif, a giant and hideous snake found above the lake of Tenochtitlan! It is amphibious and extremely venomous, since death is virtually certain if bitten by one, though, ironically, the inhabitants of Mexico frequently hunt it, since its flesh is said to be of excellent quality!" Lisa said, referring to Velachifo. As she said that, a bit of venom leaked from Velachifo's razor-sharp parrot beak and burned a hole in the ground. "As you can see, Velachifo's venom is also acidic!" Gilabite said. "Noted!" Carlota said in fright. "Anyway, the anaconda-like snake that's covered in fur and has a calf-shaped head must be based on El Culebron, a master shapeshifter that resides in the rural countryside of Chile, whose natural form is that of a monstrous snake with a head shaped like a calf, but can shapeshift into any form that frightens children the most! One variation of El Culebron is that he hides under children's beds at night and frightens them before eating them whole! Legend also states that this creature will attack hikers, mule drivers, and any human that stumbles across his hiding place! Heck, people are warned that if they visit Chile's rural countryside they must avoid places where he is known to inhabit! Plus, El Culebron has been said to arrive at the sites of treasure in a short time after him has been buried, since that this creature is attracted to treasures! But legend also has it that he can attract wealth to anyone who can capture him! However, as one can imagine, capturing it is no easy feat!" Lisa said, referring to Culebronk.

"On a side note, it is also rumored that El Culebron's eyes have a hypnotic effect if stared at for too long, leaving prey vulnerable to being devoured!" She added. "You mean like Kaa from "The Jungle Book"?" Carlota asked. "In a way, yes!" Lisa answered. "Okay, so don't look into his eyes, got it, who else?" Carlota asked. "Their cousins, and Xicalchurns brothers, Ehecando, Xiuhferno, Maquizoom, Mazantler, Chimascale, and Tlildro." Toadus said. "Ehecanado must be based on the Ehecacoatl, a winged feathered serpent/dragon that's sometimes associated with Aztec Feathered Serpent God Quetzalcoatl, since it's known to direct the wind that carries the rain through Mexico!" Lisa said. "And Ehecanado is a master of wind manipulation, being able produce hurricane-strength tornadoes at ease!" Toadus said. Ehecando chuckled raising his wings in preperation. "Xiuhferno must be based on the Xiuhcoatl, which is the Fire Serpent associated with the Aztec Solar and War God Huitzilopochtli!" Lisa said. "Which is appropriate since Xiuhferno is a master of fire manipulation!" Gorf said. Fire could then be seen forming in Xiuhferno's mouth.

"Maquizoom is obviously based on Maquizcoatl, which is the Aztec Double-Headed Serpent, often shown in statue form, that's often seen as a bad omen and known for gossiping!" Lisa said. "Well, Maquizoom is not only incredibly fast, but he's also a master of deceit, due to his uncanny wit and manipulative gossiping, making his enemies turn against one another!" Toadus said. "What a creep!" Carlota said in disgust. "Mazantler is obviously based the Mazacoatl, meaning "deer snake" because of the antlers, which is a great serpent that lives in caves on steep mountains and cliffs, who never leaves its lair, as it can draw in rabbits, deer, and humans alike with just its breath!" Lisa said. "That's pretty similar to Mazantler, since he has a special scented breath that draws in enemies like a magnet, allowing them to get close them for him to maul them with his antlers and bite them with his fangs!" Gorf said. "So you're saying his breath is laced with special pheromones, fascinating!" Lisa said. "Seriously, Lisa?" Kairos asked in annoyance. "Oh, Sorry! Anyway, it appears that Chimalscale must be based on the Chimalcoatl, meaning "shield snake", which is a long, thick Mexican snake that earns its name from the fleshy, colorful shield on its back! It is said that it's appearance is an omen of death or prosperity and fortune in war, depending on the occasion!" Lisa said. "Well, aside from the obvious strong defense that he uses with his flesh shield, Chimalscale can actually manipulate luck, specifically by giving good to his allies and back to his enemies!" Toadus said.

"And guesssss which kind of luck thissss bringssss!" Chimalscale declared, breathing out a black smoke towards the heroes and defected Animarius. "Oh no you don't!" Ciannan declared, summoning a giant energy four leaf clover that protected his allies and stopped the smoke in it's tracks before four leaf clover shaped marks appeared on everyone he was allied with's bodies. "These will protect us against anything Chimalscale might try!" He explained. "Thanks, Cianán!" Kairos said. Curious, Chimascale flicked his tongue at Ciannan and recoiled in disgust. "Leprechaunssss." He said in annoyance. "Part Leprechaun." Ciannan corrected. "Part Leprechaun?! Does that mean he has a pot of gold that I can use?" Jorge asked in greedy curiosity. All the heroes from the El Tigre world and Emiliano glared at Jorge for that comment. "Oh, right! *Chuckle!* Sorry!" Jorge apologized. "Yeah, no, I may be part-Leprechaun, but I definitely do not have a pot of gold!" Cianán said, much to Jorge's disappointment.

"Rats." Jorge complained. "Who else?" Carlota asked Lisa. "The last one, Tlildro, must be based on the Tlilcoatl, meaning "black snake", also known as the Acoatl, meaning "water snake", which is a long, powerful snake found in the swamps and waterlogged caves of Mexico! The powerful mouth of a tlilcoatl can generate a suction strong enough to draw in prey from a distance! Tlilcoatls feed mostly on fish, but they are not above drowning and eating people, as they can spit venom as passers-by, incapacitating them enough to suck them in, pull them underwater, and devour them! Of course, for those serpents, sometimes a more elaborate stratagem is required! A tlilcoatl will dig out a small pool and stock it with fish to serve as bait! It then pauses after depositing a new catch of fish, looking around, then going back to get more! For hungry lost humans, it is tempting to profit from the snake's absence to steal fish! But the tlilcoatl, standing erect, easily detects thieves, and chases them so fast that it seems to fly over the grass! Once someone gets caught in the snake's coils there is no escape, as the tlilcoatl pushes both ends of its tail into the unfortunate victim's nostrils, or any other opening if you know what I mean, before literally squeezing the life out of them!" Lisa said.

Everyone shuddered at the implications. "Any ideas on how to deal with them?" Kairos asked. "It should only be a few more minutes before the Trinity Buster is back up and running, until then, just try and see what you can do!" Lisa said. "Okay, we can try!" Carlota said. "That'sssss what you think!" Chimalscale said before breathing out a white smoke that covered himself, his brothers, and his cousins, causing them all to be marked with a shield symbol. "Oh that's a problem." Orbicula said. "Why, what's wrong?" Fuka asked in confusion. "That would be the good luck portion of his powers." Gilabite said. "Basically, it allows him to mark himself and his allies with a shield symbol that gives them all total invincibility, making them stronger and unable to get damaged in any way!" Toxobra explained. "Oh yeah? We'll see about that!" Fuka said before charging towards the Coatl brothers and cousins and whacked Tlildro with her baseball bat, only for it to break up on impact, much to Fuka's chagrin. "Dang It!" Fuka complained while th Coatl brothers and their cousins laughed at her failure. "Well let's see if their invincibility protects them against this!" Kairos said as he once again cast the reverse spell.

The spell rewound time to before Chimalscale cast the invincibility spell, which Fuka took advantage of by smashing him upside the head with her bat! "Don't let him cast it again!" Kairos declared. "On it!" Stacey said as he charged forwards, while firing the Geartozinger. Of course, Chimalscale was able to easily deflect the blasts with his flesh shield while the other snakes were able to easily dodge them. "Chimalscale's flesh is too thick and the others' serpentine bodies make them too nimble!" Lisa said. "Should Toxobra and I help in that matter, then?" Mambana asked. "If you think you can!" Lisa said. It didn't take long for the Coatl brothers and their cousins to notice Mambana and Toxobra as they glared angrily at them. "Ssssso, you two are the traitorousssss sssssnakesss that King Draco informed ussss about!" Tlildro said. "What's it to you?" Mambana asked.

"We serpents are proud to be evil, and it really irks us to find out that two snake Animarius soldiers have already turned good and detected from the Empire!" Maquizoom said. "We had our reasons! Granted mine was out of fear of the human named Lola, but still!" Toxobra said. "As for my reason, well, I was originally a regular Black Mamba that was once brainwashed by Shockwing into killing Aya's older sister Akofena, so once Aya restored my memories, I chose to defect from the Empire to atone for my sins!" Mambana said. "Pathetic!" The Coatl brothers declared. "Excuse Me?! Are You Calling The Death Of My Only Older Sister Pathetic?!" Aya asked angrily. "That and the fact an Animarius wants to repent! We're trying to conquer you people for crying out loud!" Maquizoom declared. That Aya angry enough to shift into her LuchaHyena form. Before pouncing on Maquizoom faster than he could react! "HEY! GET OFF OF ME, YOU MEDDLING HYENA CUB!" Maquizoom yelled angrily before finding an opening and then bit her tail with both of his heads, making Aya yelp in pain. Before shifting back to her human self.

"Ow, Ow, Ow, Ow, Ow!" Aya went while rubbing her butt in pain. "Consider yourself lucky that was a dry bite!" Maquizoom said. "What does he mean by that?" Fuka asked in confusion. "Some species of venomous snake have the ability to choose whether or not to use their venom when biting, in fact it's mainly the young ones you really have to worry about since they lack this ability." Lisa explained. "In other words, a dry bite is basically a snake bite without any venom injected into the wound!" She added. "Doesn't make it any less painful!" Aya said as Mecha Pollon barked. "Good news, the Trinity Buster is ready for action, you just need to get them all together so no one can escape!" Lisa said. "Leave that to me! M-M-M-Magine!" Magine called, casting a spell that caused all the Coatl Brothers and their cousins to get tangled up in one big ball! "Hey! Not cool!" Mazantler complained. "Nice! Trinity Buster Mode, Mecha-Pollon!" Lincoln called as Mecha-Pollon barked in response before transforming into his Trinity Buster Mode, which was then caught by Lincoln, Sakura, and Clyde. "Uh oh." They all said. "Sealing Blast!" Lincoln called, pulling the trigger.

Thinking quickly, Ehecanado managed to free his wings and then flapped them very hard, summoning a huge tornado that lifted himself and his balled up brothers and cousins up into the, making the Trinity Buster's laser blast miss them and instead hit the shackles of Ronaldo, Jorge, and Emiliano. "Finally!" Jorge said as the three, thanks to Laird's telekinesis, hit the ground safely while King Draco grumbled. "Cicadeath, Flygor, I need an emergency portal to the castle!" He said over the communicator. "Yes, your majesty!" Cicadeath and Flygor called. A portal then opened up right next to King Draco. "Coatl brothers, and cousins, fall back!" King Draco ordered. Not needing to be told twice, being stuck all together in a big ball, they rolled together through the portal. "Dang it!" Lincoln said, snapping his fingers in frustration as Mecha Pollon whimpered. "Sorry to disappoint you, LL, but I can't let the Coatl brothers and their cousins get defeated that easily! It would be a complete waste of their potential and special talents!" King Draco said. "I really hate this guy!" Aurachnid said.

Meanwhile...

Takeru, Makoto, Alain, Isau, Ibiscus, Phoenexus, Frida, and CJ were up against Akuji, Lady Gobbler, Voltura, Zoe, Gallus, Aquila, Noctua, Tucana, Toucanick, Curassock, and Fregatax. "Up for Round 2, Specter?" Akuji asked, holding up the Akenhaten Eyecon. However, before he could click it, a second Eyecon zoomed out of his holder and knocked the Akenhaten Eyecon out of his hand before possessing a nearby zombie, causing it to be decorated in armor reminisce of a Spanish Conquistador. "NO! In honor of this setting, I demand a turn!" The possessed Zombie called out in a Spanish accent. "Okay, who or what just possessed that zombie and what's with conquistador armor?" Frida asked in confusion. "I am Hernán Cortés de Monroy y Pizarro Altamirano! 1st Marquess of the Valley of Oaxaca, Legendary Spanish Conquistador, and conqueror of the Aztec Empire!" Hernan Cortes declared. "Basically these items called Eyecons contain the spirit of historical figures, in that Eyecon's case it is Hernan Cortes." Takeru explained.

"Her-who?" Frida asked in confusion, making the possessed Zombie fall over in frustration. "WEREN'T YOU PAYING ATTENTION?!" Hernan asked in frustration. "Oh, sorry! No I wasn't!" Frida apologized. roaned in frustration. "Welcome to my world!" Chakal said. "Basically, Hernan Cortes de Monroy y Pizarro Altamirano was a Conquistador who in the 16th century sailed from Spain to Mexico, inspired by rumors of gold in the Mexican interior." Takeru started explaining. "There he met the Aztecs, and due to a combination of superior weaponry and having brought Smallpox from Spain, he was able to basically annihilate them." Lisa explained. "Plus, there was the Tlaxcalans, the neighboring rivals of the Aztecs, joining forces with the Spaniards that were additional factor in the Aztec Empire's downfall, since the Aztec Empire wasn't entirely innocent as they used to go into the jungles, violate the women of weaker tribes, kill their kids, and take their husbands to be brutally sacrificed against their will! Also, throughout his campaign in Mesoamerica, Cortés had many indigenous women as lovers, usually against their will, with the most prominent of them was the woman known as La Malinche, who was one of 20 enslaved women presented to Cortés at the Mayan city Potonchán that was forced to be a mistress, translator, and cultural liaison for Cortés, and then later bore him a son in 1522, not to mention that he had multiple children out of wedlock with many other indigenous women! As for those who survived the Aztec Empire's downfall, Cortez had them cruelly enslaved and had their Aztec culture actively suppressed, including their language, religion, and education, to conform them to his European culture!" She added. "Although he did end up dying an embittered man at the age of 62 after his second trip back to Spain due to Pleurisy, an inflammation of the tissues that line the lungs and chest cavity, which back in the 16th century didn't have a lot in terms of treatment." Lisa added.

"Well, either way, if you insist." Akuji said as the Hernan Cortes icon exited the Zombie and entered Akuji's hand. That's when the Eyecon was revealed to be colored red-and-gold with a stylized image of Hernan Cortes's own coat of arms, which consisting of a conquistador helmet, which had white wings at the sides and a golden lion with red wings on top, set above an escutcheon a.k.a. Royal shield, which had stylized gold-and-red leaves at the sides and was divided into four quadrants with four different symbols in them (a black two-headed eagle in a white background on the upper right quadrant, a golden lion in a red background on the lower right quadrant, a set of three golden crowns, representing the three Aztec emperors of the conquest era (specifically Moctezuma, Cuitlahuac, and Cuauhtemoc), in a black background on the upper left quadrant, and an image of the Aztec city of Tenochtitlan in a blue background on a silver-and-blue wave of water on the lower left quadrant) while having a bordure, shield border, that consisted of a linked chain with seven native American heads, which represent seven vassals of Moctezuma whom Cortés defeated, and a padlock, surrounding the escutcheon and also having an inescutcheon (smaller shield) in the center of the center that had four red stripes and four golden stripes while surrounded by eight small white crosses, on top of the Eyecon as well as the name 'Cortes' at the bottom of said symbol. Before clicking the button on the side and dropping it in his driver.

Eye! Bacchiri Jaaku!

That's when a red-and-golden-colored Parka Ghost, which resembled a suit of Conquistador armor with a helmet that had a feathered plume on the back and a small statue of a golden lion with red wings on top as well a pair of structures shaped like the front halves Spanish sailing ships (complete with rows of cannons and falconettes (small naval cannons) on each side) attached to the shoulder armor, an Arquebus (a matchlock firearm and forerunner of the modern rifle) attached to the Parka Ghost's lower right side, and an Espada Ropera (a straight-bladed sword from Spain) held in a scabbard attached to the Parka Ghost's lower left side, appeared out of Akuji's driver and started floating around him. Akuji then pulled the trigger on his driver.

Kaigan! Cortes! (Spanish music playing) Kin to kami to eiko no tame ni! (For Gold, God, And Glory (It Was The Motto Of The Spanish Conquistadors))

That's when the Cortes Parka Ghost merged with Akuji in place of his usual parka and lifted up its face to form a new helmet with the same image as the Cortes Eyecon. Takeru, Makoto, and Alain countered by pulling out the Musashi, Nobunaga, and Grimm Eyecons and clicking their buttons before inserting them into their transformation devices.

Eye! Bacchiri Minna!/Bacchiri Mirou!/Yes Sir!

Summoning the parka ghosts representing Miyamoto Musashi, Oda Nobunaga, and Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm. They then activated their transformations.

Kaigan! Musashi! (Biwa chord) Kettou! Zubatto! Cho kengou! (Biwa chords and slashing SFX)
Kaigan! Nobunaga! (Gunshot) Ware no ikizama! Okehazama! (Soldiers cheering)
Tengan! Grimm! Mega Ulord! (Dramatic classical music) Fighting Pen!

Takeru, Makoto, and Alain then changed into their Musashi, Nobunaga, and Grimm Damashii forms, respectively. "So, who are these guys supposed to be?" Frida asked. "Miyamoto Musashi, a famed Samurai from Japan's Early Edo period, known for his dual sword technique, Oda Nobunaga, a famed Daimyo from Japan's Sengoku and Azuchi-Momoyama periods who became known as the Great Unifier due to having unified nearly one/third of Japan by the end of his reign in 1582, and Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm, aka the Brothers Grimm, famed German Academics from the 18th and 19th centuries who collected and published folklore, some modern day fairy tales such as Cinderella, The Frog Prince, Hansel And Gretel, Town Musicians of Bremen, Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, Rumpelstiltskin, Sleeping Beauty, and Snow White, were adapted from their original and noticeably extremely dark, seriously, in the original story, Cinderella's stepsisters mutilated their own feet in order to try and fit into the glass slippers, stories." Lisa explained.

Frida nearly dry heaved at the last part. "Yeah." Lisa said. "Jacob and Wilhelm Grimm?" Lucy asked with interest. "Indeed." Alain said. "Of course, the Brothers Grimm are distinct among the 15 heroic souls in that they are two individuals incarnated as the same Ghost Eyecon and, while they indeed appear as a single ghost in the real world, are shown to exist as separate individuals within their own Eyecon!" He added. "Okay, that's interesting! But anyway, while Edgar Allen Poe and H.P. Lovecraft are my personal favorites when it comes to authors of Dark Stories, I do have some admiration for the Brothers Grimm, since their original unaltered stories have the kind of darkness that I like! I was wondering if I can have an autograph from them later on when this battle is over!" Lucy said. "Who are we to deny a young fan's request?" Jacob and Wilhelm's voices called out from the damashii.

That made Lucy blush a little with a small smile. "Thanks, I appreciate that!" Lucy said. "For now though, we need to get rid of these punks!" Makoto said, firing the Gan Gun Hand. However, Aquila used his large metal wings to block the blasts, much to the heroes' chagrin. "You're going to have to try better than that!" The Eagle Constellation Zodiarts declared. "Dang!" Frida complained. "So, what are these Zodiarts based on?" CJ asked. "Looks like the Rooster Constellation Gallus. the Eagle Constellation Aquila, the Owl Constellation Noctua, and the Toucan Constellation Tucana." Lisa said. "While Aquila and Tucana are both modern constellations, Gallus and Noctua are both obsolete constellations! Interestingly enough, before Noctua was invented, the French astronomer Pierre Charles Le Monnier had introduced a bird on Hydra's tail as the constellation Solitaire, named after the extinct flightless bird known as the Rodrigues solitaire, which so happens to be related to the equally extinct Dodo bird, but the image was that of a rock thrush, which had been classified in the genus Turdus, giving rise to the constellation name Turdus Solitarius, the solitary thrush! Later on, in 1807, British Renaissance man Thomas Young reinterpreted Solitaire as a Mockingbird on his map in "A Course of Lectures on Natural Philosophy and the Mechanical Arts"! Finally, in 1822, another British Renaissance man, Alexander Jamieson, facilitated Solitaire's ultimate transformation in his Celestial Atlas, creating Noctua, the glorious night owl! When asked why he recreated the constellation, Jamieson explained that he thought it was strange that there was no owl in the heavens, especially "considering the frequency it is met with on all Egyptian monuments."! Afterwards, Noctua persevered, riding the Hydra's tail on all later maps until it was rejected by the International Astronomical Union in 1922!" She added.

"What about their Animarius friends?" Mephoatzel asked Ibiscus. "I recognize them, those three are Toucanick, the Toco Toucan Animarius, Fregatax, the Magnificent Frigatebird Animarius, and Curassock, the Yellow-Knobbed Curassow Animarius!" Ibiscus said. "A what now?" Frida asked in confusion. "Crax Daubentoni, a species from the family Cracidae, which is made up of Chachalacas, Guans, and Currasows, native to Colombia and Venezuela." Lisa said over the comm link. "It is a large, elegant black-and-white turkey-like bird with a prominent curly crest, with both genders having a white belly and white tipped tail, but the male has a larger crest and yellow base to the bill with a large yellow knob whereas the female is faintly barred white on the breast and has dark gray bill lacking the knob! Also, male yellow-knobbed curassows often sings in a "bomb-dropping" descending whistle, sometimes combined with a wing-clapping display or booming, mostly as a mating call! Plus, Currassows and other members of the family Cracidae are closely related to turkeys, peafowls, pheasants, and chickens!" She added.

"Okay, but what about the Frigatebird?" Frida asked. "Fregata Magnificens, or the Magnificent Frigatebird, is a species of seabird from the family Fregatidae, it is the largest species of Frigatebird with an average length of 89-114 Centimeters, and a wingspan of 2.17-2.44 meters." Lisa explained. "The males are well recognized, as they have a striking red gular sac, which is an area of featherless skin on birds that joins the lower mandible of the beak to the bird's neck, which they inflate like a balloon in order to attract a mate, while the females are slightly larger than the males and only have a white breast and belly without a gular sack!" She added. "Is that what that weird thing is?" Frida asked, noticing said part on Currosack's neck. "Correct! It's something that all male Frigatebirds have once they reach sexual maturity!" Lisa answered. "It may look weird to you, but to female Frigatebirds, it's like a set of 6-pack abdominals." She said. "Can't argue with that!" Frida noted with a shrug. "And of course, the Ramphastos Toco, or Toco Toucan is the largest and most recognizable of the 43 members of the family Ramphastidae." Lisa said.

"Heck, they are also the best-represented species of toucan on the internet, internationally and within Brazil!" She added. "Unfortunately, in this day and age, Toco Toucans are hunted for their meat and for the pet trade, especially since the large flocks it forms after the breeding season were previously known to be hunted heavily for meat, with their bills being kept as souvenirs!" Lisa said. "Yikes!" Frida said. "Officially, they're still on the 'Least Concern' conservation status, meaning they're still plentiful, but their population is decreasing, tragic, but true." Lisa said. At that moment, the three Bird Animarius soldiers went and approached Ibiscus with their weapons out. "I'm not afraid to fight my own kind!" Ibiscus said, taking a fighting stance. That's when Toucanick went towards Ibiscus first. "Ibiscus, listen to us, General Aquilis asked us to tell you something she was unable to before you defected." Toucanick whispered as Ibiscus blocked his Tepoztopli.

"Huh?" Ibiscus exclaimed in confusion. Currasock then took a swing with his Quauhololi before whispering in Ibiscus' ear the details of Operation Trade Winds. That made Ibiscus gasp in shock. "Who else knows about this?" Ibiscus asked as Fregatax fired an arrow, but Ibiscus flew dodging it, allowing Fregatax to whisper in his ear. "Seriously?" Ibiscus asked in shock. "She's entrusted the main trigger with Tytus and the trigger for a small scale operation version with Maggipie on Straya." Currosack explained. "She's entrusted the main trigger with Tytus and the trigger for a small scale operation version with Maggiepie on Straya." Currosack explained. "Wait, Maggiepie? Since when she was ever on Straya?" Ibiscus asked in confusion. "King Draco sent a bunch of new soldiers over there recently." Toucanick explained. That made Ibiscus shiver in fright. "But the point is that Aquilis is planning something big, and we're all supporting her, I assume we can say the same about you?" Fregatax asked.

"Consider that done!" Ibiscus replied. As this was going on, the others were fighting Akuji and the Zodiarts. While Akuji was attacking with by shooting with his Cortes Damashii form's Arquebus and slashing with his form's Espada Ropera, Tucana was attacking with her large beak, Gallus with the sharp spurs on his legs like real Roosters would do, Aquila with his metallic wings and talons, and Noctua with just his talons. "Does anyone have any ideas on how to deal with these guys?" Frida asked. "Maybe I should gas them!" CJ suggested before turning around and farted directly on Noctua's face. Unfortunately, the latter laughed as the gas had no effect on him. "Don't you know that Owls don't have a sense of smell?" Noctua asked smugly. "Maybe I should gas them!" CJ suggested before turning around and farted directly on Noctua's face. Unfortunately, the latter laughed as the gas had no effect on him. "Don't you know that Owls don't have a sense of smell?" Noctua asked smugly. Except for Tucana, who wasn't effected either. "Yeah, Toucans don't have a sense of smell either!" Tucana said. "Ay Chihuahua! What do you eat?!" Frida asked in horror.

"Aside from that guacamole I ate earlier, I also eat tamales, tacos, burritos, and other Mexican foods, sometimes including hot sauce!" CJ answered. "Ugh! That Explains The Spiciness In The Gas!" Frida complained. "Tell me about it, until recently Magni and I shared a bedroom with those two!" Carl said. "Yeah! I'm glad that both of our girlfriends decided to let us sleep with them in their bedroom!" Magni noted. This made Yui and Kitsunagakiri chuckle. "Aw! Kawaii!" Magine said upon hearing that. "Arigato, Magine-sempai!" Yui said before the Aurora Breaker sent out a Maser blast at the skeletal El Mal Verde. However, El Mal Verde simply reflected that back at LuchaKaiser with his robotic right arm. "You're going to have to try harder than that!" El Mal Verde said. "Dang it! Why couldn't he have stayed dead?!" Carl said in frustration before realizing something. "Wait a minute, Axolota, put Eury on the comm link!" Carl said.

"On It!" Axolota replied through the comm link. "You called?" Euryzinophis asked. "Eury, you're the Alebrije of Death, right?" Carl asked. "Correct." Euryzinophis said. "What does that mean you can do ability wise on your own?" Carl asked. "Well, for one thing, I can have an undead being's immortality and regeneration abilities rendered null and void with my Therizinosaurus claws!" Euryzinophis said. "Perfect! We're dealing with the reanimated skeleton of a monster who exploded after Aurachnid bit him, bur was brought back by a crazy skeleton lady with a magic guitar, can that power do anything against it?" Carl asked. "It depends. How big is this reanimated monster skeleton you've mentioned?" Euryzinophis asked. "It depends. How big is this reanimated monster skeleton you've mentioned?" Euryzinophis asked. "Plus, he has a huge robotic right arm that ends in a spiked iron mace, and I don't mean the kind that's connected to chains, but rather it thrusts back and forth like a jackhammer!" He added. "Hm, I've never used my powers on something that big before." Euryzinophis admitted as Electraginconia snuggled up to her boyfriend.

"Does that mean that you can't do it?" Carl asked. "I didn't say that." Euryzinophis said. "Seriously, I'm not called a high-tier Alebrije for nothing!" He added. "Your power isn't the only high tiered thing about you." Electraginconia said, playfully batting her eyes. That made Euryzinophis blush a little bit. "Uh, Electraginconia, you do realize I'm on the comm link, and hearing my sister talk like that is a little embarrassing, right?" Cristeiroceros said. "Oh like Amazquirranda doesn't talk like this to you." Electraginconia pointed out. That made Cristeroiceros blush brightly in embarrassment. "Anyway, just open up a portal and I'll show these punks what the Alebrije of Death can do!" Euryzinophys said, spreading his wings menacingly. "You're so hot when you talk like that!" Electraginconia said. "Oh, thanks! You want come along with me?" Euryzinophis asked politely. "Yes please!" Electraginconia said as an Aurora Curtain opened up.

Both high tier Alebrijes flew through the Curtain. At once, they both made it to the battlefield. "Dang, this is pretty crazy!" Electraginconia said as another portal opened up and Emizel and Nagi walked through. "Emizel and Nagi? What are you two doing here?" Euryzinophis asked in confusion. "Fuka called us." Nagi said as Euryzinophis flew up to Emizel's shoulder. "This is perfect, the Alebrije of Death and a Junior Grim Reaper, two embodiments of death should be more than enough to take down I'm guessing to be that thing!" He said, pointing to El Mal Verde. "Whoa! Fuka wasn't kidding about how big he is!" Emizel noted. "You can say that again!" Nagi said. It wasn't long before El Mal Verde stopped and then looked down to notice the Junior Grim Reaper, his girlfriend, and the two high-tier Alebrijes. "Okay, who are you two kids and those creatures?" He asked. "I am Euryzinophis, Alebrije of Death!" Euryzinophis explained.

"I am his girlfriend Electrangiconia, the Alebrije of Life!" Electrangiconia said. "There are Alebrije of life and death?" Jorge asked. "They're amongst the most powerful of the Alebrije...as well as my sister and her boyfriend." Cristeiroceros explained. "That would make a lot of sense, since you both appear have deer motifs, though I wonder why your sister has antlers, since I'm pretty sure that only male deer are supposed have those!" Rodolfo wondered. "The deer that my sister is based on is a Caribou, also known as a Reindeer, which is pretty much the only deer species in which both males and females have antlers!" Cristeroiceros explained. "Whereas I'm an Irish Elk, which sadly is an extinct species." He added. "Oh. Sorry!" Rodolfo apologized. "Yeah." Ciannan said. "As for me, I'm President Death Emizel, a Junior Grim Reaper!" Emizel said. "And I'm his girlfriend, Nagi Clockwork!" Nagi said. "And you..." Emizel said, pointing to Sartana. "Are Sartana of the Dead, I presume." He said.

"And how exactly do you know about me, little boy?" Sartana asked. "Your parents told me all about you." Emizel said. "Apparently, they told me about your whole backstory, about how you got left at the alter by a man named Jorge Rivera, and then flew into a fit of rage to the point of killing one of your sisters, which resulted in you having your wings severed and your remaining goddess powers transferred into a mystic guitar before getting yourself banished to the Land of the Living!" He added. "Dang, Sartana's crazier than I thought!" Manny said. "You said it, Manny!" Frida noted. "But now..." Emizel said, pulling out his scythe while Euryzinophis spread his wings. "...we're here to help take you down, starting with him!" Emizel said, pointing to El Mal Verde. However, El Mal Verde simply laughed at that. "Oh yeah? You and what army? Seriously, I'm several times bigger than ya!" El Mal Verde pointed before laughing again. "You should not underestimate me, I am Euryzinophis, Alebrije of Death, holder of the title of High Tier Alebrije!" Euryzinophis said as Electraginconia fanned herself frantically due to how her boyfriend was talking.

"And while I'm a Junior Grim Reaper, I'm far more powerful than I appear to be!" Emizel declared with his scythe held upwards. "Prove it!" El Mal Verde said, firing his hand at the two. However, they both quickly dodged the attack before they could get hit. Euryzinophis then fired a red beam from his eyes at the hand which caused it to start changing color, traveling all the way up to El Mal Verde's shoulder before it turned to dust! "*GASP!* MY METAL RIGHT ARM! What did you do?!" El Mal Verde asked in shock and anger. "My powers over death aren't limited to organic beings, for inorganic things such as your arm, I can turn to dust at will." Euryzinophis said. "Wait , since when does metal turn into dust?" Lynn asked in confusion. "There are some things we're probably better off not questioning." Lisa said. El Mal Verde then growled angrily at the Alebrije of Death. "You're Gonna Pay For That!" He angrily declared before using his remaining skeletal left arm in an attempt to grab him, only for Euryzinophis to effectively dodge him and then fired his red eye beams again, this time at El Mal Verde's belt buckle, causing it to turn into dust, which resulted in the giant skeleton's pants to fall down and expose his pink underwear. This made Jorge start laughing.

Heck, it made everyone, both heroes and villains alike, laugh at El Mal Verde's choice of underwear. "I know what it's like, but for some reason, I can't help but laugh." Yui said, struggling to keep her composure. "~El Mal Verde, we declare, we can see your underwear!~" Manny and Frida went in singsong tone before laughing again. "THEY WERE A GIFT!" El Mal Verde yelled in anger and embarrassment. He then tried to squash Manny and Frida with his remaining left arm. However, Bobby was able to stop the fist and using his strength, toss El Mal Verde into the Alebrije Monster. "Hey!" El Mal Verde complained. "Nice! My turn! Soul Reaper!" Emizel said before he then summoned a black spell seal that shot out a black mist at El Mal Verde that hit the giant skeleton with a skull-like projection that stunned him long enough for Emizel to charge towards him and slash him at his midsection with his scythe. However, El Mal Verde was barley damaged from the attack. "That's all you've got?" El Mal Verde asked. "No, but thanks for asking! Grim Specter!" Emizel shouted as he then had his face magically change into a skull with two huge horns before he jumped high into the sky and charged up a dark laser with his horns and then fired said laser at El Mal Verde. However, while he was more visibly damaged than usual, El Mal Verde was still intact. "If that's your best shot, than you're not as powerful as you claim to be, kid!" El Mal Verde said before laughing. "Okay, so you're more durable than I have thought, I'll admit that! But, that attack I've just used on you is actually the second most powerful one! Now, it's time for me to reveal my true power! Delta of Death!" Emizel shouted as he then summons a magic seal portal and teleports through it as he transforms into a giant jester-like demon with his face being fully shadowed and showing nothing but red glowing eyes while his cloak now having a pair of large liliripes ending in golden jinglebells and a long bone tail appearing from his rear end. Then, Emizel's scythe levitates by itself and spins around, creating 3 magic seals representing Fire, Ice and Wind in an upwards triangular formation, with the red fire seal at the left, the blue ice seal at the right, and the green wind seal at the top. After that, El Mal Verde was hit with a vortex of fire from the fire seal, followed by wind from the wind seal, and finally ice from the ice seal, which freezed El Mal Verde in a huge block of ice, right before the ice shattered, causing El Mal Verde to get blown to smithereens as Emizel went and returned to his normal form. "Dang girl, your boyfriend is a beast!" Electrangiconia told Nagi. "Yours isn't too bad himself!" Nagi said. "*Chuckle!* So true!" Electrangiconia said as Emizel approached the remains of El Mal Verde. "Okay, then, now, in the name of Death Emizel, I hereby sunder thy soul from this life!" Emizel declared as he then swung his scythe at the remains of El Mal Verde all at once, causing them to magically turn into a giant glowing green etheral orb that simply floated in the air. "Okay, good news, El Mal Verde is now reduced to nothing but his Soul! Bad news, he's clearly way too big to fit into my any of my pockets!" Emizel said.

"Then there's the problem with the Prinny Making Kit." He added. "Prinny Making Kit?" Kairos asked in confusion. "It's what we use to turn souls into Prinnies." Emizel said. "At least in the Afterlife Nexus, that is, since it's usually reserved for sinful souls that were never human to begin with, though it is is capable of converting human souls into Prinnies just as much as the Prinny Factory does in Hades!" He added. "I can open an Aurora Curtain straight to the Afterlife Nexus if you think that could work." Shintomaru suggested. "I guess that's a good idea, but, because of how big his soul is, I don't think that El Mal Verde would get turned into a Prinny, let alone fit into the Prinny Making Kit, even when sentenced for his crimes!" Emizel pointed out. "You guys can figure that out later." Shintomaru said, opening an Aurora Curtain. "Might as well, I guess!" Emizel noted. "You know, maybe my girlfriend could help in this situation!" Kabutocerosteus suggested. "Girlfriend?" Nagi asked. "Paralanusium, Alebrije of Quantum, one of her powers is changing the sizes of objects, she should be able to shrink this guy small enough." Kabutocerosteus said.

"I'd better call Axolota to get her here!" Fuka said before pulling out her phone. Soon, Paralanusium walked through a portal. "Okay, what do you need of me?" Paralanusium asked. "We need you to make this guy's soul small enough to fit in Emizel's pocket." Euryzinophis said. The Alebrije of Quantum then looked around and noticed the huge soul of El Mal Verde. "Oh! That really is a big order! Nothing I can't handle, fortunately!" Paralanusium said before firing a Cerulean beam from her eyes at the giant soul, causing it to shrink down to the size of a golf ball. "Okay, the soul is small enough now! Fare warning, though, the shrinking spell I've used on that soul is only temporary, as it will return to normal after five minutes have passed!" Paralanusium warned. "In other words, have this soul converted into a Prinny before he becomes giant again! Got it!" Emizel said before taking the shrunken down soul of El Mal Verde and placing him into his pocket. "I'll be right back...but can you come with me, just in case?" Emizel asked Paralanusium. "Um, sure?" The Alebrije of Quantum said in confusion.

Before they went through the Aurora Curtain. "So I take it this is the boyfriend you told us about over the phone?" Nagi asked Fuka, referring to Kairos. "Yep! Meet Kairos Sideris, he's from Greece!" Fuka said while pointing at Kairos. "And he's real sensitive about his eight-hay, so ix-nay on that." She whispered in Nagi's ear. "I can hear you and understand Pig Latin, you know!" Kairos said in slight annoyance, making Fuka flinch a little bit. "But she's right, I do have a slight anger issue, especially if people mistake my younger, yet taller, sister for the older of the two of us." He admitted. "Huh?!" Nagi exclaimed in confusion. "Long story short, the reason for Kairos's younger sister Adara being taller than him despite the fact that she's really ten years old is because she's actually an early bloomer, since she started puberty at age seven, even gained D-Cups at that age too! As for my boyfriend, well, he's the exact opposite, a late bloomer, since he hasn't even started puberty yet, not that I don't mind, which is something that he shares with the men on his father's side of the family!" Fuka explained sheepishly. "It tends to be humiliating at times." Kairos admitted. "But when you ignore his anger issues, he's a great guy, plus he's the reincarnation of Heavenly Saint Chronogel, a powerful Time Magic user, which makes his partnership with Tape here all the more appropriate!" Fuka said.

"Tape?" Nagi asked in confusion. "My full name is Tapemetrosuchus, the Alebrije of Time! Pleasure to meet you!" Tapemetrosuchus said. "Likewise." Nagi said. "Another thing you should know about my boyfriend and his younger sister is they're descendants of an Amazon from their mother's side!" Fuka said. "Oh that's cool." Nagi said. "Of course, that's another reason why my younger sister is taller than me!" Kairos admitted. "Yikes!" Nagi said. "Tell me about it." Kairos said. Just then, Emizel and Paralanusium came back through the Aurora Curtain. "Okay, El Mal Verde is a Prinny now, a rather large one at that." Emizel said. As he said that, a quick flashback started at the Afterlife Court, where Emizel and Paralanusium presented the soul of El Mal Verde to Judge Claudus. "You literally eat heroes?" The deceased Thunderian King asked. "Of course I do! A giant like me has an appetite can't be satisfied with just regular food and drink alone! Besides, what better way to get rid of some meddling superheroes than by eating them so that they don't interfere with my crime sprees anymore!" El Mal Verde said before laughing a little.

"And I thought Mumm-Ra was bad." Claudus muttered. "Well, Mr. Verde, I hope Sardines will make a nice substitution, bring in the Prinny Making Kit!" He ordered. As he said that, a group of Angels brought the Prinny Making Kit into the Court. El Mal Verde was then lead to it. "Okay, what are you doing? What's Going OOOOOONNNNN?!" El Mal Verde asked as the angels placed him in front of the machine and the mechanical hand came alive and picked him before dropping him into the tube of the Prinny-making Kit, causing the rest of the machine to come roaring to life as its gears, pistons, and other mechanical parts started moving and steam starts blowing out of its pipes. After a few minutes, the Prinny-making Kit opened it's doors to reveal El Mal Verde, now in the form of a green Prinny with his signature mustache and goatee beard on the base of his beak, his eyebrows on his yellow eyes, and having both of his arms being Prinny flippers instead of having a mechanical right arm, while wearing his signature black sombrero on top of his head, his white short-sleeved shirt, black vest, dual bullet belts, and horizontal striped brown-and white pants (with a Prinny hammerspace pouch holding them up in place of his belt) on his body, and, strangely enough, black cowboy boots with spurs over his Prinny peg legs. Upon leaving the kit, the green hero-eater-turned-Prinny, got up and stumbled around in disorientation, though his cowboy boots were able keep him better balanced than other Prinnies and prevented him from tripping over. "Whoa! What a ride, man! Why do I feel so weird?" El Mal Verde asked while disoriented as a mirror appeared from the Prinny-making Kit's exit point and was placed right in front of him, making him gasp in shock.

"WHAT?! I Look Like Some Sort Of Bat-Winged Penguin With A Fanny Pack?!" El Mal Verde asked in shock before noticing his arms are now flippers. "And My Right Limb Matches My Left One?!" He asked before noticing his body size. "Aw, Man! I'm The Size Of A Kid-Sized Plush Toy! I wish I was a giant again!" El Mal Verde complained just before his body suddenly started glowing. "Uh Oh." Paralanusium said in worry. "What's wrong?" Emizel asked. "That's the sign that the shrinking spell I've used on him has worn off!" Paralanusium said, right before El Mal Verde quickly grew into a giant-sized Prinny, much to the latter's relief. "Whew! Well, at least I'm back to my normal size!" El Mal Verde noted before eyeing Judge Claudus with an intent to eat him. "I may not like being a Penguin, but I sure am going to enjoy having a big kitty cat for my next meal!" El Mal Verde said as he reached his left flipper downwards towards Judge Claudus. However, Archangel Virunga came over and, with the help of his fellow Angels, stopped El Verde by restraining him with a dozen spiritual chains. "Hey, let me go!" El Mal Verde said as Virunga dragged him off. "Lord Valvatorez should be surprised with this guy." Virunga said as the flashback ended.

"So, what's going to happen to El Mal Verde now?" Manny asked Emizel in confusion. "Normally after training under Lord Valvatorez, a Prinny is sentenced to servitude under one of the Overlords of the many Netherworlds, but given his size, I don't know what they're going to do." Emizel shrugged. "Since he's a giant, you don't suppose he could be used as a heavy lifter in a construction project or something?" Nagi suggested. "That's up to them to decide." Emizel said. "But, I guess that's not a bad idea! I should give a note on that to Lord Valvatorez when I get the chance!" He noted. "Anyway, Emizel, this is my boyfriend Kairos." Fuka said. "Hello! And before you ask, I'm actually fourteen, the same age as Fuka, not twelve like my appearance would suggest!" Kairos said. "Oh, nice to meet you then! Now I can see why Fuka told me not to bring up your height! If it makes you feel any better, I'm also older than I look! I may appear to be a young thirteen-year-old boy who hasn't even started puberty yet, but I'm actually 1324 years old, due to the demons of Netherspace, which is where I come from, being able to only age one year every one thousand years!" Emizel said, though Kairos wasn't exactly surprised. "Yeah, I'm a fan of "Disgaea" franchise, so I already about your age and about the demons and angels in that franchise being older than they look!" Kairos said.

"And by the way, my sister Adara is a huge shipper of you two." He added. "Wait, what?" Nagi asked in confusion while blushing. "I know, crazy right?" Fuka asked. "I was thinking about bringing her here to meet you two after this whole ordeal is over, if it's okay with you two!" Kairos said. "Okay, I guess that's okay!" Emizel said. "Thanks." Kairos said.

Back With The Others...

Takeru, Makoto, Alain, Isau, Ibiscus, Phoenexus, Frida, and CJ were still fighting against Akuji, Lady Gobbler, Voltura, Zoe, Gallus, Aquila, Noctua, Tucana, Toucanick, Curassock, and Fregatax. Well, actually, Ibiscus, Toucanick, Curassock, and Fregatax were pretending to fight, in order to not draw suspicion as they continued to talk about Aquilis' secret plan. "So, what motivated General Aquilis to create that plan?" Ibiscus asked quietly. "Apparently it started when she learned what Hell's Watchdog did to Kamen Rider Jewel's parents, the fact that her mother was pregnant at the time she didn't learn til later, but you get the idea." Curossack said. "Plus, she resolved to further her plan after King Draco revealed that not only is he really the reincarnation of an evil villain from another universe, but also that he was the one who killed his parents King Ddraig and Queen Tatsuko as well caused his younger brother Prince Tian and his friends Nyeupe and Mobulus to get themselves banished off-planet to who knows where!" Fregatax said, much to Ibiscus's shock. "Tell us about it." Toucanick said as the others were still fighting Mortem and the Zodiarts, with Alain using the Grimm Damashii's retractable pens to attack the foes. "I've heard about the pen being mightier than the sword, but that's just crazy!" Frida said, seeing that. "Well, the Brothers Grimm are writers and authors, so it fits with this form's motif!" Alain said.

"Yeah, good point." Frida said. Isau was then seen fighting against Gallus, who was really good at kicking with his feet and causing damage with his Rooster spurs. "Clearly I'm going to need some backup, and since I'm up against a chicken, I think I know just the ones!" Isau said, pulling out the Zenryoku Zenkai Cannon.

Zenryoku Zenkai Cannon!

He then rotated the central gear until the desired Power is selected, specifically represented by the images of the helmets of Vul Eagle, Red Falcon, Red Hawk, GingaRed, GaoRed, and ZyuohEagle, lighting up on the weapon's left side panel.

Hoero (Barking or Roaring) Beast Power! Dai Zenkai! Bakyun! Dokan!

Before firing and summoning clones of the selected Sentai heroes. "Sugoi! It's like a Super Sentai version of Daiki-sempai's NeoDiendriver!" Sakura said in awe. Thinking about Sakura's comment, Lisa took a close look at the Zenryoku Zenkai Cannon and at the Ouroblade through the comm link. "Hmm..." She said. "You think that these Sentai copies scare me?" Gallus asked while unimpressed. "These clones are of Sentai heroes with Predatory Animals as their motifs, some of them are even predators of chickens!" Isau pointed out. "But, I'm actually a man in the form of a Rooster-themed Zodiarts, not an actual chicken!" Gallus pointed out. "Details, details, what does matter..." Isau said as the clones pulled out their signature bladed weapons. "...Is that you're going down." He said as the clones charged. Gallus then tried blocking their weapons with his Rooster spurs, but they ended up being cut off from his legs. "Uh oh." Gallus said as Aquilis got an idea. "Toucanick, try to get the other Zodiarts and Gallus together, that way, they can take them out at once, but make sure they think you're still fighting." She told the Toucan Animarius through a hidden communicator.

"Got it!" Toucanick replied quietly. Before quietly relaying the message to the others. They then silently nodded in agreement. "Only question is, how?" Curossack asked. As he said that Noctua suddenly swooped behind Phoenexus like a ninja and slashed him at the back with his talons without even making a noise. "What the heck?!" Frida asked in shock. "Owls are capable of flying through the sky without making a noise, it's the main reason Owl Animarius such as Tytus are pretty much always Animari Ninpo users, it seems that the Owl Constellation gives this Zodiarts similar powers." Gorf noted. This made Tytus growl angrily upon seeing Noctua in action. "Calm down, my daughter!" Aquilis said to her adoptive daughter. "Sorry, mother." Tytus said. "My turn! Eagle Tornado Kick!" Aquila announced as he then flew up into the air, spun around in a miniature tornado, and then dived down feet first before striking CJ directly with his talons in a flying spin kick. "I'm okay!" CJ said after hitting the ground.

General Aquilis, on the other hand, shuddered in anger and disgust. "That guy is really reminding me of my no-good brother!" Aquilis noted in disgust. "Yeah, Uncle Haastus never did like how you were made Bird Army Leader, or that you, an Eagle Animarius adopted me, an Owl one." Tytus said bitterly. "Not to mention how mad he was when he lost to you in that duel he challenged you to!" She added. "True." Aquilis noted. "Let's hope I don't have to bring him back to life, though!" She added. "Please don't, even if you did, I doubt he'd listen to you about anything, and I seriously doubt he'd be onboard with what we're planning, in fact he'd probably sell us out the second we explained everything!" Tytus said. "Very good call!" Aquilis noted. Phoenexus meanwhile, was soon surrounded by flames as he managed to force Noctua off him, while also leaving flames on the Owl Zodiarts body. "HOT, HOT, HOT!" Noctua yelled in pain. "*Snicker!* And I thought Owls go 'Hoot, Hoot, Hoot!" Frida joked, to which Manny laughed at. "Good one, Frida!" Manny said. "I have an idea, toss me into Aquila, that should knock us into Noctua, Gallus and Tucana, then take this chance!" Toucanick told Ibiscus.

"Understood!" Ibiscus said quietly. Before doing as instructed. That caused Toucanick, Fregatax, and Curassock to get sent flying towards Aquila, Noctua, Gallus, and Tucana, knocking the four Bird Zodiarts down. "Quick, take this chance!" Ibiscus told Isau. "Got it!" Isau replied. Before triggering the Zenryoku Zenkai Cannon's finisher.

Zenkai! Zenkai! Dai Dai Dai Zenkai! Ba-Ba-Ba-Ban! Do-Do-Do-Don!

That's when the weapon died out energy manifestations of any of the past 45 Red Rangers' helmets that gathered into a circular formation before merging into a giant Hakaizer helmet that, after the three Bird Animarius soldiers managed to dodge out of the way, hit the four Bird Zodiarts and caused them to explode. Causing their Zodiarts Switches to roll up to everyone's feet. Frida picked up one while Isau, CJ, and Phoenexus picked up the other three. "What are we supposed to do with these things?" Frida asked in confusion. "Just hit the button on top and toss them aside!" Ryusei instructed. "Oh! Okay!" Frida said she, CJ, Isau, and Phoenexus pressed the Zodiarts Switches and tossed them away before said disappeared into thin air. At the same time, the smoke cleared to reveal the four Bird Zodiarts were actually three men and one woman. "Well, well, well, what have we here? Adler Torno, Azio Nightwalker, Cockburn Accardo, and Touca Flores, these four are on Interpol's most wanted list for bird smuggling, and in Mr Accardo's case, running illegal cockfights!" Ryusei said in disgust.

"Uh, what was that last part?" Frida asked in confusion. "The better terminology would be rooster fights, which would be where people put two roosters in a circle or handmade fighting ring so they would be forced to fight against each other, usually to the death, while crowds of people watching said fights often bet their money on whichever rooster wins the fight!" Lisa explained. "It's disgusting and for obvious reasons, extremely illegal." She added. That made everyone, including Toucanick, Curassock, and Fregatax, gasp in shock and disgust. Lana then approached Cockburn and punched him in the face twice, leaving both his eyes black! "MY EYES!" Cockburn yelled in pain while covering his eyes. "What about those three?" Frida asked, pointing at Adler, Azio, and Touca. "From what I'm reading from their auras, Adler is known for smuggling Eagles as well as stealing their eggs and sometimes eating those that are unable to hatch, Azio is known for smuggling Owls and their feathers, and Touca is known for not only smuggling Toucans, but also eating some that she personally hunts for sport!" Aya said upon reading the auras of Adler, Azio, and Touca, much to the anger and disgust of not only Lana, but also the Bird Animarius soldiers, who all glared at them.

"You steal Eagle eggs and eat those that can't hatch?!" Curassock asked angrily before whacking Adler at the crotch with his Quauhololi. "You steal feathers from Owls?!" Fregatax asked angrily before whacking Azio upside the head with his bow. "And you have the audacity to eat Toucans, even though you use a Toucan as your Zodiarts form?!" Toucanick asked angrily before punching Touca in the face. Aquilis got an idea. "Join the riders' side." She whispered to the three through the hidden communicators. The three Bird Animarius soldiers then silently nodded in agreement to her orders. Before Fregatax strung an arrow in his bow and let it loose, causing it to sail through several Neo-Lizardons and Dustards! This made King Draco and the rest of the Generals gasp in shock and outrage. Save for Aquilis who slyly smirked. "Oh, come on! More Traitors?!" Goliathus asked in complaint. "Well, either way..." Shintomaru said, opening an Aurora Curtain, allowing Ryusei to toss the defeated Zodiarts inside. "You still got us to deal with!" Zoe reminded as she, her mother, and her grandmother swooped towards the heroes. "Oh, come on!" Frida complained.

Meanwhile...

Manny, Maria, Lynn, Aquene, Andros, Phixia, Mormyron, Gracilus, Buendejo, Thalassodreg, Deltadrome, Carcharodontos, Sento, W, Ryu, Shinnosuke, Go, Silver Sombrero, Cosmic Cleopatra, The Industrialist, El Cucharon, the Iron Pinata, Gordo Gordo, and the Golden Eagle Twins were all up against Django, Chakal, Stephano, General Leo (who's still angry at his children), Saturn V, Hogarito, Schrödinger, Machina Electrica, Pugna Volta, Cancer Minor, Taurus Poniatovii, Lambeon, Gorgos, Quetzalcoatlord, and Maldejo. "At least none of these guys have figured out how to make Roidmudes, am I right, Shinn-niisan?" Go asked. "I hope so! You people haven't actually made any new Roidmudes, have you?" Shinnosuke asked the Zodiarts present, to which they shook their heads and said "No!". "We decided that the Roidmudes a little too dangerous and uncontrollable to be of any use to us, especially if they decide to turn on us when given the chance, so we obviously chose not to do any research on them!" Saturn V said. "That's a relief." Belt-san said.

"Roidmudes?" Manny asked in confusion. "The enemies they faced." Shintomaru said, pointing to Shinnosuke and Go. "They're artificial mechanical lifeforms that are capable of an ability known as Jūkasoku or Heavy Acceleration, which creates a temporal field that distorts time and reduces G-force for everything within it, making everything and everyone slow down except for the Roidmudes themselves!" He added. "Yikes!" Manny said. "Tell us about it." Shinnosuke said. "So, what kind of Dinosaurs am I looking at?" Manny asked, referring to Lambeon, Gorgos, and Quetzalcoatlord. "Looks like a Lambeosaurus, which was an herbivorous Hadrosaur from the late Cretaceous Era, a Gorgosaurus, which was a Tyrannosaurid Theropod. also from the late Cretaceous, and a Quetzalcoatlus, which was the largest of the Pterosaurs, from the Maastrichtian Age of the Cretaceous Era." Lisa explained. "The latter of which just so happening to be named directly after Quetzalcoatl, the Aztec Feathered Serpent God!" She added. "How big were they?" Manny asked. "Anywhere between the Pigeon sized 18 inch wingspan to the ultralight airplane 36-39 feet wingspan." Lisa said.

"Looks like that guy over there is in between the two sizes!" Lynn joked with a snicker, much to Quetzalcoatlord's offense. "Well, at least I'm not a shortstack like you!" Quetzalcoatlord retorted, causing Lynn to pause at that. "Excuse me? Shortstack? What does that even mean?" Lynn asked in confusion. "Yeah, well, you're well-endowed for a human female, yet you're short for your age, that's why I'm calling you a shortstack!" Quetzalcoatlord said, causing Gorgos and Lambeon to laugh hysterically. "Oh, that's a good one, Quetzalcoatlord!" Gorgos said while laughing. "Yeah! Very good one!" Lambeon said while laughing, causing Lynn to start twitching her right eye angrily. "Oh, It! Is! On!" Lynn declared angrily. "Uh oh." Lincoln said as he and his other sisters backed up nervously. "What's wrong?" Jorge asked. "Lola isn't the only incredibly strong member of my family, Lynn for example once held up all 13 of us as we dangled off a cliff using only her index finger!" Lori explained. "Combine that with the fact she's an athlete, tends to be a sore loser, and worse winner..." Lincoln said as Lynn grabbed the three dinosaur Animarius. "It's hard to tell who's scarier when angry, her or Lola." Lincoln said as Lynn started beating them down!

(Cue rock music similar to the beginning tune of Kenny Loggin's "Danger Zone", as heard in the "Bordertown" cartoon episode "Santa Ana Winds"!)

Specifically by simultaneously punching the three Dinosaur Animarius in their faces (which caused a tooth to get knocked off Gorgos's mouth), kicking Lambeon hard in the crotch before grabbing him by the tail and then repeatingly smacking him down on the floor, hitting Gorgos's left leg with enough force to break it (which made him yell "OW! MY LEG!" in agony) before headbutting him in the gut, grabbing Quetzalcoatlord by his neck and tossing him over her shoulder before jumping up and elbowing him hard enough on his spine to crack his back, and finally then knocking them all down with her feet as the music has ended. "Take That, You Dino-Jerks!" Lynn yelled as the three Dinosaur Animarius soldiers all groaned in pain and agony. Everyone winced at Lynn's brutality. "Yep! She has really taken those dino dudes to the cleaners!" Luna said. "You can say that again." Lincoln said. "No More! We Give Up!" The three Dinosaur Animarius soldiers pleaded in agony.

Tyrannus facepalmed at this. "You really mean it?" Lynn asked. "Yes, just please don't hurt us anymore!" They begged. "Well then, why don't you let me just put you three out of your misery?" Stephano asked, approaching the three. "Uh Oh!" Lambeon, Gorgos, and Quetzalcoatlord said in fright, realizing what Stephano is going to do to them. "Hey, back off, man! They said they give up!" Lynn said while blocking Stephano's path. "You don't scare me, girlie, worse people than you tried to intimidate me in my past life, and they all met the same fate as his family." Stephano said, pointing to Ryu. That Ryu made growl angrily. "Oh yeah? We'll see about that!" Lynn declared charging towards Stephano and tried to punch him, only for the latter to dodge and weave against her attacks very efficiently. "Quick, Shin-kun, take advantage of this distraction by opening up an Aurora Curtain and taking them to our base, the healing pod will take things from there!" Sakura whispered to Shintomaru.

"Got it!" Shintomaru replied. Before rushing over to the three of them, allowing an Aurora Curtain to wash over them, transporting the four of them to the Riders' base. "Huh? Where are we?" Lambeon asked in confusion as he, Gorgos, and Quetzalcoatlord noticed that they were in the Rider's base. "Our base, 2,000 meters below the surface of the Earth, Sakura-chan asked me to bring you three here, so you can heal." Shintomaru said, pointing to three healing pods. "Are those Healing Pods? Where'd you get those from?" Gorgos asked in confusion. "One was obtained by Sakura-chan's ancestor when he raided your guys' castle after sealing everyone in a stone tablet, the others were built by Lisa-chan with Toadus-san and Gorf-san's help." Shintomaru explained. That took the three Dinosaur Animarius soldiers by surprise. "Unlike those guys you were working for, we aren't heartless, so we're letting you use the pods and join our side, especially since there's no way the Empire or anyone affiliated with it will be too happy to see you again after surrendering, so we're giving you three options, you can either move into Toadus and Gorf's hideout, the exact location and how to access it only we and our trusted allies know, move to the temple the Lucharangers use as their base which is protected by a magic barrier that prevents the likes of the empire and the Lucharangers' enemies from finding, or move to a cave in Japan which is near a Shinto Shrine my cousin studies at, where you will be given jobs and disguises." Shintomaru explained.

"I think we should take the second option!" Quetzalcoatlord said. "No problem." Shintomaru said, opening another Curtain. "I need to get back to the others, but for now, just climb into the pods, and you'll be fine in a couple of hours." Shintomaru said. "Thank you!" Lambeon said. "Uh, I might need help getting into one of the Pods, on the account that my left leg is broken and all" Gorgos said, pointing at his broken left leg. Shintomaru winced. "Ooh, hold that thought." He said, peeking through the curtain. "Hey, Lynn-neechan broke Gorgos-san's leg, and he needs help getting into the pod." Shintomaru told his friends. That made them groan in complaint. "I'll help." Bobby said, climbing into the Aurora Curtain. He then carefully picked up Gorgos without aggravating his injury. "Yeah, that leg looks broken, alright." He said. "Looks like Lynn wasn't holding back her own monstrous strength!" Kabutocerosteus noted. "No she is not." Shintomaru said as Bobby gently laid Gorgos into a pod. "Thank You!" Gorgos said.

Back with the others...

Lynn was still fighting against Stephano. Who simply yawned. "You're not even close to being worth my time!" Stephano taunted. He then went and grabbed Lynn by both her arms and legs before he then gave her the infamous Bane Drop, by letting her go before he raised his knee upwards and struck the middle of her spine very hard. "*SHRIEK!* MY BACK!" Lynn yelled in pain as she fell onto the floor. "Pathe-" Stephano started saying only to be cut off when a whole pepperoni pizza hit his helmet. "Who threw a whole pepperoni pizza?" Manny asked in confusion. "That would be me! I had Donnie install some pizza storage units in the backs of our Ultra Armors, in case we get hungry! In this case, I've improvised and found another use for it!" Mikey said, just as Stephano started twitching angrily upon hearing that. "Did I... Hear this... Right? You... Threw... A Pizza... At Me?!" Stephano asked angrily. "Yep! Why? Don't like pizza?" Mikey asked with a chuckle. "Don't like it? Don't like it? I HATE PIZZZA! It's the greasiest, most unhealthiest food in existence! I wouldn't eat it, even if were the last manmade food on the planet!" Stephano shouted angrily.

That made Mikey gasp in shock and outrage. "Dude! That's pure blasphemy!" Mikey said in offense. "Oh, shut up! You Ninja Turtles are so popular, that you're practically pizza-selling icons, that makes me hate pizza even more!" Stephano declared angrily while his weather powers started acting up. "Well let's see how you like this!" Mikey said, firing Pizzas rapid fire at Stephano, covering him in gooey cheesy goodness! Edge, Azalee, Aden, Manny, and Frida couldn't help but laugh at that. Stephano grumbled angrily.

Weather Attack, Scorching Sun!

This caused his left arm to be covered in solar flames, which were hot enough to burn all of the pizza mess to a burnt crisp and allow him to free himself. "What a waste of perfectly good pizza!" Azalee complained. "Now you've gone and done it! This Means War!" Stephano declared as he then twisted the right handle on his Driver four times.

Weather Attack, Blistering Tornado!

He then unleashed a human-sized tornado from his left fist straight at Mikey. Fortunately, Mikey jumped out of the way, only for the tornado to hit the Ninja Dopant instead! "HEY! You're not supposed to attack me!" The Ninja Dopant complained while spinning in midair, making Stephano rather sheepish. "Whoops! Hit the wrong target there!" Stephano said in embarrassment. "Hah! You missed me!" Mikey taunted. "Hey you, shut up!" Stephano said. He then twisted the right handle on his driver three times.

Weather Attack, Severe Lightning!

He then had his left leg charged up with electricity before he then charged towards Mikey with lightning speed and struck him in the torso with an electrified kick. "I'm okay!" Mikey said wearily after crashing. "How about you take me, now?" Ryu asked, readying his sword. Stephano then drew out a sword of his own before he and Ryu charged towards each other and clashed blades. While this was going on, the others were still fighting the Zodiarts. "Okay, what kind of Zodiarts are you guys?" Gentaro asked. "I'm Cancer Minor, and these guys are Taurus Poniatovii, Machina Electrica, Pugna Volta, Saturn V, and Schrödinger!" Cancer Minor said while introducing the rest of the Zodiarts present. The mention of the words Cancer and Taurus caught Gentarou and Ryusei's attention. "Nani?!" They both asked in shock and confusion. "Something wrong?" Manny asked. "Cancer and Taurus were two of the constellations that served as the motifs for two of the Horoscopes, high tiered Zodiarts who's motifs are derived from the 12 Constellations of the Western Zodiac!" Ryusei explained. "Fortunately, Cancer Minor and Taurus Poniatovii are both obsolete constellations, with the former being composed from a few stars in Gemini adjacent to Cancer, and also mostly depicted as a small lobster or shrimp despite being called the Lesser Crab Constellation, while the latter, which means 'Poniatowski's bull', was a constellation created by the former rector of Vilnius University, Marcin Odlanicki Poczobutt, in 1777 to honor Stanislaus Poniatowski, King of Poland and Grand Duke of Lithuania, since the Poniatowski family's crest has the image of a red bull." Lisa said. "Unfortunately, Saturn V is a Gamma-Ray Constellation." She added. "Saturn V?! As in the retired American rocket developed by NASA under the Apollo program for human exploration of the Moon?!" Ryusei asked in shock.

"That's the one." Lisa said. "Must be quite a popular rocket to get it's own constellation!" Manny noted. "Our friend Yuki can attest to that. Seriously, she loves space so much that she even wrote a song about the Japanese Sattelite Hayabusa." Gentarou said. "Speaking of satellites, the Fermi Satellite, which is what allowed scientists to discover Gamma-Ray sources in space to create the Gamma-Ray Constellations, also has it's own Gamma-Ray Constellation included among the others!" Lisa informed. "What about the Zombie Cat thing and the other guy?" Manny asked, pointing to Schrodinger and Hogarito. "The latter one is Hogarito, a Hoga Animarius!" Gorf said. "And what's a Hoga?" Aquene asked in confusion. "It's a mythical fish from Mexican folklore, said to reside in Lake Texcoco! It's described as having a head and ears very like those of a hog, the body size of a seal or porpoise, and having five half-foot-long barbels around its mouth! When swimming it seems to change color from red to yellow to green like a chameleon! Plus, despite being a fish, it gives birth to live young like a whale does! As for their diet, Hogas are omnivorous, since they live close to the shore where they feed on the leaves of the hoga tree, but are highly aggressive, being as dangerous as the velachif, and will kill and eat animals larger than them, including people, which is why they are hunted relentlessly by both the natives of Tenochtitlan and the Spaniards! On a side note, it's said that a Hoga's flesh is delicious and tastes like albacore!" Lisa explained.

"Which for those of you that don't know, is a species of Tuna." She added. "Yeah, I really don't like the idea of eating Tuna of any species, especially the ones that are in the near threatened status!" Aquene said in disgust. "As for the Zombie Cat, based on the name and patterns, it would appear to be based off the Gamma-Ray Constellation patterned after the infamous thought experiment Schrodinger's Cat, where you are given a closed box containing a cat and some poison, but you don't know if the cat is alive or not until you open the box." Lisa noted. "Excuse Me?!" Lana asked angrily. "It's meant to illustrate a paradox of Quantum Superposition. It wasn't even a real experiment, not part of any scientific theory, Erwin Schrodinger simply created it as a teaching tool to illustrate how some people were misinterpreting Quantum Theory." Lisa said. "Really?" Paralanusium asked in surprise. "Pretty much." Lisa said. "I didn't understand a word of that explanation." Manny said.

"Me neither!" Frida said. "Simpletons." Lisa muttered. "Well, excuse us!" Manny and Frida said in offense to that remark. "Deal with bad guys first, argue later!" Gentaro said, pulling out the Cosmic Switch while W summoned the Xtreme Memory, Phillip's body already onboard, and Ryu pulled out the Trial Memory. "Right, Sorry!" Manny and Frida apologized as the three veteran Riders inserted their devices!

Cosmic! Cosmic On!
Xtreme!
Trial!

Allowing them to enter their final forms as Gentaro and W pulled out the Barizun Sword and Prism Bicker while Ryu took on a running stance. "Cool swords!" Frida said upon seeing the signature weapons of W CycloneJokerXtreme and Fourze Cosmic States. "Arigato!" Gentaro said. "That means 'Thank You' in Japanese!" Phillip said. "You don't scare us! My shell is impenetrable!" Cancer Minor declared. "Funny, the Cancer Horoscope thought so too, before I took him down!" Ryusei pointed out, pointing the Meteor Storm Shaft at the Crab Constellation Knockoff Zodiarts. "Wait, seriously?!" Cancer Minor asked in shock. "Indeed, care to find out how?" Ryusei asked, placing the Meteor Storm Switch on the shaft and loading the hand rubber puller in.

(Rock music) Limit Break! (Power-up based standby noise) OK!

"Meteor Storm Punisher!" Ryusei announced as he then unleashed the Storm Topper from his weapon, which then spun towards Cancer Minor like a Beyblade. Despite his best efforts, Cancer Minor was beat up in the same way as the Cancer Horoscope, with his arms and legs being severed. "No! Foundation X Zodiarts are supposed to be superior to Gamou's! I can't meet the same fate!" Cancer Minor said before the Storm Topper slammed into his body, causing him to explode before the Topper returned to Ryusei. "Nice one! Quick question though, is that supposed to happen?" Frida said, causing Ryusei to turn around to see what she was talking about. "Nani?!" Ryusei asked in shock as the explosion suddenly reversed itself, revealing Cancer Minor as one of the stars on his body started glowing brightly. "Masaka!" Ryusei said in realization. "He's acting the same way the Pegasus Zodiarts did before he-" Gentarou said in realization. "Oh no." They both said. "Send Cancer Minor's human body over, I have a feeling something good is about to happen!" Baihu told Foundation X Zodiarts Division HQ through a communicator. "At once, General Baihu!" A female voice answered back. At once, a human body, which appeared to be that of a man in his early 20's, wrapped in white string was brought through a portal on a stretcher by a Dustard. "Don't let him do what I think he's about to do!" Ryusei said. "I don't think so!" Pugna Volta said as he then zipped behind Ryusei and Gentaro before grabbing them both with his electricity-formed arms, causing both veteran Riders to get electrocuted.

"Thanks, Pugna Volta!" Baihou said, hefting the body over his shoulder and approaching Cancer Minor before tossing the human body onto the Zodiarts and backing up. "Yabei!" Gentarou, Ryusei, and Shintomaru said in realization. That's when Cancer Minor shed his original form like a real crab would do, which caused said body to dissolve into stardust, and then emerged into the very familiar form of the Cancer Horoscope Zodiarts, with the difference being that his new form is primarily gold instead of red, has a black 'X' on the center of his chest, and also has the Zodiac symbol for Cancer ( ) in the center of said 'X'. "He evolved into the Cancer Horoscope!" Gentarou said in shock. "But, Golden?" Ryusei said in confusion. At that moment, the newly evolved Cancer Zodiarts looked at his new form in astonishment. Before laughing maniacally.

"Oh, this is perfect! I've got a bigger left claw than I had as Cancer Minor, and what's this? I'm all golden instead of red like the original Cancer Zodiarts, and I've got an 'X' on my torso with the Cancer Zodiac symbol in the middle of it, not to mention I feel more powerful than before! Thanks a lot, Meteor! Because of you, I've finally evolved into a Horoscope!" Cancer said while taunting Ryusei. "This is bad, if Cancer could be Revived, chances are so can the other 11!" Shintomaru said. "But who is this guy's real identity anyways, and what's with the gold coloration?" Gentaro asked as Aya read the Cancer Zodiarts's aura. "Apparently, the guy's real name is Karkinos Kanizawa, a half-Japanese/half-Greek international criminal known for sabotaging seafood restaurants and stealing their food, mostly crabs and other Crustaceans, so that he would sell them illegally in the Black Market! As for the gold coloration, I think it indicates that he's actually more powerful than the original Cancer Zodiarts!" Aya said. "As if the original wasn't enough of a pain in the neck!" Ryusei said.

"And who was the original Cancer Zodiarts?" Lincoln asked in confusion. "An Amanogawa High Student named Kijima Natsuji. He was originally the Pegasus Zodiarts, wanting to frame a teacher after she confiscated his Rakugo fan by attacking people with a style that's exactly like her own kickboxing technique, but soon evolved into the original Cancer Zodiarts." Gentaro explained. "Let me tell you, that guy's heart was like a black hole, if you know what I mean!" Ryusei said. "Seriously. for his last plan, he stole students souls, which took the forms of rings, and made them try to entertain him, if they failed, he would take his claw and snip the souls, making them fall unconscious!" Gentarou said. That made everyone gasp in shock and appall. "And don't get us started on Aries or Taurus." Ryusei said, clear venom in his voice as he said the Ram Constellation Zodiarts' name. "What's up with him?" Manny asked in confusion. "He was obsessed with finding the Aries Horoscope who's powers could wake his best friend from a coma he entered after activating a malfunctioning Zodiarts Switch." Shintomaru explained.

"How did that work out?" Frida asked. "Aries ended up agreeing to use his powers...on the condition that Ryusei 'take out' Gentaro, if you know what I'm saying." Shintomaru said. "Wait a second, you mean, he had to kill him?!" Manny asked in shock. "Yeah, and he was that desperate!" Shintomaru said, causing Ryusei to hang his head in shame. "Fortunately, with the help of their friends, Gentarou came back to life, unlocked CosmicStates, and finished off Aries once and for all." He explained. "That would explain why he's still alive!" Frida noted. "Yes, well, either way, I need to get back to HQ and see what I can do now before I fight you guys again, until then!" Cancer said, jumping into the portal. "Dang It!" Aquene complained. "You still have us to deal with!" Taurus Poniatovii declared before making a loud bull sound and charging. "I don't think so!" Phillip and Shotaro declared, loading some Memories into the Prism Bicker.

Prism!
Cyclone, Maximum Drive!
Laser, Maximum Drive!
Luna, Maximum Drive!
Joker, Maximum Drive!

"Toro, Toro!" Phillip called as W waved the Prism Bicker like a Matador would his cape. Taurus Poniatovii charged, only for W to swiftly strike him with the Prism Bicker's blade. "Ole!" Phillip declared as the Bull Constellation Knockoff Zodiarts exploded. "Nice!" Manny exclaimed, right before he realized that something was wrong again. Just like with Cancer Minor, the explosion reverted! "Uh Oh! Guys, it's happening again!" Manny said as everyone saw Taurus Poniatovii with all damage on him undone as one of the stars on his body glowed brightly. "Quick, retrieve his body!" Baihu told the Dustard from before. It then bowed down before returning to the portal. Returning shortly after with another body on a stretcher. Specifically that of a Polish man in his early 20's. "Okay, what's with the bodies?" Frida asked. "In order for a Zodiarts to evolve into a Horoscope, they need to push past their switches 'Last One' phase, where upon activation, their human body is separated from their Zodiarts one." Gentarou explained. "Seriously?! I've heard of an 'Out of Body Experience', but this is ridiculous!" Manny said in shock. "Tell it to Gamou, who created the first switches!" Bahu said, tossing the body onto the Taurus Poniatovii Zodiarts.

That caused the Zodiarts's original form to dissolve and his stars to rearrange into the pattern of constellation Taurus as he evolved into the very familiar form of the Taurus Horoscope Zodiarts, who, similar to the new Cancer Horoscope Zodiarts, is primarily gold instead of black or bronze, has a black 'X' on the center of his chest, and also has the Zodiac symbol for Taurus ( ) in the center of said 'X'. "Oh come on!" Shintomaru said. "Well, this is certainly a nice surprise! Never thought I'd become a Horoscope on the same day as Karkinos! Really like the gold coloration, since it's an approvement of the original Taurus Zodiarts! And what do you know, I've got a golden version of the original's Gu-anna wand!" The newly evolved Taurus Zodiarts said as he admired his new form and noticed the wand/golf club-like weapon in his right hand. "So, who is this guy's real identity, and what's so special about that weapon?" Frida asked as Aya read the Taurus Zodiarts's aura. "Apparently, his real name is Eryk Buhajski, a Polish international criminal known for illegal cattle raids!" Aya said. "Don't you mean cattle rustling?" Frida asked in confusion. "It's the American term for it, but it's the same thing! Anyway, not only is he known for cattle raiding, but also for selling the stolen cattle to illegal unlicensed butchers for money! Plus, he happens to be best friends with Karkinos Kanizawa, since they both met each other at the Black Market regularly and sometimes trade their stolen goods to each other!" Aya said.

"As for the club, that was a part of the original Taurus Zodiarts, another student named Sugiura Yuta, who is a Golf Enthusiast." Gentarou explained. "While it can be used like a real golf club, the real ability of the Gu-anna, that's the weapon's name, is to force people into keeping with a contracted promise through the use of the wand, which makes them lose all body function should they try to rebel, as well as literally taking people's souls and turning them into loyal drones for the user to control!" Ryusei explained. "In Yuta's case, he used it and his authority as acting Student Council President to enforce all of Amanogawa High's School Rules to an insane level!" Gentaro explained. "How insane?" Manny and Frida asked in confusion. "Those contracts literally make it impossible for those who signed them to break any school rule, stripping them of their creativity!" Gentarou explained. "Sounds like my kind of student!" Chakal said. "You wouldn't happen to be willing to do what the original did over at the school I work at, especially with those two, would you?" He asked Taurus, pointing to Manny and Frida.

That made Manny and Frida gulp in fright. "Hmm! That offer is tempting, I can admit that!" Taurus noted. "Let me get back to you on that sometime later, if you would." He requested. "As you wish!" Chakal said with a sinister chuckle. "In the meantime, I'm heading back to HQ to hone my abilities, until we next meet!" Taurus said he exited through a portal. "In the meantime, I have the perfect way of dealing with him!" Gentarou said, pointing to Saturn V. "AkaRed-san, I need one of those Neo Kyutama things!" Gentarou said. "Sure, but which one?" AkaRed asked, holding up the Neo Kyutamas of Pharos, Golden Gate Bridge, Einstein, Obelisk, Black Widow Spider, and Radio Telescope. "Actually, I meant a blank one, if you don't mind!" Gentaro said. "Ah, no problem!" AkaRed said, tossing said item. "Great!" Gentarou said, catching it and inserting the Cosmic Switch into the Barizun Sword's hilt.

Limit Break!

A portal opened up behind Saturn V as Gentarou rushed to follow her into space. "Seriously? You sent me off into space? Big mistake, pal! I'm based a rocket, a vehicle that's built for space travel!" Saturn V said as he then activated the rocket boosters on his arms and legs and then thrusted towards Gentaro in flight before slamming him with his conical head. "Try that again, punk!" Gentarou declared. "No problem!" Saturn V declared, turning around and flying towards Gentarou as the latter removed and reinserted the Cosmic Switch.

Limit Break!

"Rider Cho Ginga Finish!" Gentarou declared, launching CosmicState's signature finisher. "Aw, Space Apples!" Saturn V complained as it was too late for him to dodge the finisher as it hit him, causing him to explode and lose his Gamma-Ray Zodiarts Switch, which floated in space. Gentarou then used the blank Neo Kyutama to capture the energy from the Switch. That caused the Neo Kyutama to absorb the Switch and gain a black-and-white colored image of the iconic Saturn V Rocket on its globe. Soon, Gentarou returned to the others. "One Saturn V Neo Kyutama." Gentarou said, tossing said item to AkaRed. "And one defeated Saturn V Zodiarts." Gentarou said, plopping the defeated enemy to the ground. Specifically, he was an American Caucasian man in his early 30's with brown hair and a fairly muscular build. "Hey, I recognize him, that's Atlas Starr, an international American criminal known for stealing parts of old spacecraft and selling them for money in the Black Market!" Ryusei said upon recognizing the former Saturn V Zodiarts.

"And I would have continued to get away with it, if weren't for you meddling heroes!" Atlas Starr complained. He then pulled out a syringe. However, before he could even use it, Phixia used her telekinesis to yank the syringe out of Atlas's hands. Ryusei then slapped a pair of handcuffs on him before tossing him through an Aurora Curtain Shintomaru opened. "Say, what should I do with this syringe here?" Phixia asked in confusion. "Hand it over to me, so that the forensics team in Interpol can find out what that stuff is made of!" Ryusei said. Phixia gave it to him. "Who's next?" Ryu asked. "There's me!" Hogarito said as he surrounded himself in a torrent of water before charging towards Aquene with his mouth open and then swallowed her whole with one gulp. "Aquene!" Laird said in fright before using his telekinesis to basically perform the Heimlich! "Cough Her Up, Right Now, You Ugly Fish Hog!" Laird yelled angrily. Soon, Hoagrito threw up, Aquene coming out.

"Ewwwww!" Everyone went in disgust. "You okay, Aquene?" Laird asked his girlfriend. "More disgusted than anything." Aqune complained. "Seriously, I'm covered in fish vomit! Gross!" She added, pointing out the fact that she's covered in fish vomit. "And the smell is just as bad!" Frida said. "Yeah, that too! Would someone get this gunk off of me?!" Aquene asked in disgust. "I'm on it." Laird said, using his telekinesis to lift the gunk off his girlfriend and toss it at the enemies. "Hey, watch it, pal!" Hogarito said as the enemies dodged the gunk. "Who said I wasn't trying to hit you?" Laird asked, holding up a large ball of gunk and successfully hitting Hogarito with it, covering the Hoga Animarius in his own bile! "Okay, that's it! You're Toast!" Hogarito declared angrily as he then summoned a blob of water that he used to clean the gunk off of himself. He then charged towards Laird, only to suddenly get himself caught in a giant dreamcatcher, courtesy of Aquene. "Try to eat me, will you?!" Aquene asked angrily. "You don't scare me, human!" Hogarito said. "Oh, I don't scare you?" Aquene asked in slyly before spraying Hogarito with a lavender mist. "Hey, what's the big idea?" Hogarito asked.

"Riddle me this, what's your worst fear?" Aquene asked. "Just Freshwater Crabs, seriously, I had an incident before entering this universe where I was pinched mercilessly by those things at a nearby stream!" Hogarito said with a shudder. "Hey, what's that on-" Hogarito asked before looking down to see River Crabs walking up him. "*SQUEAL!* CRABS! GET EM OFF, GET EM OFF!" Hogarito yelled in sheer terror and panic. "Crabs? I don't see any crabs!" Manny said in confusion as Hogarito was thrashing at thin air. "Me neither! What gives?" Frida asked in confusion. "Simple, mine and Mantha's power over dreams is causing him to live his worst nightmare!" Aquene explained. "Of course, they can only be seen by the victim, and not everyone else!" Stomantha added. "Oh, that makes sense!" Frida said. "Mind if I give him a pinch?" Manny asked mischievously with claws making a pinching gesture. "Help yourself!" Stomantha said.

Manny then let out a mischievous laugh heading over towards Hogarito and started pinching the Hoga Animarius with his claws. "YEOW! STOP PINCHING ME, YOU CREEPY CRUSTACEANS!" Hogarito yelled in pain, to which Manny and Frida laughed. "Hey, spray some of that stuff in his face now!" Frida said, pointing to Chakal. "Okay!" Aquene complied. Before spraying the mist in Chakal's face. "What's the big idea here? And where did these kids come from, and why are they staring at me with these creepy smiles?" Chakal asked. From his point of view, he saw a large group of kids with big eyes and creepy smiles that were chuckling joyfully in a creepy manner. They were even drooling freaky glowing drool! "Just What Is Going On Here?!" Chakal asked in fright and confusion. Chakal started freaking out as the imaginary children started climbing on top of him, making Frida laugh. "This is better than anything Manny and I ever came up with!" She said. "You're welcome!" Aquene said.

"You still got me to deal with! Paradox Box!" Schrodinger declared as he then manifested a large cardboard box in the same pattern as his Gamma-Ray Constellation that he hid himself into before it closed itself. "Seriously? You hide yourself in a giant cardboard box? That's the best you can do?" Manny asked while unimpressed. "Not quite! Paradox Box is like a Game of Chance! You open the box and I'll either come out as a fully Living Cat or as a full-on Skeleton Cat, the first one meaning you win while the other one means you lose!" Schrodinger explained while still in the box. "Pft, yeah right! Like I'm gonna fall for an obvious trap like that!" Manny said with a snicker. "What's the matter, El Tigre? Are you a scaredy cat coward?" Schrodinger taunted within his box, causing Manny to crack his knuckles and yell out "COWARD?!" angrily while flames burst out behind him. "You know that my aura reading abilities, plus my spirit powers can easily tell which is in that box, right?" Aya asked Schrodinger.

"Yeah, but which one are you seeing?" Schrodinger asked. "That's easy, it's..." Aya was going to say before screamed in pain as Machina Electrica interrupted her by shooting at her with electricity from her electrostatic generator orbs. "Nuh Uh Uh! No Spoilers Allowed!" Machina Electrica said. "Thanks for the assistance, Machina Electrica!" Schrodinger said as El Tigre marched towards the box and opened it, revealing Schrodinger as a fully Living Cat instead of a half-skeleton, who was behaving quite differently than usual. "Help Me!" He pleaded in a child's voice, much to the heroes' confusion. "What in the world?" Manny asked in confusion before the box closed itself back up suddenly. "Hey, wait! What do mean by helping you?" Manny asked in confusion before opening up the box again, only this time, revealing Schrodinger as full-on Skeleton Cat, who laughed wickedly. "Sike!" He exclaimed maliciously before grabbing Manny and then pulling him into the box. "Manny!" Frida said.

However, something unexpected happened. As the box closed, Schrodinger can be heard yeowling in pain like a real cat while the box was rumbling. "WHAT ARE YOU DOING?! YOU'RE NOT SUPPOSED TO ATTACK ME WITHIN MY OWN BOX!" Schrodinger yelled in horror as everyone heard Manny actually overpowering Schrodinger with his own box via his strength and sharp claws. That made everyone wince as both Manny and Schrodinger popped out of the box before Aya looked at Schrodinger's aura and saw something pretty shocking. "Huh?" She asked, double checking. "What's wrong, Aya?" Mormyron asked in confusion. "Schrodinger, he's not just a Zodiarts, he's a Necro Over of a 12 year old boy!" Aya said in shock. That made everyone gasp in shock. "Wait, what's a Necro-Over?" Frida asked in confusion, gaining the attention of W and Ryu. "Essentially, they're kind of like those guys." Phillip said, pointing to the Zombies.

"Wait a minute, I thought that Foundation X had shut down all production on Necro-Overs and the serums needed to make them in favor of Gaia Memories, especially after that disaster with Kamen Rider Eternal and his friends in NEVER! How could there be a Necro-Over here in this day and age?" Pugna Volta asked in confusion. "May I explain to them, Director Chushin?" Baihu asked over a comm link. "Go right ahead, General Baihu! My little secret is bound to get out sooner or later!" A man's voice answered back. "Of course, sir. The Director has given me permission to explain, you see, that's no ordinary 12 year old we made into a Necro Over, rather, that's Director Chushin's son!" Baihu started explaining. That made everyone gasp in shock and confusion. "Director Chushin has a son?! We never heard about this!" Machina Electrica said in shock. "Is this true?!" Pugna Volta asked in equal shock. "That's right! His name's Hideki, and the reason why he's a Necro-Over is because he got himself caught in the middle of a car accident and was nearly dying, with not enough time left for him to be taken to the hospital, so Director Chushin took a Necro-Over serum that was leftover from the shutdown NEVER Project and used it on him to bring him back to life before he could even die!" General Baihu explained. "He only told myself and the other three generals, as well as the three lieutenants!" He added.

This bit of information left Cianan, Rodolfo, and Emiliano conflicted, as fathers of young children themselves, they couldn't imagine nearly losing said children, but at the same time couldn't imagine turning them into this. "Of course, Director Chushin then gave Hideki a Gamma-Ray Zodiarts Switch and had him use it, which resulted in the latter gaining a dark split personality that becomes dominant when transformed into the Schrodinger's Cat Zodiarts!" Baihu said. "Wait a minute, that's awfully similar to the Cygnus Zodiarts!" Gentaro realized. "The who?" Manny and Frida asked in confusion. "Eguchi Norio, an Amanogawa High Student that could transform into a Zodiarts powered by the Swan Constellation." Ryusei explained.

"He was a cosplay otaku who watched Kamen Rider Fourze in action against the Zodiarts and wanted to be a hero like him, yet lacked the nerve to do so! Soon after, Eguchi receives a Zodiarts Switch from the Libra Zodiarts, which caused him to develop a split personality, with the dark aspects of himself occupying the Cygnus Zodiarts, who simply calls himself "Cygnus"! Portraying himself as a hero, Cygnus obtained a large following of people called the Ugly Duckling Society, led by Toriizaki Misa, who used a point system to judge people like the Zodiarts does! While claiming to be a hero of justice, Cygnus actually wants admiration and will attack anyone who he sees as a threat to his true plan, which is replacing Kamen Rider Fourze, as well as those who refuse to see him as a superior being!" Shintomaru explained. Of course, Rodolfo was disgusted to hear this. "Very Unclean! True heroes should never seek fame just for admiration alone, let alone try to forcibly replace other heroes and threaten innocent civilians!" Rodolfo said in disgust. The other heroes of this world said various statements in agreement.

Minus the Golden Eagle Twins, who simply scoffed at that. "You three are ones to talk, especially since you once used Manny as bait to lure something called a Dragon Worm!" Aya said to The Industrialist, Cosmic Cleopatra, and Silver Sombrero after reading the three League of Alliance Society members' auras, making them flinch. "Aw man! We forgot about that!" Cosmic Cleopatra said sheepishly. "I mean seriously, what kind of heroes try to destroy city property, just for a stupid motocross track, without caring about innocent civilians and animals, and then frames the guy who stopped them?!" She asked angrily. "Yeah! How would your own father Capitan Águila feel about you two's unheroic behavior?!" Rodolfo asked sternly. "He's dead! He doesn't know anything about what we're doing!" Carla said. "Besides, we like being admired by our fans and rewarded for our efforts, and we never liked being told what to do anyways, especially by our father! Seriously, he's very strict with us in his hero teachings when we were four years old!" Carlito said.

"You two are a disgrace!" Rodolfo said. "Whatever, come on bro, let's blow this popsicle stand and take the credit for everything!" Carla suggested. "Right, sis!" Carlito said as he and his twin sister flew up into the sky. "But first, to show off our full power before we leave!" Carla declared as she and Carlito linked their boots together and then spun around in midair together like a pinwheel while glowing in a bright golden light. "When we join together..." Carlito said. "Our powers increase a thousand fold!" Carla finished as they summoned a giant, fiery eagle-shaped aura that gave off an intense heat like a thousand suns that literally roasted Monsterzuma and the Alebrije Monster alive, though it also affected ZenKaijuOh and Daileon. "Juspion-sempai, Kaito-sempai, Zocks-sempai!" Yui said worriedly upon seeing that. "Man, that feels really burning hot!" Carl said as LuchaKaiser was feeling the heat too.

"Yeah, but nothing that the Alebrije of the Sun can't do!" Magnifalcougar said. "These guys need to cool down! Axolota?" Adelaide said. "Yes, Adelaide?" Axolota asked from the comm link. "Bring in Bubo, if you please?" Adelaide asked kindly. "Coming right up!" Axolota said. Soon, Bubolarwhal flew through a portal. "Man, is it hot in here! No wonder you called me in!" The Alebrije of Ice said. "Think you can fix it, cus?" Lunastura asked. "Is a Polar Bear's skin actually black? (Fun Fact, It Is)" Bubolarwhal asked before crossing his wings. "Deep..." He started saying as energy swirled around him. "FREEZE!" He called. The then unleashed a freezing energy burst that not only trapped Monsterzuma and the Alebrije Monster in huge blocks of ice, but also severely weakened the Golden Eagle Twins' giant eagle aura construct. "Dang Ailu, your cousin is powerful!" Sid said. "They may not be Great Elementals, but Bubolarwhal and Owlatursa are certainly high powered." Ailuxucara said as Bubolarwhal started panting. "Unfortunately, like Magnifalcougar's Supernova Mode, Deep Freeze takes a lot of energy out of me." He admitted. "Here, let me help with that." Becky said, using her powers to infuse a little energy into the Alebrije of Ice.

"Whoa! Thanks, Becky!" Bubolarwhal said upon being feeling reenergized. "Hey! What's the big idea?" The Golden Eagle Twins asked in annoyance. "Your combined attack is harming us just as much as the bad guys!" Carl said angrily. "So what? Don't tell us you're afraid of a little collateral damage!" Carla said. "Actually, we are, we even have a flying wrestling ring made specifically to prevent it!" Adelaide said. "Pft! Lame!" Carlito said in a mocking tone. "Your blimp is lame!" Frida shouted. That made Carlito furious. "IT'S A ZEPPELIN!" Carlito yelled angrily. "And you really think this..." He said, pulling out a remote control. "Is lame?!" He asked, hitting the button on the control. That's when a large zeppelin that's decorated with the head, wings, and tail feathers of a Golden Eagle came flying in. "Extremely!" Frida said. "Yeah! It's practically the slowest vehicle in all history of slowest vehicles!" Mikey said in agreement. "Even the Airships used by early Super Sentai look better than that-tune!" Secchan said. "Plus there's the fact that no one's really used blimps or zeppelins since the Hindenburg exploded." Lisa said.

"Well, except for those still used for other purposes such as advertising, sightseeing, surveillance, research, and advocacy, with the Goodyear Blimp being the most famous example!" She added. "Also the Metal used in their construction is very expensive, which begs the question as to how a couple of teenagers were able to have something like this built." Lisa noted. "Okay, so we saved up enough money from our rewards to build our Golden Eagle Zeppelin in our early days as superheroes, and I do mean a lot of money!" Carla said. "And we also used a large amount of generous cash donations from the people in order to repair it after El Tigre wrecked it!" Carlito said before glaring at Manny. "DONATIONS YOU DIDN'T DESERVE!" Frida said angrily. She then summoned a construct of the constellation Aquila, which then screeched and flew towards the Golden Eagle Twins before slashing at them with its talons.

"Tytus, could you please be a dear and shoot that monstrosity out of the sky?" Aquilis asked Tytus pointing to the Zeppelin. "On it, Mother!" Tytus said as she then threw a metal feather at the Golden Eagle Zeppelin. Sailing right through the envelope (The Balloon Like Body) causing it to sink right down into a one way trip to the volcano's magma! "AAAH! Our Blimp! Oh, dang it, now she's got me calling it a Blimp, Again!" Carlito complained. Frida laughed as Mephoatzel smelled the air. "Oh no, please tell me you didn't fill that thing with Hydrogen!" He begged the Golden Eagle Twins. "Hydrogen? I thought we put Helium into our Zeppelin!" Carla said in confusion. "I'm going to go my bad on that, turns out Helium is a lot more expensive and hard to get than I thought, and we already spent a majority of the donations we conned the city out of on the repairs, but Hydrogen was right in our price range." Carlito explained. "You Estupido! Hydrogen is very flammable!" Mephoatzel said.

That's when everyone felt the rumbling from the volcano they were in. "Uh, Lisa? How very is very flammable in the case of Hydrogen?" Lincoln asked. "You know the Hindenburg I mentioned earlier? Well for the very same reason Carlito mentioned, it was filled with the stuff, all it took was a spark for 7,000,000 cubic feet of Hydrogen onboard to ignite and send the 804 foot long airship to be completely destroyed in about 30 seconds." Lisa explained. That made everyone gasp in shock and realization. "WE NEED TO GET OUT OF HERE, AND FAST!" Lincoln shouted loudly. "No need to tell us twice, LL! We'll have to move this battle outside and away from this volcano!" King Draco said. "GET THE DARK VECTORS FLYING!" He ordered Stephano, Akuji, and Shibogumon. "Yes, your Majesty!" The three main Dark Riders replied as they went to the portal back to the Castle. "We'd better get our Vectors as well!" Lincoln said as he, Sakura, Clyde, Leo, Cayenne, Kagura, and Zen pulled out miniaturized Vectors before letting them off, allowing them to go back to their normal sizes before they started collecting everyone on their side, as well as the defeated Sergio, Dr. Chipotles, Lady Lava, El Oso and Ossito, Moustache Mafia, Titanium Titan, and Cactus Kid while the Dark Riders did the same for those that are still active, not defected, and not properly defeated after flying through the portal in the Dark Vectors. At the same time, Giant Robot Sanchez and LuchaKaiser grabbed the frozen Monsterzuma and Alebrije Monster as well as the defeated Squids before flying off, with Daileon transforming into its vehicle form while ZenKaijuOh splitting back into Super Zenkaizer and Super Twokaizer SD as the former transformed into his ZenKaijuDrill mode with the latter hitching a ride on top before the vehicles followed behind the two giant robots. As for General Chapuza, Che, and the Zombies, they're still stuck in the big hole in the middle of the volcano stadium floor.

"Uh amigos? We're still stuck to the floor here!" General Chapuza said in worry as the volcano continued to rumble, getting close to erupt. "Uh, Grandfather, I think it's too late for us!" Che said as the lava erupted underneath the stadium, launching said stadium with the Zombies stuck to it's floor upwards towards the opening of the volcano, causing the Zombies to get sent sailing in midair and into the distance. "Boy, that was close!" Mikey said. "Uh, Min'na? I think we have a bigger problem!" Sakura said as pieces of rock erupted from the volcano and lava started flowing down and towards the city! "Holy Chalupa! That hydrogen-filled blimp made the volcano's eruptions much worse than usual!" Frida said in shock. Before everyone glared at the Golden Eagle Twins, who simply looked nervous before flying away. "Man I hate those two!" Manny said angrily. "Yeah, if only we could get Capitan Águila here in the Land of the Living, then he'll be the one to set those two straight!" Frida said. "And then make them come into contact with the Bronze Boots of Truth in front of the entire city!" Frida said. "One step at a time, Frida-chan, we first need to stop the lava flow, get the boots and sombrero back from that skeleton guy, and stop King Draco and Sartana's forces!" Sakura reminded Frida.

"Oh, right!" Frida said sheepishly. "I might need some help from Owlatursa for this situation! She is the Alebrije of Lava, after all!" Bubolarwhal said. "On it!" Axolota said as Owlatursa flew through a portal. She then noticed the current state of the volcano. "Sweet mother of Pele!" Owlatursa said in fright. "Pele?" Manny and Frida asked in confusion. "Hawaiian Goddess of Volcanoes and Fire, and the creator of the Hawaiian Islands, at least in Hawaiian myth!" Lisa answered. "Can you stop it, Owla?" Ronnie Anne asked. "Hmm...I'm sensing this isn't a natural eruption, ie one that was created rather than occurred." Owlatursa noted. "Yeah, long story short, those fake superheroes called the Golden Eagle Twins had this big blimp that popped and then fell into the lava, and it, apparently, was filled with Hydrogen instead of Helium!" Manny said. "A highly flammable natural gas in a literal river of fire...yeah that will do it. Hmm, the mountain's most likely taken a lot of damage in the top, and the city is going to need to build a new sign, but the lava? Nothing I can't fix!" Owlatursa said.

"How, exactly?" Manny asked. "It won't be easy, I'll have to go into the volcano and calm the eruption down, Nikki and Regaluco, you'll need to use your powers to erect a barrier to prevent the lava from reaching the city, and Ronnie Anne and Jaxondor, you'll need to use your water powers on the lava itself." Owlatursa said. "And I'll help with my Ice Powers!" Bubolarwhal said. "Right!" Owlatursa said as they flew to the areas they were needed.

In the City...

The people were freaking out over the fact that the volcano was experiencing such a big eruption. "The Volcano Never Erupted That Violently Before! What The Heck Is Going On?!" Principal Tonino asked in fright as he and Zebra Donkey, along with the students of Leone Middle School, were running for their lives. Suddenly, the Regaluco mech flew along the ground of the city limits, erecting a crystal barrier as she flew. "What on Earth is that robotic wolf/beetle/fish thing?!" Municipal President Rodriguez, the President of the Miracle City Municipal Council, asked in shock and confusion. "It doesn't look like it's alone!" A random citizen said, seeing the Jaxondor mech spraying water on the lava, hardening the molten rock. "Okay, a mechanical creature resembling a mix between a Jaguar, a Condor, and an Axolotl, that's rather unusual." Dr. Eugene L. Butterman noted. "It looks like they're working to protect us from the volcano!" Principal Tonino noted. "There's also that tiny white creature breathing ice!" He added as Bubolarwhal was seen breathing ice at the lava.

"Where did they come from?" A random girl asked in confusion. "Another world." A voice said as everyone turned to see Narutaki of all people. "Who are you?!" Municipal President Rodriguez asked in confusion. "Just a traveling prophet." Narutaki said. "As for those beings, they are Guardian Spirits from another world who have shared their powers with humans from another world to protect that world from great evils, unfortunately, the ambitions of one of the great evils has brought them to this world, and it seems someone from this world has been chosen to join their ranks." Narutaki said, eyeing the Callocelotarling mech. That made everyone gasp in shock and confusion. "But it's none of my business, and you might want to reconsider your faith in some people." Narutaki said, tossing a Golden Eagle feather he had on hand for some reason to the ground before disappearing through an Aurora Curtain. "Was that guy creepy to anyone else, or is it just me?" Principal Tonino asked.

"I'd say it would be the former." Dr. Eugene L. Butterman said while Zebra Donkey went "Hee Haw!" in agreement. Everyone else voiced their agreements.

Meanwhile...

King Draco and the rest of villains that are still alive and not defected are waiting for the heroes at the local wrestling stadium. "What were those idiots thinking? Filling their blimp with Hydrogen?!" Sartana asked in annoyance. "Yeah! Those two make even me look smarter by comparison, and that's saying something!" General Megalonis said. "Well at least they're doing something to stop the lava flow." Chakal said, watching a news report about the incident on a nearby tv. "Say, has anyone seen the Zombies?" Django asked in confusion, realizing that the Zombies weren't with the rest of the villains. Golshi made a few grunts. "He says he saw them being rocketed out of the volcano by the eruption." Futaba translated. "Say, has anyone seen the Zombies?" Django asked in confusion, realizing that the Zombies weren't with the rest of the villains. Golshi made a few grunts. "He says he saw them being rocketed out of the volcano by the eruption." Futaba translated.

"Eh, they'll be fine! The Zombies are undead beings after all, they've been through worse situations!" Sartana said, obviously not worried. "Can the same be said about you?!" Lincoln asked as everyone turned to see the heroes, a little soot covering Ronnie Anne and Nikki's suits. "Aren't you two supposed be stopping that volcano?" Aquilis asked in confusion. "We just finished." Ronnie Anne said. "With some help!" Nikki added as Bubolarwhal and Owlatursa flew into view. "Man, that was a close call, especially since I had to get into the volcano itself just to stop the eruptions!" Owlatursa said as a flashback of said event played out. Owlatursa was flying above the lava as her eyes started glowing. "Alright, Miracle City Volcano, time to calm down!" She declared. "Eruption Shutdown!" Owlatursa announced as a black beam shot out from her eyes and hit the lava. This caused the Lava to recede.

"Phew! Glad that's over with!" Owlatursa noted in relief. Then, the flashback had ended, returning the scene to the present. "Now that that's done with..." Lincoln said, cracking his knuckles. "Where were we?" He asked. "My thoughts exactly!" Schrodinger said as he charged towards the heroes with his claws out. "Soul Korin, ShishiRed!" AkaRed called, taking on the form of the Kyuranger leader. "Let's see what this one can do!" He said, loading a Neo Kyutama into the Seiza Blaster.

Kurogokegumo (Black Widow Spider) Neo Kyutama! Gamma Attack!

AkaRed then pulled the trigger, causing the Seiza Blaster to summon a projection of the Black Widow Spider Gamma-Ray Constellation, complete with the image of a female Black Widow Spider, in front of him, right before it covered his right arm and converted into a Spider-themed gauntlet modeled after a female Black Widow Spider. "Clever." He said. "Cool! What is it?" Frida asked. "The Kyuutamas used by the Kyurangers are divided into two categories: Change Kyutama, which allow the user to transform into a Kyuranger, and Skill Kyutama, which allow the user to use special effects, some of which giving them special armor, as in the case of the Pegasus and Ikkakuju, meaning Unicorn, Kyutamas!" AkaRed explained. "In the case of the Kurogokegumo Neo Kyutama..." AkaRed said, pointing the gauntlet at the enemies. He then had the spider fangs on the gauntlet extend out and charge a crimson pulsar energy sphere, before firing.

That made a direct hit on Schrodinger, who yeowled in pain. "You'll pay for that!" He declared. He then energized his claws. "POISONED CLAWS!" Schrodinger announced as he slashed out poisonous energy slashs from his claws. Fortunately, Frida was able to summon a construct of the Scutum Constellation that blocked the attack. "Any other bright ideas?" Frida asked. "Why not use the Eridanus Constellation, since house cats don't like water?" Adelaide suggested. "An excellent idea, Adelaide!" AkaRed said. "Eridanus, huh?" Callocelotarling asked slyly. She and Frida then summoned a construct of the river constellation Eridanus, which then surged towards Schrodinger. "Huh?" Schrodinger asked in confusion. He then got caught in the torrent as he didn't dodge the river in time. "AAAH! NOT COOL, NOT COOL!" Schrodinger complained. He was then seen flaying around in the water all panicked like a cat trying to get out of the water.

Manny couldn't help but laugh at that. "What's the matter, can't swim?!" Manny asked before laughing again. Schrodinger growled at that. "Hey, Schrodinger, Freeze!" Bubolarwhal said as he used his ice powers on the water that Schrodinger was in, causing the Gamma-Ray Zodiarts to get frozen solid. "Nice one, bro!" Owlatursa said. "Better finish him off!" AkaRed said as prepared the finisher.

Super Galaxy!

He then gathered a much larger pulsar energy sphere from his Black Widow Spider gauntlet. "Black Widow Pulsar!" AkaRed announced as he then fired out the pulsar energy sphere, which then transformed into a large energy construct of a female Black Widow Spider that went and attacked the frozen Schrodinger with its fangs and legs. This struck the Gamma Zodiarts, causing him to explode, allowing a Zodiarts Switch to fly out as AkaRed pulled out a blank Neo Kyutama and absorbed the switch's power into it. That caused the Neo Kyutama to have it's globe gain the image of a brown outline of a cardboard box showing two different cats (a white living cat on the right and a black skeleton cat on the left) sitting and facing away from each other with a green vial of poison in between them. "That is such a disturbing image." Frida said. "Yeah, which is good reason why Schrodinger's Cat is a hypothetical experiment and not a real one!" Lisa noted.

They heard groaning and turned to see a young boy, who was clearly part-Japanese and part-Chinese with black spikey hair and wearing a white T-shirt with light blue Japanese short pants and black sneakers, standing where Schrodinger once was. "Ittai! My aching head!" He complained while rubbing his head (image his voice sounding like Cain von Silford from the anime "Chronicles of an Aristocrat Reborn in Another World", better known by its Japanese title "Tensei Kizoku no Isekai Bōken Roku"). "Easy, kid. Do you remember anything?" AkaRed asked, rushing over. "*Groan!* I remember briefly taking control of the Schrodinger Zodiarts's body and calling out for help!" The boy said. "Hey, I...I don't feel so good." He said woozily. The boy then started to fall over, before AkaRed caught him in his arms, where he saw that the boy is starting to slowly disintegrate, starting with the arms and legs. "Holy chalupa! What just happened?" Frida asked.

"It's his Necro-Over body, it's breaking down from the lack of bio-stimulants and from the destruction of his Zodiarts form!" Phillip realized. Sakura got an idea. "Electra-chan, Eury-san, can you fix this?" She asked. "We'll sure try!" Electrangiconia and Euryzinophis said. Before flying over to the boy. Then, the two breathed in and exhaled some glowing particles that mixed in with each other before they then sprinkled themselves all over the boy. Their powers were able to restore what was already crumbling apart. After that, the boy started breathing better. "Yokatta!" Sakura said. The boy then started to regain consciousness. Baihu rushed over and checked the boy's pulse with astonishment. "Director Chushin, you aren't going to believe this, but somehow, Hideki has been completely revived!" He reported. "Nani?!" Director Chushin asked in shock and surprise from the comm link.

Then, a portal opened up in the battlefield to reveal a half-Japanese/half-Chinese man with slick black hair, who's wearing the typical Foundation X business suit, trousers, and black shoes with an added yellow dandelion decorated on his pocket protector, that came towards the boy. "D-D-D-D-Director Chushin!" Baihu and Akuji stammered, shocked at Foundation X's Zodiarts Head's sudden appearence. That made the veteran Kamen Riders gasp in shock upon hearing that. "This guy is one of the Foundation's Directors?" Morag asked Akuji. "Hai, and trust me, he is someone you do not want to make an enemy out of!" Akuji warned. That made Morag gulp in fright. Manny scoffed. "He doesn't look that scary to me!" He said. "Are you sure about that?" Chushin asked, pulling out his Zodiarts Switch, which is similar in appearance to a Horoscopes Switch, albeit colored Yellow and decorated with a hornless Chinese Dragon wrapped around the body as well as having the Chinese word for Huánglóng/Yellow Dragon "黄龙" on the big button. He then pressed the button, causing him to summon a projection of the whole Solar System (consisting of the Sun, the planets Mercury, Venus, Earth with the Moon, Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune, the minor planet Albion, the dwarf planets Ceres, Orcus, Pluto, Haumea, Quaoar, Makemake, Gonggong, Eris, Sedna, and Salacia, the Asteroid Belt with the prominent known Asteroids Vesta, Pallas, and Hygeia, the Kuiper Belt, the Scattered Disc, and the Oort Cloud, as well as the hypothetical Planet X) before it merged with him to form his own Zodiarts form, which looked like a golden yellow hornless white-eyed draconic humanoid being based on a Chinese Dragon, complete with the tail, head and spine hair, and whiskers, that had rock-like armored scaly skin and having the Sun in the center of his chest, the planet Earth in the center of his forehead with the Moon set immediately above it, the planet Jupiter embedded in his right shoulder, the planet Mars embedded in his right wrist, the planet Saturn embedded in his left shoulder, the planet Venus embedded in his left wrist, the planet Neptune embedded in his right knee, the planet Uranus embedded in his left knee, the planet Mercury embedded in his abdomen, the Planet X embedded in the center of his back, embedded in the tip of his Chinese Dragon-like tail, the Asteroid Belt wrapped around his waist acting like an actual belt with the dwarf planet Ceres in the center front acting as a buckle and the Asteroids Vesta, Pallas, and Hygeia attached to the belt on the right, left, and back respectively, and the Kuiper Belt, Scattered Disc, and Oort Cloud manifesting as a very huge ring floating on his back with the minor planet Albion and the dwarf planets Orcus, Pluto, Haumea, Quaoar, Makemake, Gonggong, Eris, Sedna, and Salacia embedded into said disc, plus he had a Chinese Emperor's crown (called a mianguan) on top of his head, wide golden yellow silk sleeves on his arms, a dual black capes embedded with images of two golden yellow hornless Chinese Dragons that are hanging from the back of his shoulders, and a Dragon Robe at his waist set below his belt that's split open at the front.

He then formed and fired a ball of energy that took out a large amount of Neo-Lizardons. "Uh oh!" Gentarou and Ryusei said. "Uh oh is right, Fourze and Meteor, that fool Gamou is nothing compared to me!" Chushin said, deactivating his transformation and kneeling down to the boy. "Hideki!" He said. "Tou-san?" The boy, now identified as Hideki, asked upon slowly waking up. "How?" Chushin asked. "When my powers over life..." Electraginconia said. "And mine over death..." Euryzinophis said. "Mix, we are able to revive any deceased being." They explained. "And not as an undead being, but rather as a living breathing one!" They added. "Does that apply to zombies? Because I'm starting to get tired of having to glue Zebra Donkey's stupid ear back on!" Chakal said angrily. "Welll, it depends on if the Zombies in question still have their souls intact or not!" Electrangiconia said.

"Well he certainly acts like he's still alive, the ear thing is really the only thing that gives it away." Frida noted. "In that case, it would apply to Zebra Donkey!" Euryzinophis said. "We can take care of that later." Lincoln said. "Oh, right, of course!" Electrangiconia and Euryzinophis said sheepishly. "Hideki, I'm so glad you're truly alive!" Director Chushin said while hugging Hideki. "Aww!" The girls went. "Come now, my son, let's get back to base!" Director Chushin said as he tried to drag Hideki with him. However, surprisingly, Hideki suddenly resisted. "No, Tou-san!" Hideki said in a slightly angry tone, much to his father's shock. "Nani? What did you just say, Hideki?" Director Chushin asked in shock. "I said No, Tou-san! Now, I remember everything! About how I was dying after I got hit by a car that was driven by one of your own men, about how you turned resurrected me against my will with some sort of serum, and about how you made me take that switch and had me turned into a Zodiarts that manifested a dark split personality that became dominant and made me unable to control own my body!" Hideki said angrily, making everyone gasp in shock. "Okay, first of all, I wasn't very happy about it myself when I found out about Tatsuki hitting you with that car, heck, I practically fired him for that! Second, I wasn't willing to let you die, and there wasn't enough time for me to get you to the hospital before you succumb to your injury, so turning you into a Necro-Over was the only way that I can think of in order to save you! And Third, the split personality taking control of your body in Zodiarts form wasn't exactly part of the plan when I had you use that Gamma-Ray Zodiarts Switch!" Director Chushin clarified admittedly. "That's the only thing I'm angry about, Tou-san! You and your men went and ransacked the home the Koban Family and then slaughtered said family!" Hideki said angrily, much to everyone's shock. "Firstly, the patriarch of that family was investigating far too closely into Foundation X's affairs, especially in our Zodiarts Research! And second, how do you know about that, especially since I never even brought you into that operation?!" Director Chushin asked in shock and confusion. "Yaeko-chan, the Koban Family's daughter, is my love interest, and I found out after going to visit her house, only to find it ransacked and her parents both dead, with Yaeko-chan and her Ototo Osuke-kun and Imouto Chōko-chan's bodies being nowhere to be found!" Hideki said angrily, making everyone gasp in shock again.

"Kind of similar to our situation." Azalee said, Aden and Edge nodding in agreement, before the three glared at Stephano. "Oh, what? Still mad at me for killing both of your parents?" Stephano asked smugly. "What do you think, punk?" Azalee asked before whispering in Mikey's ear, who then nodded before unleashing another round of rapid fire pizzas! "OH COME ON!" Stephano complained angrily. Before he was buried in more cheese, tomato sauce, dough, grease, and a variety of toppings! "How's that for an extra large serving, Pizza the Hutt?" Mikey asked, making the heroes while Stephano growled angrily within a pile of mashed pizzas. "I Hate You." Stephano said resentfully. "The feeling's mutual!" Aden called, using the Ouroblade to freeze Stephano up to his neck. "That ought to hold you, for the moment!" Ouros said. "Seriously? Ice? You realize that is part of my Weather powers, right?" Stephano asked in annoyance before managing to break himself out of the frozen pizza pile. "Then how does quick drying cement sound?" Azalee asked, using her own powers to cause Stephano to sink down to his shoulders in said material.

"HEY!" Stephano complained loudly as he was stuck in the cement that quickly dried up. "That should keep him busy for a while." Azalee said. "Hideki, you're not seriously thinking about going against your own father, right?" Director Chushin asked Hideki. "I am." Hideki said as Chushin silently reactivated his Zodiarts Switch. "Then this hurts me more than it will you!" He declared, firing another energy ball, this one bigger than the one from before. Realizing what Chushin was trying to do, AkaRed pulled out the new Neo Kyutama. "Here goes nothing!" He said, loading it.

Schrodinger no Neko (Schrodinger's Cat) Neo Kyutama, Skill Mode!

The last part confused AkaRed. "Skill mode?" He asked himself before deciding to ask questions later.

Gamma Attack!

Pulling the trigger and summoning a large projection of the Schrodinger's Cat Gamma Constellation, complete with the image of cardboard box that had a cat's paw sticking out of a hole in the box's right side, that passed over the Heroes just as Chushin's attack made contact, causing a big explosion. "I'm terribly sorry you had to do that Director Chushin." Akuji said. "If you'd like, I could organize a memorial service once we get back." Baihu offered. "That would be fine, General Baihu!" Director Chushin said. "Uh, I hate to spoil the moment, but, I don't think that energy ball did the trick! Just look what I'm seeing!" Shibogumon said as he pointed at where the explosion happened. As soon as the smoke cleared up, there was a huge cardboard box where Hideki originally was. The box then opened up and Hideki climbed out. Along with a bunch of white shorthaired kittens that meowed and followed the boy all the way out of the box. "Nani?! Where did that box come from and what's with all of the kittens?!" Akuji asked in confusion. "Well to quote ShishiRed, Yossha Lucky! I just decided to test out the Schrodinger no Neko Neo Kyutama, and it provided Hideki here a means of protection, although the fact that the Seiza Blaster said Skill Mode does raise some questions." AkaRed said. "Maybe it has something to do with the nature of Schrodinger's Cat? You know, how you don't know if the cat is alive or dead unless you open the box?" Lisa suggested.

"That's a fair assumption." AkaRed noted. "As for the kittens, well, maybe it's a reference to how kittens like to sleep in boxes and also how they are presented in boxes before they get adopted!" Lisa said as the four white kittens started rubbing their bodies against Hideki's legs. "Kawaii!" Sakura and Yui beamed. "Kawaii?" Albino Burrito asked in confusion. "It's a Japanese word for 'Cute'!" Shintomaru said. "The Spanish counterpart would be lindo." Lisa said. "Oh." Albino Burrito said. Chushin, of course, wasn't too happy about his son being with the heroes now. "Believe me, Chushin, I know the exact feeling with my own kids turning on me!" General Leo said, pointing at Andros and Phixia. Chushin scoffed. "I'm leaving." He said, walking towards the portal, eyeing Morag as his eyes glowed, allowing him to see the Constellation Virgo within her. 'Well, now! That one is certainly a promising new Horoscope to be!' Cousin noted mentally with a smirk. "Keep an eye on her!" He told Akuji, pointing to Morag. "As you wish, Director Chushin!" Akuji replied. "Can somebody get me out of here!?" Stephano asked angrily. "*Sigh!* I'll do it!" General Leo said as he used his strength to break through the cement, freeing Stephano in the process.

"Thank You!" Stephano said while dusting himself off. "Alright, anyway, first things first, we need to get that hat and those boots off him!" Lincoln said, pointing to El Machete. "You're forgetting about me and Pugna Volta here!" Machina Electrica said as she and Pugna Volta attacked the heroes with electric attacks. "Uh, Lis, what kind of Constellations are those two based on?" Lincoln asked. "Machina Electrica and Pugna Volta." Lisa noted. "Let's see, Machina Electrica, Latin for 'electricity generator', was a constellation created by Johann Bode in 1800, who created it from faint stars between Fornax and Sculptor, to the south of Cetus! Specifically, it represented an electrostatic generator, which is an electrical generator that produces static electricity, or electricity at high voltage and low continuous current! The constellation was somewhat popular during the 19th century and had appeared in a number of star charts, but was eventually rendered obsolete when the International Astronomical Union standardized constellation boundaries in 1930 and is now no longer in use!" Lisa explained. "What about Pugna Volta?" Ronnie Anne asked. "Pugna is usually the Latin word for 'fighting' or 'combat', but in this case, it's an alternative Latin word for 'Battery', with the true Latin word being Altilium! This is because the constellation that guy represents is named the Battery of Volta, which was invented by British physician and Egyptologist Thomas Young, who designated this constellation in 1806 to honor an important invention by Alessandro Volta, the Electric Battery! However, appearance-wise, there's not really much to that constellation, since it is made of only two stars, specifically 1 Pegasi, which glows at magnitude 4.1, and 9 Pegasi, which is ever so slightly fainter at magnitude 4.3!" Lisa explained.

"A constellation made of only two stars? Lame!" Becky said. "Hey!" Pugna Volta complained. "Yeah, don't about my love like that!" Machina Electrica said in defense, much to everyone else's confusion. "Wait, you two are a couple?" Frida asked in confusion. Aya looked at their auras. "They certainly are! Pugna Volta and Machina Electrica's real identities are Enerio Altilium and his girlfriend Chashmali Martines, who are both skilled electricians and are also known for making counterfeit batteries and selling homemade generators of their own creation without proper licenses!" Aya said, much to everyone's confusion. "Counterfeit batteries? That's a thing?" Lincoln asked. "Kid, trust me, there are a lot of counterfeit stuff out there." Ryu said, Ryusei nodding in agreement. "How bad can counterfeit batteries be? I mean, batteries are practically harmless!" Manny said. "Au Contraire, my tiger-themed friend! The reason why counterfeit batteries are illegal is because they're not certified by any recognized lab and may be difficult to distinguish from OEM batteries! Some knock-off batteries may be listed to a general battery safety standard, but others are not tested or listed to any safety standard! In fact, using a battery that isn't designed to work with a specific tool and charger system can lead to poor performance in appliances, shorter life in machines, damage to the tool and charger, voiding of a tool's warranty, and battery bursting, the last one meaning when the battery heats up too much, it becomes unstable and will heat up further much faster, eventually causing it to catch fire or, worse case scenario, explode!" Lisa explained, making everyone that didn't know that gulp in fright.

"Yeah, that's right, folks! Batteries can actually explode, and that's incredibly hazardous, especially when the batteries themselves are made of Lithium and the explosions produce toxic fumes!" Lisa said. "It's pretty crazy." She admitted. "I take it that neither one of you knew about that, right?" Aya asked Pugna Volta and Machina Electrica, to which they both shook their heads. "Hey, we just make them." Pugna Volta said. "Yet, you don't realize how much danger your customers are in for those counterfeit batteries you sold them to!" Shinnosuke pointed out. "Yeah, well, eat this!" Pugna Volta declared as he then started zapping at the heroes with his electricity-formed arms, though he ended up hitting Becky, which turned out to be a bad move for him. "Big Mistake, Pal! I can manipulate all types of energy, including electricity! Heck, I can even drain it from you!" Becky said as she then used her Energy Powers to literally drain the electricity from Pugna Volta's body, all the way until he's nothing but a big armless and legless battery that fell over. "My Love! What's Wrong?!" Machina Electrica asked in worry. "Loooowww Battery!" Pugna Volta said in a slurred tone, making some of the heroes giggle at his predicament. "Here, let me charge you back up!" Machina Electrica said as shot out electricity at Pugna Volta's body, allowing him to get recharged back to normal and regenerate his arms and legs.

"Whew! Thanks for the recharge, Honey!" Pugna Volta said in relief. "That is both sweet and annoying at the same time!" Yui complained. "In that case, I'd better take care of this!" Shinnosuke said as he pulled out Shift Tridoron.

Fire All Engines!

He then inserted the Shift Car into his Shift Brace, just as his signature car Tridoron entered the scene.

Drive! Type Tridoron!

As the Tridoron disassembled and merged with Shinnosuke's armor, creating his final form, Type Tridoron. "Whoa!" Manny said. "Cool! What was that?!" Frida asked. "Kamen Rider Drive's signature vehicle the Tridoron." Shintomaru said. "While most Kamen Riders use Motorcycles as their vehicles, Drive is one of the few who uses Cars instead!" He added. "In fact, the only other car used by a Kamen Rider I can think of is Black RX's Ridoron, which I suppose could be considered the precursor for the Tridoron." Shintomaru noted. "But, anyway, when Drive takes on his final form, Tridoron actually merges with him to form his army, as you all have just witnessed!" Shintomaru said. "Cool!" Manny and Frida said. "Big deal!" Pugna Volta said. "How's that form supposed to beat us, anyway?" Machina Electrica asked while unimpressed. "Like this!" Shinnosuke said as he then pressed the button on the side of Shift Tridoron.

Come On! Flare, Spike, Shadow!

He then pulled Shift Tridoron like a lever, summoning the tires of Max Flare, Funky Spike, and Midnight Shadow.

Tire Kakimazerl! Attack 1.2.3! (Electric guitar squeal, followed by shamisen strums and rock music warble)

The three tires then slid into Shinnosuke's left arm before merging with his left side's big tire to upgrade him into Type Tridoron Attack 1.2.3. "Where did that tire go, I wonder?" Frida asked. "Huh, I guess we never really thought about that." Krim admitted. "Seriously? That's it? You just changed your tire?" Pugna Volta asked in confusion. Before laughing out loud. "You shouldn't underestimate me that easily!" Shinnosuke warned. He then twisted the ignition on his driver before pulling Shift Tridoron like a lever again.

Attack 1.2.3!

He then sped around the two Zodiarts while creating three copies of himself that surrounded them before he and the copies threw spike projectiles along with fireballs at them both. This sent the two flying. "Nice! My turn!" Becky said as she threw the ball of electricity that she drained from Pugna Volta and threw it straight at the Battery-themed Zodiarts. Both were hit. That caused both Pugna Volta and Machina Electrica to yell in pain and shout "OVERLOAD! OVERLOAD!" as the amount of electricity that hit them was too much for them absorb, right before both Zodiarts exploded. Allowing their switches to roll up to the heroes. Becky and Shinnosuke then picked up both switches. And deactivated them. Which caused both switches to vanish into thin air. As soon as the smoke cleared, Pugna Volta and Machina Electrica were both revealed to be a Filipino/Italian man in his 20's and a Iranian/French woman in her 20's, respectively. "Anything either of you would like to say before I send you to Interpol HQ to be convicted?" Ryusei asked, approaching them with handcuffs.

"Yeah, looks like we'll have to postpone our wedding plans!" Enerio Altilium, formerly known as Pugna Volta, said in disappointment. "For the next ten-to-twenty years, give or take on good behavior!" Chashmali Martines, formerly known as Machina Electrica, finished in equal disappointment. "You two were planning on getting married?!" Sakura asked in shock. "Looks like it." Aya said. "Yeah, we were, but a lot of things have delayed our plans, such as us joining with Foundation X, having ourselves turned into Zodiarts, and now us being defeated and arrested by you meddling do-gooders!" Enerio said bitterly. Ryusei sighed. "Alright, I can't make any promises, but I'll talk with my superiors at Interpol to see if they can or can't allow something." He said. Shintomaru then opened up an Aurora Curtain before Ryusei pushed Enerio and Chashmali through it.

"Okay, now that that's taken care of, anyone have any ideas on how to get the Golden Sombrero of Chaos and Bronze Boots of Truth off of El Machete? Or how to get the Bronze Boots of Truth's soles to touch the Golden Eagle Twins in front of the entire city?" Frida asked. "We'll figure out the latter when we get to it, Frida-chan!" Sakura said. "I've got an idea! I'll use the Power Pinata of Punishment on him!" Albino Burrito said as he pulled out an inanimate brown donkey-shaped Pinata with a green mask-like marking on it's face, making everyone confused, except for Manny, Frida, Rodolfo, and Jorge, who all recognized the object in question and gasped in shock and appall. "Okay, I'll ask, what's with the paper machie donkey?" Raph asked. "Oh, this? It's my signature weapon, for breaking this fragile shell will unleash the power of a thousand fiery suns!" Albino Burrito answered, causing everyone but Manny, Frida, Rodolfo, and Jorge to laugh hysterically at that. "Oh, it's no joke." Manny said. "Trust us!" Frida said.

"But, in all seriousness, Davi, HAVE YOU GONE LOCO?!" Rodolfo asked Albino Burrito incredulously. "Yeah! If you use that weapon of yours on El Machete, you'd end up destroying the Boots and Sombrero along with him!" Jorge pointed, making Albino Burrito facepalm in realization. "I seriously doubt a paper mache donkey can destroy something with the words 'Gold' and 'Bronze' in their names." Lisa said quizzically. "That's what you think! That Pinata easily destroyed a very big look-like-me robot that I've made, which was only supposed to activate after I pass away so that I would get revenge on everyone who crossed me, though since it would require touching the monkey cane to actually activate it, I didn't really think that one through!" Jorge admitted. "Then how did it get activated?" Lisa asked. "It's my fault, actually! It happened after I saw a spec of dust on the cane while I was dusting around the house, as part of El Tigre and Frida training me by making me do their chores, and I ended up touching the cane with my gloved hand, causing the giant old man robot to activate and fly out of the house, though I guess I wasn't actually warned not to touch that thing beforehand!" Albino Burrito admitted.

That made the heroes look at Manny and Frida incredulously. "Seriously?! You two made him do all of your chores?!" Aya asked incredulously, making Manny and Frida gulp nervously. "We'll, it's mainly because we didn't want to do them ourselves! Seriously, cleaning Senor Chapi's cage too gross and smelly for me to handle!" Manny said. "And I certainly didn't want to clean my family's dogs' teeth, considering how vicious they are and how they like to chew on my goggles when given the chance! Besides, we'd rather goof off and do fun things on our own than do some boring, disgusting, and sometimes frightening chores that we don't want to do!" Frida defended, making the heroes groan in frustration. "And they say I'm a goof-off at times, but you two make me look more mature than the both of you, and that's saying something!" Mikey said in . "Yeah! Even me and my sisters had to do chores around our house, even the kind that we don't like, and we found out the hard way that not doing them at all would only make our house turn into a complete literal disaster zone!" Lincoln said. "Besides, tricking someone into doing chores for you, just because you don't want to do it yourselves, doesn't make it right! It's practically like making them your unknowing servant or slave!" Aya angrily pointed out, making Manny and Frida gulp nervously. "Don't worry, Papi and I have already punished them for their deception after that robot was defeated, by making them do the chores that they were shirking off before!" Rodolfo said, making the heroes sigh in relief. "I hope you two learned your lesson after that!" Aya said, making Manny and Frida chuckle sheepishly. "We did, kinda." Frida said. "There was another thing we did with Davi, where we made a deal with him that I'd become his sidekick for a week if he takes the blame for accidentally destroying a priceless book that so happens to be a recipe book from Vice Principal Chakal's grandmother, mainly so that I don't get expelled! Long story!" Manny said nervously, making the heroes groan again while Vice Principal Chakal gasped angrily upon hearing that. "You Did WHAT?!" Chakal asked angrily, to which Manny flinched in fright. "Manuel, we are going to have a serious talk about your behavior when this is over!" Rodolfo warned sternly. "*Gulp!* Yes, Dad!" Manny said nervously. "But either way, anyone have any other ideas?" Albino Burrito asked. "Phixia and I might be able to get the hat off with our telekinesis, but the boots aren't going to be that easy." Laird said. "Perhaps my strength can help?" Andros asked. "And mine?" Bobby asked.

"Hmm, that could work, though the Bronze Boots of Truth also grants their user super speed in addition to super strength!" Rodolfo pointed out. "Big brother, do you think your and Par's speed might be able to help with that?" Callocelotarling asked Sweetarlin. "Why, of course, little sister!" Sweetarlin replied. "You'll get these over my undead body!" Machete declared. He then used the Bronze Boots of Truth to speed his way towards Par before kicking him in the crotch, causing the latter to fall on his knees and cover himself in pain. That made the males wince at Par's pain. "Why Do They Always Aim For The Kiwis?! WHY?!" Par asked in anguish and pain. "I am so glad I'm a girl." Frida said. El Machete then sped himself towards Phixia and Laird before quickly kicking them both down onto floor. "Hey, punk!" Bobby said, catching his attention, making Machete turn just in time to see Bobby's fist colliding with his face with so much force he's sent back, but the Golden Sombrero of Chaos is knocked off!

"Quick! Somebody catch me Sombrero!" Jorge shouted frantically. Manny quickly used his chain arm to catch the Sombrero and return it to his grandfather. "Gracias, Manuel!" Jorge said as he put the Golden Sombrero of Chaos back on his head. Allowing him to enter it's battle mode. "Whoa! Cool mech suit!" Carl noted. "Doesn't matter, I still have the boots!" Machete said. "What's so special about some boots anyway?" Raph asked. "Whoever wears them gets super macho speed and strength, and whoever touches their soles has to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth!" Rodolfo explained. "Sounds kind of similar to Wonder Woman's Lasso of Truth!" Nikki noted. "Either way, how are we supposed to get them off?" Lincoln asked. "Here's a hint, you can't!" El Machete said as he kicked Bobby in the crotch, which is, unfortunately, the Bronze Lucharanger's only weak point, causing Bobby to yelp in pain before falling over on the floor as stiff as a statue. "What is with this guy and nut shots?" Bobby asked in a high pitched voice as Machete laughed before feeling someone tap his shoulder, causing him to turn around, only to be met with a frying pan wielding Lori smashing said utensil in his face!

"NOBODY DOES THAT TO MY BOBBY BOO-BOO BEAR AND GETS AWAY WITH IT!" Lori yelled angrily. Before looking at the boots in curiosity. "Hm..." She said, touching the boots' soles and entering a trance. "I fart a lot and I hate it." She admitted. That caused Lori to blush brightly while her siblings shouted "Knew It!" in a cheeky tone. "Yeah, sometimes the boots make you say a random secret." Rodolfo said apologetically as Lori ripped the boots off and tossed them to him. "Ah, that's so much better!" Rodolfo said, putting the boots back on. Of course, El Machete got up and quickly recovered before knocking Lori down with one of his three left arms. "Grrrr! I don't need those Artifacts to defeat you!" El Machete declared as he wielded his large sword in one of his three left arms. He then charged towards the heroes and rapidly knocked them all down with his sword and right hand claws without effort, except for Andros, who was practically undamaged. "What's this? How come you're not damaged in any way, boy?" El Machete asked Andros in confusion.

"I am the son of a Nemean Lion Animarius, and like my father, my skin can only be penetrated by either of our claws!" Andros said. "Don't tempt me, you little traitor!" General Leo said, his claws out. "Wait, that guy is your father?" Rodolfo asked in confusion. "Unfortunately." Phixia said in annoyance. "Then, who's your mother?" Jorge asked. "She was a Sphinx Animarius, same as us, as well as a powerful sorceress, even having managed to delay our birth from when they...well you get the idea, until about 10 years ago." Phixia explained. "And, like our father, she's evil and she really doesn't approve of us falling in love with human children our own age!" Andros said. "Really? Why?" Frida asked in confusion. "Do you really have to ask?" Andros asked rhetorically. "It's because of the Empire having this specific rule that Animarius are never supposed to fall in love with other sentient races, especially since they're supposed to conquer other planets and enslave said races!" Phixia said. "Of course, when our father found out Mpatapo and I made Linked Heart Necklaces and Bracelets, traditional accessories worn by Animarius couples in love, the Necklaces for the girls and bracelets for the men, for Duafe and Phixia, he wasn't too pleased." Andros admitted. "And I will make you regret that decision, my treacherous son!" General Leo declared as he then charged towards Andros with his claws out.

However, when he raked his claws against Andros' skin, nothing happened, not even a scratch! "Huh? Nothing happened?" Andros asked himself in confusion upon noticing that his father's claws didn't damage him like his own claws do to his father's skin. "WHAT?! THAT'S IMPOSSIBLE! HOW CAN MY OWN CLAWS NOT DAMAGE HIS HIDE LIKE HIS CLAWS HAD DONE TO MINE?!" General Leo asked loudly in shock and confusion. "I guess not only did Nyansipo's potion give Andros General Leo's hard skin, but also eliminated that weakness!" Aya surmised. "Who's Nyansipo, and what's this about a potion?" Jorge asked in confusion. "Nyansipo is one my cousins from my late mother's side, the only who's male, that is! As for his potion, well, it's a long story, one that we'd rather wait until this ordeal is over before telling! But, I can tell you that the potion in question is basically a male equivalent of the beauty enhancement potion for girls, basically giving boys muscular bodies, kind of like those seen in athletes, among other things!" Aya explained, causing General Leo to drop his jaw in total shock and outrage.

"YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!" He said angrily. "Sorry, but this is going to hurt you a whole lot more than it will me!" Andros said extending his knuckle claws and using them to scratch the right side General Leo's face so hard, his eye was torn out! "*ROAR!* MY EYE! YOU LITTLE PUNK! I'LL KILL YOU FOR THIS!" General Leo yelled in agony and fury before swiping at Andros with his claws again, only for the impact on Andros's hide to be strong enough to cause his claws to literally shatter like glass. "Oh, snap! You're hardcore, Andros!" Mikey said. "Yeah! Possibly as much as me!" Raph said. General Leo growled, covering his empty eye socket. "Return to the castle, Leo." King Draco ordered his overall third in command. "Yes, your Majesty!" General Leo said in obvious pain. "This isn't over!" He angrily told Andros and Phixia before opening a portal and retreating. "Something about that lion guy really scares me!" Manny noted with a shiver. "Tell me about it." Lincoln said.

"Okay, aside from El Machete, Hogarito, Django, the Flock of Fury, and the Monster Ninja Clan, who do we have got left?" Frida asked. "That would be me!" Maldejo said as he unleashed a howl that produced a literal shockwave of dark energy that drastically weakened the heroes to the point where they have trouble standing up. "Great, how are we supposed to deal with him?!" Lincoln asked. "And, what kind of dog is he?" Mikey asked in confusion. "That's Maldejo, my evil twin brother! He and I are both based the Cadejo , specifically the white variant and the black variant, respectively!" Buendejo explained. "A what now?" Raph asked in confusion. "Creatures of Central American folklore." Donnie explained. "The Cadejos appears as large shaggy dog-shaped creatures with hooves and sometimes horns that roams around isolated roads at night! There is a good white cadejo with blue eyes, deer-like hooves, and either goat horns or deer antlers and an evil black cadejo with red eyes, goat-like hooves, and either goat or ox-like horns as well as sometimes depicted with red hot chains wrapped around it's body! Both are spirits that appear at night to travelers, with the white cadejo, sometimes said to be a creation of God himself, protecting them from harm and danger during their journey, while the black cadejo, which is sometimes either a creation or incarnation of the devil himself, trying to kill them. Of course, there's a fairly popular version of the legend in El Salvador that talks about two brothers who walk into the house of a black magician! During a storm, he asked the boys to help him with some logs for a fire! However, both boys slacked on the job and ate some the man's food! Once the magician found out about the little bit of food he had being missing and that there was not enough wood for his fire, he placed a curse on the road that leads to the boys' village! This caused mysterious voices to bother the boys and when they turn their backs on the voices while on the cursed road, they both get turned into a white Cadejo and a black Cadejo! After going back to their village in their cursed form, the brothers got kicked out and had no choice but to wander the road!" Donnie explained.

"Yikes!" Lincoln said. "Does the Black Cadejo have any known weaknesses?" Sakura asked. "Unfortunately, there aren't any known weaknesses for the regular Black Cadejo! According to the stories, many have tried to kill the Black Cadejo, but have failed and perished! In fact, it is said that only a hybrid between the regular Black Cadejo and a mortal dog can, with great difficulty, be killed, usually by a strong man with a machete, a type of knife, and that often results in the corpse of that creature to completely rot in a matter of seconds, leaving behind a stain of evil, on which grass and moss will never grow again!" Donnie explained. "And, as you can clearly see, I'm not a hybrid!" Maldejo said as he then let out another howl, unleashing another dark energy shockwave that somehow directly hit Lincoln's driver, causing it to spark up a little bit.

Emergency Warning! Ejecting Random Soul Cores!

"Oh, that can't be good!" Lincoln said as his driver suddenly spat out ten random Soul Cores, specifically those having the images of a Vampire Bat, Pangolin, Cassowary, Stork, Japanese Stag Beetle, Siberian Tiger, Red-Tailed Hawk, Greek Sphinx, Sha, and Serpopard. "That never happened before!" Naturia, floating next to Sakura, as well as Toadus and Gorf said worriedly. "Quick, Goliathus, now's our chance!" Cerberion said as he charged forth. "Okay! If you say so!" Goliathus said as he followed him. "They're after the Soul Cores!" Lincoln said in realization as Manny launched his chain arm and successfully grabbed six of them while Cerberion and Goliathus grabbed the other four. "Sorry, Lincoln, these are the only ones I could grab." Manny said as Lincoln saw the ones. "Batkor, Pangolin, Cassowarius, Stork, Hawk, and Siberius." Lincoln recognized. "But that means that they have..." Sakura said as everyone saw Cerberion holding Sphinxia, Shaos, and Serpoparda's soul cores and Goliathus holding Lieutenant Kuwagata's!

"Oh, Crud!" Lincoln and Sakura said in horror and realization. "What? What's wrong?" Manny asked in confusion. "Within the Animarius Castle is the Tree of Life, and if a Soul Core is placed in one of it's fruits, the Animarius that owned it is revived!" Toadus explained. "As for the four Soul Cores those two have captured, they belong to Lieutenant Kuwagata, a Stag Beetle Animarius who happens to be the younger brother of General Kabuto, who's currently elsewhere in our universe right now, Shaos, a Sha Animarius with chaos and storm powers, his girlfriend Serpoparda, a Serpopard Animarius with similar chaos magic as her boyfriend, and Sphinxia, General Leo's girlfriend and fiance , and also Andros and Phixia's mother!" Gorf explained. "And Cerberion's sister." Toadus added. "Sister? But, the guy's a three-headed dog and she appears to be a human-headed lioness with wings! How can Sphinxia be Cerberion's sister?" Frida asked in confusion. "It's complicated." Every Animarius present said. "It's complicated." Every Animarius present said. "Although, in Greek Mythology, the Cerberus, Nemean Lion, and Sphinx, along with the Chimera, Orthrus, Lernaean Hydra, Caucasian Eagle, Ladon, Crommyonian Sow, and Colchian Dragon, were all children of the Storm Giant Typhon and his monstrous wife Echidna." Lisa noted.

"You can do whatever you want with those small fries, Riders, but we'll be taking these!" Cerberion declared. He then opened up a portal and left through it. "Later, losers!" Goliathus said as he went through the same portal before it closed. "Well that was foreboding!" Mikey said. In the castle, Cerberion and Goliathus found General Leo holding a towel up to what's left of his eye socket, blood pouring out. "I swear, I will find a way to make that son of mine pay for this!" He said angrily, removing the towel, fresh, still bleeding slash marks seen over the entire right side of his face. This made Goliathus back away a little bit in fright and disgust. "Luckily for you, Leo, my sister is a firm believer in inner beauty, if she wasn't, there's no way she'd ever fall for someone like you." Cerberion said, showing the Nemean Lion Animarius Sphinxia's Soul Core. "Sphinxia's Soul Core?! But How?!" General Leo asked in shock and confusion. "Apparently, when my cousin Maldejo hit the heroes with his signature move Darkness Howl, he managed to make a direct hit at LL's Driver, causing it suddenly malfunction a little bit before spitting out ten Soul Cores that it had already absorbed before, though Goliathus and I only managed to capture four of them, with the other three we've captured being those of Shaos, Serpoparda, and Lieutenant Kuwagata!" Cerberion explained.

"Unfortunately, one of the Soul Cores the Riders were able to grab was Siberius'." Goliathus said. "WHAT?!" General Leo asked in literal roaring anger. Before growling. "Matters not, with Sphinxia by my side once again, the Riders and their allies won't know what hit them! Especially those traitorous children of ours!" Leo said. He then started laughing maniacally. "Uh, you do realize that you need to have that missing eye of yours checked out, seriously, just looking at it is making me want to throw up!" Goliathus said in disgust. "Dang It! You're right! I'd better have Aquilis make me a robotic eye to replace my missing one when this is over! Heck, I'd better see if she could make some replacement claws for me!" General Leo said. "Also, I believe you're still in trouble for using that Berserker Crocus Essence on Siberius, especially since his Majesty explicitly banned that stuff when he came into power!" Goliathus reminded, much to General Leo's chagrin. "Good point, and if the riders do revive Siberius, I don't think he'll be too happy to see me after that." Leo admitted.

Back With The Riders...

"So, what do we do with these? Put them back in that belt thing of yours?" Manny asked. "If I may, I suggest we use Electra and Eury's powers on Siberius, once revived, he will be free of the Berserker Crocus' influence, and I believe he will be a powerful ally." Toadus suggested. "Huh! That might actually work!" Lincoln said, much to Jaguaron's delight. "We'll figure out what to do with the others later, but for now..." Lincoln said, presenting Siberius' Soul Core to Electraginconia and Euryzinophis. "...if you'd please." He said. "Gladly!" The Alebrijes of Life and Death replied as they breathed in and exhaled some glowing particles that mixed in with each other before they then sprinkled themselves all over the Soul Core. Soon, the Siberian Tiger Animarius was living once again. "Master Siberius!" Jaguaron said, rushing over as Siberius coughed, regaining his bearings. "Jaguaron? What happened? Where am I?" Siberius asked in confusion. "Siberius, do you remember anything?" Toadus asked. "I remember being strapped to a table, with an IV drip in my arm, Leo telling me I would be used to fight LL, and using a serum made from the Berserker Crocus, but I blacked out as the serum entered my bloodstream." Siberius explained.

"That's because, in addition to altering your personality with that serum, he also performed hypnotic conditioning on you in orders to make you attack my brother on sight!" Lisa explained. "Who?" Siberius asked. "That would be me!" Lincoln said, pointing at himself, much to Siberius's shock. "But that's all in the past, Toadus suggested we use our friends' powers to revive you in the hopes that you'd aid us in the fights against King Draco, his goons, and whatever else threatens this world, so what do you say?" Lincoln asked, offering his hand in friendship. This made Siberius ponder a bit, having never been offered friendship from a human before, before realizing that this offer might actually benefit him in the long run and give him a chance to start over. "If it means getting back at Leo for using that Berserker Crocus Essence on me against my will, then I accept your offer!" Siberius answered as he shook Lincoln's hand in acceptance to his offer of friendship. "Great, now first things first, we need to take care of these guys!" Lincoln said. "Good luck!" Maldejo said sarcastically and laughing. "Mecha Pollon!" Lincoln called as the robot winged hound rushed back to them. "Trinity Buster!" Lincoln called as Mecha Pollon once again turned into his weapon form and got caught by Lincoln, Sakura, and Clyde. "You don't scare me!" Maldejo said. "Then, how about I join in?" Buendejo asked as he stood next to the three Kamen Riders, much to Maldejo's surprise. "Oh, so now you've decided to grow a spine and finally face me in battle, brother? Well, then, so be it!" Maldejo said, before unleashing his Darkness Howl attack again. "Sealing Blast!" Lincoln called, pulling the trigger and firing the Trinity Buster's beam. "Shining Howl!" Buendejo announced before unleashing his own howl that let out of shockwave of pure light instead of darkness and united with the Trinity Buster's beam, which then ripped through Maldejo's attack and obliterated him.

"That must have taken a lot of courage Buendejo-san." Sakura said as Lincoln picked up and sealed Maldejo's Soul Core. "Believe me, it did! Maldejo has always been bullying me since we were pups, and his bullying only got worse when King Draco came into power!" Buendejo said. "I served his parents, and they were kind people, they'd be so disappointed if they knew just what he's up to." Siberius noted. "Then, I'm afraid they haven't been aware of that in a very long time, on the account that Drako here actually killed his own parents in their sleep!" Mikey said, causing Siberius to gasp in shock. "He did WHAT?!" Siberius asked angrily. "I didn't think it was possible, but it seems your mouth has gotten bigger and more annoying than I remember!" King Draco told Mikey in annoyance. "Tell me about it." Raph said. "Hey!" Mikey said. "Why? Why did you kill King Ddraig and Queen Tatsuko, your own parents?!" Siberius demanded. "Because I didn't want to wait until their retirement before my ascension to the throne!" King Draco answered. "Of course, there was still that annoying brother of mine." He added.

"You mean Prince Tian? Come to think of it, he wasn't around when you became king! Don't tell me... You killed him too, didn't you?!" Siberius asked angrily. "Unfortunately, no, I didn't kill him! I tried to, after he and his friends Nyeupe and Mobulus caught me in the act of killing the original King and Queen, but they've escaped after they entered a Cryostasis Pod that put them in suspended animation and flew off-planet to who knows where, though I've decided not to pursue them any further, since I've figured Tian's absence means that I can ascend to the throne without anyone to challenge me, not to mention that, because I've haven't the Cryostasis Pod nor those three children since then, I've pretty assumed that they are forever lost in space!" King Draco admitted before laughing maniacally. "You're a real monster!" Siberius said in utter contempt. "Tell us about it, we knew him in his previous life, and it's honestly difficult to tell which version is worse!" Mikey said. "Previous life?" Siberius asked in confusion. "It's a long story!" Donnie said. "Well either way..." Sartana said, strumming her guitar, summoning a large horde of skeleton soldiers. "GET THEM!" She ordered, only for a large gust of wind to blow through, causing the skeletons to fall apart. "That's enough, Sartana!" A voice that Sartana immediately recognized called. "You've got to be kidding me!" Sartana said in annoyance.

That's when everyone looked up to see La Muerte, Xibalba, The Candle Maker, and the Book of Life standing together on upper right corner of the stadium wall. "Hello, daughter." Xibalba said. "Lady La Muerta, Lord Xibalba!" Emizel said in surprise getting down on his knees. "You know them, Emizel-kun?" Sakura asked. "Lady La Muerta, Lord Xibalba, the Candle Maker, and the Book of Life are all part of the Afterlife Council!" Emizel explained. That took everyone by surprise. "Wait, how can a book be part of some council?" Frida asked in confusion. "Oh, he's no ordinary book, young lady! The Book of Life is a living, sentient, magical book containing all the stories and the events in this universe, from the past all the way to the present, and also contains all mortal beings' and all mortal creatures' written life stories from the moment they are born all the way up to their deaths! Plus, he's my best friend and helps me in my job of guarding the souls of all living beings in this universe!" The Candle Maker explained while the Book of Life floated around while bowing down in a greeting gesture. "So, in a way, it's like the Gaia Library, fascinating." Philip said.

The Book of Life then made a few miming motions. "He's saying that he doesn't know what that is, but he'll take that as a compliment!" The Candle Maker said. "Uh, you're welcome!" Phillip said. "So, what are members of the Afterlife Council doing here?" Nagi asked in confusion. "First to smack some sense into our daughter down there." La Muerte said while glaring at Sartana, who wasn't very pleased to see either one of her parents. "Wait, you're Sartana's parents?" Manny asked in surprise. "I see the resemblance!" Frida joked, looking at Xibalba. "Pray you don't end up in the Land of the Forgotten after death following that comment, little girl." Xibalba said, sensing what Frida was suggesting. That caused Frida to flinch in fright. "Sorry!" Frida apologized. "Sartana, what do you think you're doing?!" La Muerte asked angrily.

"That first, it was to help these two find their missing comrade in the Land of the Dead, though my grandson Django volunteered to guide them their in my stead!" Sartana said while pointing at Futaba, Moroha, and lastly Django. "But then they found these!" She said, spreading her wings. *Groan* "I thought I told you to lock those away in the Land of the Forgotten!" La Muerte chastised Xibalba. "Sorry, Mi Amor! Truth is, well, I tried to find a place put them in my domain, but, unfortunately, no matter where I put those wings, some of the Forgotten Dead were getting a little too attracted to the wings and were acting all like feral dogs wanting to get whatever pieces of meat they could find, not to mention that I was afraid of what might happen if even one of the Forgotten Dead actually manages to obtain them, so I had to put those wings somewhere in the Land of the Remembered, specifically in a random cave, in order keep it away from the Forgotten Dead and to make sure that it doesn't fall into the wrong hands!" Xibalba explained shamefully. "Well unfortunately for you, that 'random cave' was where I had made home in." Otoha said.

That made everyone, especially La Muerte, groan in exasperation. "You know, I was actually wondering about this one extinguished candle with these strange looking symbols carved into it that suddenly appeared in the Cave of Souls few centuries ago and then later today had it's flame lit again." The Candle Maker noted. That made everyone who didn't know about the Candle Maker look at him in confusion. "Oh, right, where are my manners? See, the reason I'm called the Candle Maker is because, not only am I in charge of keeping balance between the Land of the Remembered and the Land of the Forgotten, but I'm also in charge of creating the candles of life that embody the life and time of each and every living mortal, whether they be human or animal, on Earth, which would automatically extinguish their own flames once said mortals die a natural death or an unnatural one, from within my home known as the Cave of Souls, which serves as the link between all the realms in this universe via the magic waterfalls!" The Candle Maker properly explained. "And you're saying that an already extinguished candle with strange symbols suddenly appeared in your home centuries ago?" Manny asked in confusion. "Yeah! It was really weird, especially since it was never there before! Must have happened when that winged snake woman first appeared in the Land of the Dead!" The Candle Maker said while pointing at Otoha.

"Yeah, what's up with those things anyway?" Jorge asked, looking at the Shadow Angels. "We're not from this universe, nor the ones that these Kamen Riders or Super Sentai come from, nor even from the Ninja Turtles' Universe! Rather, we are from the same universe as that man over there!" Futaba said while pointing at Zen. Cayenne and Kagura glared at Futaba from under their helmets. "Oh, yeah, and those two!" Futaba said. "Long story short, they're a race of genocidal human hating angels." Cayenne said. "Yeah, we got that from most of their conversations!" Rodolfo said. "Honestly, Sartana, you are too much like your father here for your own good!" La Muerte said. "Hey! I've gotten better since that one Day of the Dead in San Ángel a few decades ago, you know, when Manolo Sanchez and Joaquín Mondragon defeated the evil Bandit King Chakal?" Xibalba reminded in offense.

For some strange reason, a headache struck Manny, Zoe, and Vice Principal Chakal the moment Xibalba mentioned Manolo, Joaquin, and Bandit King Chakal. "Did you just say Manolo Sanchez? That's my paternal cousin's name, since his mother also happens to be my father's sister!" Jorge said in surprise. "And you said Joaquin Mondragon, right? Were you referring Sr or Jr?" Emiliano asked. "I believe it was Jr, since his father died against the Bandit King when Jr was still a kid!" Xibalba said. "Oh! I see! But, now that I remember, Mondragon just so happens to be my wife's maiden name!" Emiliano said. (Note: Everything Related To "The Book Of Life" And El Tigre From Here Forward Has Been Confirmed By Jorge R Guiteirrez Who Also Worked On The Movie!) "Oh man, you guys have to hear this story, let me tell you, it is crazy! You see, a while back, these two made a little wager centered around three best friends, Manolo Sanchez, Joaquin Mondragon, and Maria Posada..." The Candle Maker said as Frida got a headache of her own upon the mention of Maria. "...Manolo and Joaquin were in love with Maria, so Xibalba and La Muerte made a little wager over who would end up marrying her, if Manolo did then Xibalba would never interfere with mortal affairs again, but if Joaquin did then Xibalba would take over rulership of the Land of the Remembered, while La Muerte would be sent to the Land of the Forgotten to become it's ruler." He explained.

"So, La Muerte and Xibalba took on the guises of elderly mortals to visit their chosen ones as children as a way to test their personalities! La Muerte asked for some bread from Manolo and he gave her one out of kindness, so she thanked him heartily and in return she gave him her blessing which is "May your heart always be pure and courageous"! Of course, when Xibalba asked Joaquin for bread too, Joaquin told him that that the bread was for his deceased and he doesn't give away things for free, so Xibalba gave him the Medal of Everlasting Life, which is this magical medal that makes it so that whoever where's it can neither be killed nor get injured, in exchange for the bread, though not before warning him to keep the Medal hidden from everyone at all times, for the Bandit King Chakal was desperately searching for it himself! Why, you ask? Well, Joaquin's father Captain Joaquin Mondragon Sr. previously wore the Medal himself after Xibalba chose him as his Champion in a bet against his brother El Chamuco, but lost it to Chakal after he was killed in battle by the Bandit King, who then used it to become invincible while going pillaging and plundering every village he goes to, so Xibalba secretly managed to steal it back from him, and let me tell you, it really made the Bandit King lose his marbles, if you know what I mean! He even amassed a huge army of Banditos in his search for that thing" The Candle Maker explained.

Xibalba chuckled nervously at that as La Muerte gave him a death glare. "Meanwhile, Maria, who was a bit of a rebel as a kid, got sent by her father, who was a general, to some nuns over in Spain to become a 'Proper Lady' after releasing some pigs that were going to be slaughtered onto the city." The Candle Maker said. "Sounds like somebody I can get along with!" Lana noted. "Wait, Slaughtered?! For what reason?!" Makros asked in shock and confusion. "Oh, for food! See, we humans are classified as omnivores, meaning we eat both plants and animals, along with some fungal matter like yeast and mushrooms, so the meat that we eat comes from either domestic farm animals that are killed and prepared for cooking or from animals that are hunted in the wild, and among the animals we usually eat are various species of fish, crustaceans like crabs, lobsters, shrimp, and prawns, mollusks such as snails, clams, oysters, octopi, and squids, Echinoderms such as Sea Urchins, birds like chickens, ducks, geese, turkeys, quails, guinea fowl, and sometimes pheasants and ostriches, and mammals such as cattle and pigs as well as sometimes rabbits, sheep, goats, and deer!" Lisa explained, much to Makros's disgust and apall. "Oh, gross! We Gurrugans are herbivores! The only non-plant materials we consume are fungal growths and the milk that the females our race produce for our infants! The very idea eating animals disgusts us to the point where the smell of a dead animal repulses us!" Makros explained in disgust. "Well, that certainly explains why you only ate the fruit-filled tamales that my Abuela made after Kairos's debut as a Lucharanger!" Ronnie Anne noted.

"So even your diet resembles that of Earth Kangaroos, fascinating." Lisa said, jotting down some notes. "So, while Maria was in Spain, Manolo and Joaquin's lives took two different paths, while Joaquin was able to become a celebrated soldier all thanks to the Medal of Everlasting Life, Manolo was forced to undergo his father's Matador training, he came from a long line of Bullfighters you see, despite the fact he actually wanted to pursue a career in music." The Candle Maker said. "Plus, he really didn't like the idea of finishing off the bulls after defeating them in the ring, if you know what I'm getting at!" He added. "Wait, are you saying that Bullfighters KILL THE BULLS IN FRONT OF EVERYONE?!" Lana asked angrily. "Really should have worded that more carefully, Candle Maker-san." Sakura noted. "Ooh, good point. Anyway, years later, after Maria returned to San Angel, Manolo and Joaquin both began pining after her, trying to win her over, but Xibalba here decided to play dirty some more, by sending his two headed snake Mas Y Menos to bite Maria, seemingly killing her, distraught with grief, Manolo agreed to let the snake bite him, allowing him to go to the Land of the Remembered, where he reunited with his deceased family members, including his mother, however, as he ended up discovering, because Mas Y Menos only bit Maria with one of their heads, she was only put into a death like coma, and was revived by the Medal of Everlasting Life when Joaquin approached her, trying to kiss her." The Candle Maker explained.

"Wait, but that means..." Clyde realized. "Yep! When Manolo died because Mas Y Menos bit him with both of their heads, which means that Xibalba had, quite literally, cheated his way to victory, as he ended up ruling the Land of the Remembered while La Muerte ended up in the Land of the Forgotten without even realizing about his deception!" The Candle Maker, causing everyone on the heroes' side, minus Manny and Frida who were still having their headaches, to angrily glare at Xibalba. "How do you think I felt?" La Muerte said, continuing to give Xibalba a death glare. That made Xibalba chuckle nervously. "To make matters worse, Bandit King Chakal's goons found out about the medal and soon, he was on his way!" The Candle Maker said. That made the heroes gulp in fright. That made the heroes gulp in fright. "So, determined to set things right and bring himself back to life to reunite with one true love, Manolo, with his mother and grandfather, set off to edge of the Land of the Remembered to find the Cave of Souls, where Manolo had to dodge and weave against three big boulders in a huge labyrinth! Once the boulders were defeated by crashing into each other at once, the Cave Guardian when and judged Manolo with a giant sword, to which Manolo courageously stood his ground and let the sword crash onto him, which caused the blade to crumble with Manolo remaining unharmed and in one piece, due to his heart being courageous and pure, allowing him and two family members to freely enter the Cave of Souls, where they all met me and the Book of Life! Now, normally, I'm not supposed to interfere with the lives of mortals, but because the Book warned us about Chakal and his Banditos coming over to San Angel to utterly destroy it to the point where their would be no survivors left to remember anyone that already died, plus the fact that Xibalba did Manolo wrong with his cheating, not to mention that, to my own amazement, Manolo's story within the Book of Life is blank, meaning that it can be rewritten by Manolo's own actions, the Book and I helped the three by guiding them to the one waterfall that leads them straight to the Land of the Forgotten, where they finally found La Muerte! Let me tell you, once Manolo told her about Xibalba's cheating, she was furious! Seriously, she yelled out Xibalba's name very loudly with the candles on her hat shining a lot brighter than they should be, which promptly summoned Xibalba to her location and, boy, did she give him a really harsh stern lecturing! Heck, La Muerte called Xibalba, in her own words, a Misbegotten Son of a Leprous Donkey, and she and Manolo's mother even slapped him for his deceitful act!" The Candle Maker explained.

"And talking about it is tempting me to slap him again for old times sake." La Muerte said. "If I were there, I'd punch him in the face instead!" Becky said. "Me too!" Dodge said while cracking her knuckles. That made Xibalba flinch in fright. "Of course, when La Muerte demanded to have Manolo brought back to life, Xibalba was stubborn and continuously refused! So, Manolo offered the two gods a wager! Specifically, if he wins whatever challenge that Xibalba sets for him, then he'll be brought back to life, but if he loses, Xibalba will rule both of the Lands and Manolo will be doomed to be forgotten! So, Xibalba ended up agreeing and read Manolo's fear to give him his challenge! He then teleported Manolo to a large colosseum in the Land of the Remembered, where Manolo's challenge is to face every bull that the Sanchez family has ever finished, numbering the thousands, all at once!" The Candle Maker explained.

"Meanwhile, his father died trying to stop Bandit King Chakal's forces before they could reach the city and his Great Grandmother died from cholesterol issues at age 107, allowing them to witness the event as the bulls combined into one big angry mega skeleton bull monster that I'd like to call Toro Muerto!" He added. "But Manolo was able to prove the old age saying 'Music soothes the savage beast' by playing a song apologizing, something his father said Sanchez men never do, to the bulls that were wronged by bullfighting. Once soothed by Manolo's song, Toro Muerto was able to rest in peace and it's body ended up turning into a cloud of marigold flower petals and ashes that disappeared into a white light above!" The Candle Maker said. "Oh, man! That sounds so sweet, that I'm gonna cry!" Luna said before crying out loud. Shintomaru, Edge, and Kairos then noticed the headaches Manny, Frida, Zoe, and Chakal were experiencing.

"Huh?" The three reincarnated asked in confusion upon noticing that. "Anyway, once that was done, Manolo reconciled with his father, right before La Muerte, Xibalba, and I granted him the right to be brought back to life, and just in time too, as the Bandit King Chakal and his Bandito army had already managed to reach the middle of the city and took the Medal of Everlasting Life from Joaquin! Luckily, since it was also the Day of the Dead, us three deities made it so that Manolo's whole deceased family participate in the final battle alongside San Angel's citizens!" The Candle Maker explained. "Man, you should have seen it!" He said as the Book of Life opened to a page depicting the battle. It showed everything, from Manolo's deceased family members fighting against the Banditos in their own unique styles, to the city priest Father Domingo briefly held the Medal of Everlasting Life and beat up a group of Banditos while wearing a Luchador mask, to even Maria Posada's pet pig Chuy charging at more Banditos with the help of a heard of both living and skeleton pigs.

"Eventually, it came down to Chakal himself. He even lit the fuses of some bombs strapped to his chest, hoping to take the city down with him!" Candle Maker said. That made the heroes gasp in shock. "So, Manolo and Joaquín held Chakal down where Joaquín warned Manolo that the column holding up the church bell was about to collapse! However, in an act of selfless courage, Manolo sacrificed himself by kicking Joaquín away and then kick the column out, causing the bell collapse into himself and Chakal, right before the bombs then exploded inside the thing, killing Chakal in a huge detonation and causing his bandit army to immediately retreat! Fortunately, while the explosion only managed to injure Joaquin's left eye, Manolo managed to survive the explosion without a single scratch, since, as it turned out, Joaquin had secretly gave him the Medal of Everlasting Life as he intended to sacrifice himself to save Manolo!" The Candle Maker explained. "Dang." Lincoln said. "After that, Manolo and Maria got married, and lived a long happy life together, with three kids, twin girls and a boy." He said.

"As for Joaquin, well, after a different adventure where he was searching for his father in the Land of the Unknown while he, Manolo, and Maria fought against Xibalba's very evil older brother El Chamuco and his wife La Noche, who so happens to be La Muerte's twin sister, as well as Chakal's adopted daughter Chela, he ended having a somewhat romantic relationship with the very latter! But that's a story for another time!" The Candle Maker said. "Pretty crazy." He said. "Yeah, I wonder though, Emizel-kun, may I borrow your binoculars?" Shintomaru asked Emizel. "Um, I guess! Why?" Emizel asked in confusion. "The entire story, they looked like they were having a headache, and since we did as well before realizing our past lives, I want to test a theory." Shintomaru said, looking at Manny, Frida, Zoe, and Chakal through the binoculars.

At once, much to his shock and confusion, he saw not one but two people behind each of the four individuals. Specifically, behind Manny were the images of not only Manolo Sanchez, but also a very thin fair-skinned 17-year-old Mesoamerican native boy with fangs, shoulder-length white hair, and red eyes, who's wearing extremely intricate black, purple, and green-colored armor consisting of large shoulder extensions and also wears large metal earrings shaped like paws with skull emblems in it while carrying a large black-and-green bat-themed Macuahuitl in his hands (Zatz, the Prince of Bats and God of the Moon), behind Frida were the images of not only Maria Posada, but also a curvaceous 15-year-old Mesoamerican native girl with brown skin, brown eyes, and short black hair, cut in an undercut buzz style, who's wearing brown-and-golden Mesoamerican Eagle Warrior armor while carrying a large brown-and-golden eagle-themed Macuahuitl in her hands (Princess Maya of Teca, Goddess of the Sun), behind Zoe were the images of not only Joaquin Mondragon Jr., but also a goddess who appears to be a 17-year-old Mesoamerican native girl with brown skin, magenta eyes, and long black/dark brown hair, apparently based on the Chola culture, and has her entire body tattooed in the shape of a snake that's glowing purple while wearing a purple and skirt with a golden belt, neck ring, pendant, kneepads, earrings, arm bracelets, and leg bracelets (Acat, Goddess of Tattoos), and behind Vice Principal Chakal were the images of not only the Bandit King Chakal, but also a humongous muscular monstrous humanoid with an ugly tusked face that appears to be two faces merged into one side-by-side and hands tipped with sharp claws while wearing Aztec armor consisting of a feathered headdress decorated with two serpent heads and two skulls, skull-patterned earplugs, a skull-patterned Aztec collar, shoulder plates decorated with two skulls and two serpent heads that each have a human skeleton-shaped decoration hanging from a thread underneath their mouths, a chestplate made of two skull-shaped decorations, two skull-themed arm bracelets, two arm gauntlets with skull patterns, a skull and monster-themed belt, and a pair of leg armor with skull-themed kneepads while carrying a pair of large fiery serpent-themed swords in his hands (Lord Mictlan, God of War and Ruler of the Underworld, as well as Xibalba's younger brother). (Aside From The Chakal Thing, Everything In This Paragraph Has Been Confirmed By Jorge R Guitierrez!)

"Just as I thought. Although, I don't know the others." Shintomaru said. "What others?" Emizel asked in confusion. "See for yourself." Shintomaru said, handing the binoculars back. Then, Emizel looked through the binoculars himself. "What the? Hey, do you guys know anything about this?" Emizel asked, handing the binoculars to the Candle Maker as he, Xibalba, La Muerte, and the Book of Life came down. The Candle Maker then looked through the binoculars himself. "Well, I'll be a monkey's uncle! Looks like Manny, Frida, Zoe, and Vice Principal Chakal are respectively reincarnated from Manolo Sanchez, Maria Posada, Joaquin Mondragon Jr., and the Bandit King Chakal all along!" The Candle Maker said in surprise. "Huh, and here I thought that the Vice Principal and the Bandit King sharing the same name as each other was just a mere coincidence!" Xibalba noted. "Wait, are you saying I was a guy in a previous life? And not just any guy, a guy who was previously in love with her?!" Zoe asked in horror, pointing to Frida. "Awkward!" Aurachnid said laughing out loud as the Book of Life opened to a random page as the Candle Maker alternated between the book and the binoculars. "Oh, this is interesting!" He said. "Really? What is it, this time?" Emizel asked in confusion.

"You might want to take a look at this, especially him!" The Candle Maker said, handing the binoculars to Xibalba. "Well, well, well! Looks like Manolo, Maria, Joaquin, and the Bandit King aren't actually the original incarnations, but rather the primary reincarnations, with Manny, Frida, Zoe, and the Vice Principal actually being the secondary reincarnations!" Xibalba noted. "Really? Then, who are the original people behind the first reincarnations?" Emizel asked. "Let's see, Manolo's past life is apparently Zatz, the Prince of the Batz, the half-human son of the Bat God Camazotz, and apparently became one with the Moon itself upon death, Maria's past life is Maya, the Princess of Teca, the half-human daughter of the Death Goddess Lady Micte, who happens to be my wife's other sister, and apparently became one with the sun after her own heroic death, Joaquin's past life is Acat, the Goddess of Tattoos, and Zatz's ex-girlfriend apparently, and Bandit King Chakal's past life is... "Xibalba said before noticing the figure behind the image of the Bandit King Chakal. "What the heck? Wait a minute, Oh No! No, no, no, no, no! Not Him!" Xibalba said in fright. "What's wrong now, Lord Xibalba?" Emizel asked in confusion. "The Bandit King's past life is none other than Lord Mictlan, the God of War, Lady Micte's husband, and, unfortunately, my incredibly evil and power-hungry younger brother!" Xibalba answered in fright, causing La Muerte and the Candle Maker to gasp in shock and horror while everyone else was incredibly confused.

"It's a very long story, one taking place far into the ancient Mesoamerican days!" The Candle Maker explained. "Heck, it's probably best to show you everything in addition to telling you!" He added as the Book of Life flipped it's pages and then opened itself up to show everyone the events that occurred in the Netflix series "Maya and the Three".

One hour later...

"So, after Maya sacrificed herself to destroy Lord Mictlan by stabbing his heart with her Macuahuitl Eagle Claw while inside of his giant two-headed snake form at the same time that he attacked her with his fire breath, Maya became a giant Golden Eagle Spirit and merged herself with the Sun while her lover Zatz turned into a giant Silver Bat Spirit and merged himself with the Moon, so that he and Maya would forever dance with each other over the Earth!" The Candle Maker said as the story was finished. Needless to say, the heroes were moved by that whole story in tears, especially Lucy. "What a heroic way to die, and a beautiful romantic ending!" Lucy said before crying loudly. "And it seems they got reincarnated twice into who you see here." La Muerte said.

"Now, before you guys ask, truth is that none of us four or the other members of the Afterlife Council were actually involved in their reincarnation process, especially since we obviously weren't even aware of it to begin with!" Xibalba said. "Really? Does that mean that they reincarnated on their own in some way?" Clyde asked. "Hmmm, could be! I mean, their first incarnations were gods, so it's quite possible! Although, if they had help, maybe my brother got involved with the reincarnation of Zatz, Maya, and Acat, and later on Manolo, Maria, and Joaquin!" The Candle Maker theorized. "You have a brother too?!" Emizel asked in surprise. "Oh, yes, I do! He goes by the name of The Creator, and he's the ruler of the Land of the Blessed, a realm in this world where Angels and other celestial beings live!" The Candle Maker said. "You mean it's like the equivalent of Heaven?" Sakura asked. "Or Celestia in my universe?" Emizel asked. "In a way, yes, it is!" The Candle Maker confirmed. "As for how Mictlan got reincarnated into the Bandit King Chakal, and later on Vice Principal Chakal, I have a sneaking suspicion that El Chamuco might be involved in this, since the Bandit King went to my no-good older brother's realm, the Land of the Cursed, after his death, last time I've checked, since that's where that most evil souls end up after they die!" Xibalba surmised in suspicion. "So, from I'm guessing, the Land of the Cursed is the equivalent of Hell in this world, especially since your older brother's name literally means "The Devil" in Spanish, right?" Lisa asked. "When you put it that way, yes it is, especially since it's a literal realm of fire and brimstone anyways!" Xibalba noted in confirmation. Everyone cringed at that.

"Yeah, it's really that bad! Practically a whole lot worser than the Land of the Forgotten or my twin sister's realm, the Land of the Unknown, which a realm filled by twisting spiral shapes and populated by the souls of John and Jane Does, as in people that nobody can identify, souls of all the magical beings that have passed, and Alebrijes!" La Muerte said, catching the attention of the Alebrijes allied with the heroes. "You mean that there actually are Alebrijes in this universe, not counting the Alebrije Monster, that is?" Callocelotarling asked in surprise. "There certainly are, though, last time I've seen them, their body shapes and sizes are practically a lot more varied than all of you here, plus I'm entirely sure if any of them are capable of speech like you all!" La Muerte said.

Suddenly, Maria Rivera a.k.a. Plata Peligrosa, started behaving erratically as he left metal glove started glowing red. "Oh No! I forgot reset my timer!" Maria Posada said before her mind immediately warped as she suddenly started to laugh manically and let out a Valkyrie war cry with an insane smile, right before she eyed the Animarius Generals. "Why do I suddenly have a bad feeling about this?" Megalonis asked before Plata Peligrosa punched him in the face so hard, that all of his teeth were knocked out while he was sent flying across the stadium and crashed into a wall *CRASH!*. Plata Peligrosa then charged towards Goliathus and grabbed him by the legs before repeatingly smacking him around the floor, which he got trapped in once she's done with him. Then, Plata Peligrosa gave Tyrannis a hard uppercut with her left metal glove and sent him sailing upwards high into the air before he came crashing down and left an impression on the floor. After that happened, Plata Peligrosa eyed Terriblis, who fearlessly charged towards her with his poison-coated spear, only for the unhinged superheroine to affectively dodge him and then grabbed his spear while he's still holding it and then spun him around multiple times before throwing him towards Aquilis as he then crashed onto her. Afterwards, Plata Peligrosa went and grabbed Ophiucus by his tail and then started to flail him around like a ribbon, toss him around like a jump rope, and then partially tie his upper body before swinging him around like a lasso. "HELP! SHE'SSSS GONE SSSSTARK-RAVING MAD!" Ophiucus yelled helplessly in fright.

"Woah, what's happening?" Lincoln asked. "It's the glove! If Maria wears it for longer than an hour, she goes, as that snake just described, stark raving mad!" Rodolfo explained. "Where the heck did she even get that Glove from, anyway?" Ronnie Anne asked in confusion. "Apparently, back when my Mom was in college, she was at a party where someone brought some mystic objects of power and she tried one of them on, which so happens to be glove itself! At first, she enjoyed her superheroing thing, but unfortunately, the glove made her addicted to danger, so she had to give up wearing the glove in order to maintain her sanity, I think!" Manny explained. "Yikes!" Clyde said. "Question, since that left-handed metal glove is big, is it possible that there's an identical-looking metal glove meant to be worn in the right hand?" Lunastura asked. "We'll find that out later, right now, we need to snap my beloved back to her senses before she goes too far!" Rodolfo declared. Laird then focused his telekinesis on the glove.

Plata Peligrosa then quickly felt the glove getting telekinetically pulled off her left hand. "Come on!" Laird said, pulling back. "Hey! Let go, you little punk!" Plata Peligrosa yelled as she then tossed Ophiucus away before shooting out a beam of electricity from her left metal glove right at Laird. Fortunately, Ronnie Anne was able to use her powers to harmlessly redirect the electricity up into the sky before Phixia joined Laird in using her telekinesis to help remove the glove. Despite all of Plata Peligrosa's struggling, the glove finally got pulled off, causing her revert back to Maria Rivera. Before breathing a sigh of relief. "Thanks for that!" Maria said before Ophiucus slithered as fast as he could through the portal Cerberion opened up earlier. "Wow, Manny-kun, your mom practically beaten all of the Generals, minus Leo, and even got one them scared of her!" Sakura said. "Can you blame him though?" Aurachnid asked.

Maria then noticed the still beaten up Megalonis, Goliathus, Tyrannis, and Terriblis, the latter still on top of Aquilis. Maria cringed at this as King Draco sighed in annoyance. "Return to the castle, we'll handle things from here." He told his generals. "Yes, your Majesty!" The Generals replied shamefully as Tyrannis got up and then pulled Goliathus out of the floor, Terriblis got off of Aquilis, and Megalonis pulled himself out of the wall he crashed into, right before all of the Generals left through the portal. "Not looking so good for you, huh, Drako?" Mikey taunted. King Draco growled angrily at that. "Easy, old friend, let us handle them!" Futaba said as he and the other Shadow Angels rose up. "Guys, I'm suddenly getting a bad feeling about this!" Mikey said in worry. "Balby, clearly they aren't going to listen to reason. Perhaps we should bring that out." La Muerte suggested. "I couldn't agree more, Muertita!" Xibalba replied with a knowing grin. "Only question is, who should it be given to? We certainly don't want a repeat of their past lives!" He said, pointing to Zoe and Chakal.

Suddenly, something started flying out of his pocket on its own, specifically a medal that's black in the shape of a heart with grey spikes around its sides, an emerald green flame-shaped crystal structure on the top, and light-green-and-dark-green-striped fabric on the bottom, as well as decorated with a white skull with red eye and nose sockets in the middle with two green wings at said skull's side, much to the confusion of Xibalba. "The Medal of Everlasting Life!" Zoe and Chakal recognized thanks to the memories of their past life that flooded into their brains. "Bably, what did you do to the Medal of Everlasting Life?" La Muerte asked in shock and confusion as said Medal flew around on its own. "I'm afraid even I don't know, Mi Amor! The Medal never moved around on its before, let alone fly!" Xibalba answered. The Medal then flew onto Aurachnid. "Huh? What's going on?" Aurachnid asked in confusion. Clyde and Aurachnid then started glowing. "Hey, I think that Medal might be a way to give us a new form!" Clyde realized. "Hey, I'm thinking you might be right, Clyde! Let's try it out!" Aurachnid said. "Right, Aurachnid!" Clyde said as he removed Aurachnid, with the Medal of Everlasting Life still attached to the top center of the latter's abdomen, from his belt and then had Aurachnid bit him with his fangs, injecting him with further enhanced venom. Clyde then reattached Aurachnid to his belt.

Everlasting Spider On!

Clyde then got covered in an emerald green light as it altered and enhanced his armor, specifically by giving his golden spider web patterns some red and green decals, giving his spider symbol a winged skull on the abdomen and a spiked black heart in the background, make his shoulder armor resembling those of Xibalba, add some spikes to the four spider legs on his back while also giving him large black wings like those of Xibalba, albeit less jagged and added red, gold, and green decals to the feathers, adding a necklace resembling the Candle Maker's necklace around his neck, made his dark purple bodysuit turn bright gold with Aztec-styled tattoos on his arms resembling those seen on the Candle Makers arms, added bracelets resembling those of the Candle Maker around his wrists, and turned the color pattern of his helmet into the same calavera skull patterns as La Muerte's face (minus the eye shadow and lipstick, and having added green patterns around the big primary eyes) while also making his eyes turn white with red forward-facing skull markings in the middle, and giving him a large red sombrero on top of his head resembling La Muerte's sombrero (which also had an added structure resembling Xibalba's horned crown in the center top). Plus, in his hands, he was given a red, gold, and green patterned calavera skull-themed acoustic guitar with golden flaming candles attached to the top of his skull-themed headstock, some marigold flowers decorated on the sides of its body, and a closed book-like structure resembling the Book of Life attached to the bottom of its body. Once the transformation was completed, Clyde strummed the guitar a little bit before he and Aurachnid announced "Kamen Rider Anansi, Everlasting Spider Mode!" in a heroic pose.

"Okay, this is actually pretty cool." Clyde said. That sight that made Xibalba's jaw drop cartoonishly past his chest in shock, just like how Manolo Sanchez won against his wager decades ago. "Well, that definitely never happened before with the previous wearers of the Medal!" The Candle Maker noted before snapping Xibalba's jaw back to normal like a draw curtain. "Interesting." La Muerte said. Shibogumon, on the other hand, was quite surprised by Clyde's new form. "Well, this is unexpected! Never knew you can gain a new form! But, on the bright side, for me at least, it makes you a better opponent!" Shibogumon said be charging towards Clyde with his spider fang arm blades out. Unfortunately for him, the moment his blades struck Clyde's body, they shattered like glass, much to the Dark Rider's shock and confusion. "What?! But how?!" Shibogumon asked in shock "Whoever wears the Medal cannot die or be injured!" Manny said, remembering La Muerte's words to Manolo when he first learned about the Medal after he revealed Xibalba's cheating to her.

"You seriously gave something so dangerous to a mortal over something as stupid as a bet?" Lori asked Xibalba. "Hey, you have to understand something." Xibalba said, grabbing the Book of Life and opening it to a page depicting a beautiful land filled with flowers, life, and happiness. "This is the Land of the Remembered." He said before flipping it over to a page depicting the exact opposite. "And this is the Land of the Forgotten, which would you rather spend eternity as your domain?" He asked. "Since I'd rather be remembered, I'd take the former!" Lori answered. "Yeah, I would second that! While I do like dark and dreary places myself, but if it means being forever forgotten by my friends and family, then it's just not worth it!" Lucy said. "Exactly!" Xibalba said. "The Land of the Forgotten was so drab, dreary, miserable, and rather boring that I'd rather rule over the Land of the Remembered, just so that I'd would actually have a place to actually enjoy myself!" He added.

"So you cheated by not only giving Joaquin such a powerful medal but also sicing your pet snake on Maria and Manolo!" La Muerte said angrily, pulling his beard. "Ow! Yes! Again, Sorry, Muertita!" Xibalba said apologetically. "Wow, I hope you and I don't get into arguments that much, Bobby Boo-Boo Bear!" Lori said to Bobby in worry. "Yeah, no kidding." Bobby said. Once Clyde noticed that Shibogumon's arm blades were rendered useless by his new form, he smirked under his helmet before swinging his guitar and shouted "KABONG!" as he smashed said weapon on the Dark Rider's head *KABONG!*. This actually knocked Skeletron's head off it's shoulders! "Wait, that guy's a robot?!" Frida asked in shock and confusion upon noticing that Skeletron's headless body was seen sparking up from its neck before falling over. "Yeah, the real Kamen Rider Armadeiras is right there." Lincoln said pointing to Shibogumon.

"Okay, you've won this round, I'll admit that, but don't expect that to happen a second time, cause I'm not through with you just yet! Besides, I'd better get Skeletron fixed back up immediately before I can get back into battle!" Shibogumon said as he detached himself from Skeletron's belt while Cerberion sighed as he picked up Skeleton's body and head before he and the cybernetic spider left through the portal back to the Animarius Castle. "So, he's actually a robot spider?" Manny asked in confusion. "He was a Brazilian Wandering Spider motif kaijin, which is a type of humanoid cyborg monster, who served this villainous organization with quite the history with the Kamen Riders named Shocker, but thanks to this technique taught to him by Go-sempai's father, he was able to transfer his soul into what you see here when his original body was destroyed." Sakura explained. "Not only that, but it turned out that before he was even a Kaijin, he was a human serial killer known as the Wandering Spider, with his real name being Shijima Kumonosuke who so happens to be Go-sempai's maternal uncle!" She added.

"Yikes, sounds like you have one crazy family!" Frida told Go. "You should see his sister, aka my wife." Shinnosuke joked. "Seriously, she used be all stoic and robot-like in behavior, not to mention that was being like a stalker or a manager, as she had constantly took notes of my own habits and meticulously counting them, including the number of times my brain enters "top gear"!" He added. "You still married her, though, Shin-niisan!" Go said. "She was your sister first!" Shinnosuke pointed out. "Well let's just be glad she's back in our world and not this one!" Go said with a chuckle. "Speaking of which, did either of you two told her about Shibogumon's true identity yet?" Lincoln asked both Shinnosuke and Go, to which they both flinched. "Uh, we did, and, well, she didn't take the revelation of her and Go having an evil uncle very well!" Shinnosuke said nervously. Everyone winced at that. "Yeah, Onee-chan was very horrified and upset, to say the least!" Go said. "I can imagine!" Shintomaru said.

Just then, Golshi tried his luck against Clyde, only for the latter to not only successfully block the former's attack without any damage to himself, but it also caused Preternatural Strength Angel to roar in pain as he ended up injuring his arms. "Dang, that form's ultra powerful! Makes me wish that can get a new form here too!" Lincoln said. Suddenly, Lincoln noticed his driver and Manny's belt buckle glowing while Sakura noticed her driver and the Mexican Fire Opal Manny got earlier glowing as well. "Whoa! Hey, Manny, you thinking what I'm thinking?" Lincoln asked Manny. "That I should combine my belt over top of yours?" Manny guessed. "Exactly what I was thinking!" Lincoln confirmed. "Worth a shot!" He said, removing his belt, causing him to return to normal and his pants to accidentally fall down and expose his Zebra Donkey-printed underwear, which made Sakura and Frida snicker a little bit. "Whoops! Sorry about that!" Manny apologized with a little blush as he pulled his pants back up before giving his El Tigre Belt to Lincoln. "Well, here goes nothing!" Lincoln said as he then attached the El Tigre Belt in front of his driver, with the belt buckle in the center and the strap wrapped around the sides of his driver and belt strap. "Okay, now what?" Lincoln asked in confusion. "Spin the buckle! It's the only way to activate the El Tigre powers!" Manny said. "Oh, of course!" Lincoln said as he then spun the bucket of the El Tigre Belt. Unexpectedly, that caused Manny to turn into a greenish fiery spirit, much to his confusion. "Holy Chalupa! What's going OOOOOOON!?" Manny asked in confusion as he was sucked into the driver while dropping the Mexican Fire Opal, which Sakura immediately caught before it could hit the floor. Once that was done, Lincoln's driver then automatically activated its touchscreen and typed down a new code.

3-3-0-7, Tigre!

That caused Lincoln to get enveloped in the same emerald green flames that turned Manny into El Tigre, causing his armor to change into the same color patterns and attributes as El Tigre, with his bodysuit becoming completely black, his chest armor becoming mostly black with orange tiger stripes as well as having his LL symbol still intact, his upper arms gaining two pairs of tattoo-lile blue stripes like those seen on the original El Tigre, his arm armor becoming black with red stars on them, his gloves gaining long grey metallic claws on the fingers, his armored boots turning brown with some stylized tiger-like claws at front, his neck gaining a red scarf similar to Manny's, his back gaining a red flowing cape similar to the original El Tigre's, albeit a lot less tattered, his rear end gaining a flexible tiger tail, and his helmet becoming black with emerald green eyes and gaining a mouthplate modeled after a tiger's mouth, teeth included, El Tigre's signature 'T' symbol on the upper forehead above LL's antenna-like crest, white furry sideburns at the middle sides, and stylized tiger ears at the upper sides. Then, after letting out a Tiger-like roar and striking El Tigre's signature pose, the new form announced "Kamen Rider LL, Tigre Mode!" in both Lincoln and Manny's voices at once, much to everyone's shock.

"Okay, this is weird." Manny said from within a mindscape where he and Lincoln were. "Eh, not exactly first time this has happened to me, so, just go with it." Lincoln shrugged as Sakura looked at the Mexican Fire Opal. "I wonder." She said. Before placing it in her driver.

Mexican Fire Opal!

She then activated her transformation. That caused her to get covered in lava that quickly hardened around her into a lava stone chrysalis, right before it burst open to reveal Sakura in a brand new form. Her body suit was now fiery reddish orange while having fiery reddish orange lava-themed patterns on her helmet, chest, skirt, gloves, and boots and she had the Mexican Fire Opal attached to the center of her tiara, which now had Lava-shaped points and an erupting volcano-shaped structure in the center top set above the Mexican Fire Opal. Plus, her four other sacred gemstones were still attached to her gloves and boots while her skirt now has the appearance of a ruffled miniskirt with lava flow patterns. Not only that, but her helmet's eyes were now a bright fiery reddish orange color while her wings were also fiery reddish orange with flowing lava patterns to match her new form. "Kamen Rider Jewel, Volcano Mode!" Sakura announced as globs of lava burst out behind her. Cerberion chuckled. "Get as strong as you want, Jewel, that will make our upcoming battle all the better!" He declared.

Then, without flinching, Sakura summoned a glob of lava before throwing it at Cerberion. This lava hit him. "Bad dog! Stay down!" Sakura said angrily. "What's her deal?" Rodolfo asked. "Cerberion killed her parents, older brother, and unborn baby brother and sister and now has a sick, twisted obsession with killing her on the day of an upcoming Solar Eclipse." Lori explained. That made Rodolfo and Jorge gasp in shock. "Tell us about it!" Lori said. Just then, as Cerberion was groaning in pain from the lava that hit his chest, his injury quickly healed itself, much to everyone's shock and confusion. Cerberion then chuckled. "You are definitely Ryu and Naturia's descendant, Jewel, but it's going to take a lot more than molten rock to put me down!" He declared. That made Sakura frightened a little bit. "Don't show fear, Sakura-chan, that's exactly what he wants!" Naturia said.

It wasn't long before Cerberion took notice of Naturia in her orb amongst the heroes. "So, my most prized possession has decided to show up, haven't you?" Cerberion asked with a wicked grin. "Wipe that smirk off your face, Cerberion, thanks to my training, come the eclipse, it will be you who falls!" Naturia said. "Hah! We'll see about that, Naturia!" Cerberion said, clearly not afraid. He then started laughing maniacally.

Rider Shooting!

A blast from the Drake Glip hit Cerberion in the face. "That ought to shut him up!" Daisuke said. That made Cerberion growl angrily while he quickly healed up from that attack. "Don't push your luck, punk!" Cerberion said angrily. "Blah, blah, blah, eat this!" Sartana called, strumming her guitar, summoning more skeletons. "That guitar is the source of Sartana's powers, if we take it out, she can't do anything!" Manny said. "You're gonna have to get past us first, heroes!" El Machete declared as he and Django, along with Futaba, Moroha, Otoha, Lensi, Shila, and Johannes, blocked the heroes' path. "Hey, punks!" Ronnie Anne called as everyone turned to see her and the core eight Lucharangers in their MaxLucha Modes, the Sacred Lucha Bomber above their heads. "Eat this!" She said. "Sacred Lucha Bomber!" They called, tossing the finisher at the skeletons and Shadow Angels.

'

While the Skeleton Banditos were all obliterated, the Shadow Angels, plus El Machete and Django, on the other hand, were only able to take minor damage from that attack. "Nice try, but no enchilada, kids!" El Machete said. "Dang it!" The core eight Lucharangers complained. After that, El Machete pulled a big metal spiked and bladed rock guitar with three necks, three headstocks, and three sets of six strings along the three necks and headstocks (making a total of 18 strings) from out of nowhere before playing it with his one right hand and three left hands, producing a loud heavy metal musical score before firing out multiple waves of dark red energy beams from his instrument at the Lucharangers, causing them to be sent flying from the resulting explosion. "Well that wasn't fun!" Ronnie Anne complained. "El Machete has a mystic guitar of his own?!" Manny asked in shock. "Of course I do! I'm Sartana's son, after all! It came with me after my birth! Of course, I've had it modified over the years to make it more durable and cool to fit my tastes, and also so that it can be used with my three left arms in addition to my only right one, though I usually don't use my instrument unless the situation calls for it!" El Machete explained.

"Great, just great, how are we supposed to deal with that?!" Aurachnid asked in annoyance. "Wait, why don't we fight him, guitar-against-guitar?" Clyde quickly thought, holding his new form's guitar. "Fine, but just in case, get the Pinata ready, Davi!" Manny said. "Okay!" Davi said while holding said Pinata on a string. "So, challenging me to a guitar battle, eh? Fine then, I haven't been challenged to one in a long time! Let's see if you're a worthy opponent!" El Machete said before playing his guitar again. "I'm gonna go all "Guitar Hero" on your butt!" Clyde declared as he played his own guitar, which made a more epic rock kind of music compared to the heavy metal music of El Machete's guitar. Soon, both guitars charged up energy beams (emerald green in Clyde's case) from their headstocks (three headstocks in the case of El Machete's guitar) before both Clyde and El Machete fired said beams at each other, causing the beams to clash and then push and pull against one another while both opponents kept on playing their guitars. "Whoa! I've heard of a 'Battle of the Bands', but not at that level!" Luna said in awe. "Come on!" Clyde said as Aurachnid hopped on the guitar. He then climbed all the way up it's neck before he attached himself on top of the guitar's headstock.

Everlasting Spider Sonata!

That caused the Book-shaped structure on the lower body of the guitar to open up and flip around it's pages as energy contructs of musical scores and notes flew out of it and formed into a large spider web that wrapped itself around the headstock to enhance its energy beam. This managed to overpower Machete's attack and strike him dead on! That also caused El Machete's guitar to get blown to smithereens. "Nice one!" Lincoln said. "Yeah! That was epic! Do it again!" Frida said in excitement. "Why you little!" El Machete said, just as he was starting to disintegrate, much to his chagrin. "Oh, drat! Forgot that my guitar is my lifeline, just like my mother's! Looks you've defeated me for now, that only means that I'll be heading to the Land of the Cursed to be regenerated and my guitar to get repaired! In other words, I'll be back!" El Machete said as he was about to be completely disintegrated, just as Cianán approached him. "I don't think so! Demhain be Sealaithe!" He called, triggering the magic on a stone jar. "Huh? What do you think you're doing?!" El Machete asked in confusion just as the stone started to suck him into it.

"What's happening?!" He asked in horror. "This is a stone jar that Demon Hunters like me and my family use to seal away dangerous demons so that they don't cause trouble! So, instead of letting you go to the Land of the Cursed and get yourself regenerated to cause trouble in this world again, I'm sealing you away in this jar and making sure that you don't get out!" Cianán explained. "Oh crud." Machete said as he was completely sucked in before Cianán closed the jar. "Do whatever you want with him..." Ciannan said, tossing the jar to Emiliano. "As long as that lid is secure and that jar is intact, he's not going anywhere!" Ciannan promised. "Good idea!" Emiliano noted. "Who's next?" Lincoln asked. That's when Futaba and Moroha stepped in. "Leave them to us, you focus on Sartana!" Soji said as he and Arata, still their Hyper Forms, stood their ground against the two Shadow Angel Dark Riders.

"Bring it on, humans!" Moroha declared. "You asked for it, Daisuke, Cayenne, Kagura!" Soji said, raising the Perfect Zecter. "Okay!" Daisuke, Cayenne, and Kagura said. Before allowing their Zecters to launch off, deactivating their transformations, and attaching themselves to the Perfect Zecter, which allowed Souji to press all of the buttons on it.

Kabuto Power! TheBee Power! Drake Power! Sasword Power! All Zecter Combine!

Souji then charged up the blade of the Perfect Zecter before triggering the finisher.

Maximum Hyper Typhoon!

Then, with a mighty swing, Souji had the Perfect Zecter release energy in the form of a tachyon-charged rhinoceros beetle horn-shaped gradient, and used it in the form of a powerful slash attack straight at Futaba and Moroha.

Rider Reaping! Ox, Divine Punishment!

Charging their weapons, Futaba and Moroha tried to counter the Maximum Rider Typhoon, but it was too much for them, and they were sent crashing into the wall, their transformations being forced to end. That made the rest of the Shadow Angels stop and go back to their comrades in concern. "You will pay for that, humans, Lensi!" Johannes said as Lensi nodded before opening up a portal, allowing a Cherubim soldier with six arms each ending with a machete blade walked through! "Another mechanical monstrosity?!" Rodolfo asked in shock. "Mou!" Sakura complained. "And it's not the only one!" Lensi said as not only Cherubim Sur le Kubera appeared from the same portal, but another Cherubim, which is primarily purple, magenta, and lavender with a pair of medium wing-shaped structures at the sides of its head, a scarf-like garment wrapped around where the mouth should be, large purple shoulder armor, magenta hip armor, four magenta insect leg-like structures at the rear end, brown belt-like straps hanging from the chest, and two huge lobster-like claws for hands (Cherubim Iskuron, Moroha's personal Cherubim soldier), came down along with it. "Sur le Kubera and Iskuron, Otoha and Moroha's personal Cherubims!" Mikage, taking temporary control of Zen Fudo, said. "You still up for it, Moroha?" Otoha asked Moroha.

"Hell, yes, I am! I may be out of my Rider form, but that doesn't mean I'm out for the count!" Moroha said in excitement. "You haven't changed a bit." Otoha said before playing her song. That allowed her to enter Cherubim Sur le Kubera while also allowing Moroha to enter Cherubim Iskuron and Futaba to enter the six-armed and machete bladed Cherubim Soldier. "I've already arranged for the components of Sun Vulcan Robo and DynaRobo to be able to come here, they along with Zenryoku ZenkaiOh and TwoKaiOh should at least buy us enough time to handle things down here before joining up with you." AkaRed told the Sun Vulcan, Dynaman, and Zenkaigers. "Right!" The three veteran Sentai Teams replied. Before a portal opened up, allowing the Jaguar Vulcan and DyJupiter to fly through. "What are those ships?" Frida asked in confusion. "The Jaguar Vulcan and DyJupiter, onboard are the components for our mechs." Hokuto explained.

As he said that, the two carrier ships landed gently down onto a clearing in the ground. "Ikuze!" Takayuki said as they all ran inside before the Jaguar Vulcan opened up, revealing the jet like Cosmo Vulcan. "Cosmo Vulcan, hashin!" Takayuki declared. The Cosmo Vulcan then flew out. The Bulldozer/Crane/Tank/Leg like Bull Vulcan then took position. "Bull Vulcan, Hashin!" Kinya called. "Hashin!" Asao called. Bull Vulcan then rolled out of Jaguar Vulcan like a Bulldozer. "Gattai! Grand Cross!" Takayuki called. "Gattai!" Kinya called. "Gattai!" Asao called. Then, Cosmo Vulcan flew into the air before folding itself to form the torso, head, and upper arms. Then, Bull Vulcan rearranged itself and split itself in two to form the feet and legs, which then connected with the already transformed Cosmo Vulcan. "Change, Sun Vulcan Robo!" Takayuki called. "Change!" Kinya called. "Change!" Asao called. Then, as the Sun Vulcan Robo flashed its eyes, a pair of lower arms and fists were launched out of the back of its feet before merging with the Mecha's upper arms, completing the combination sequence. "DynaMach, hashin!" Hokuto called as his jet mech flew out of the top of DyJupiter.

"DynaMobile, Hashin!" Ryuu and Yousuke called as their flying land buggy mech flew out of DyJupiter's middle compartment. "DynaGarry, hashin!" Kousaku and Rei called as their trailer truck-like mech rolled out of DyJupiter's bottom compartment. "Gattai, Grand Slam!" Hokuto called. That's when DynaGarry folded and split itself apart to form the feet and legs, DynaMobile rearranged itself to form the arms and torso, and DynaMach flipped and straightened itself to form the head, which then connected with the already transformed DynaMobile in midair before the already transformed DynaGarry rocketed itself upwards and did the same thing, completing the combination sequence. "Kansei! DynaRobo!" The Dynaman called out as the completed DynaRobo landed gently on the ground and did a pose. "Kaito!" Isau called, tossing the Zenryoku Zenkai Cannon to Kaito.

"Thank You, Tou-san!" Kaito said. "Ikuze, min'na!" Kaito told the other Zenkaigers. "Right!" They said, flipping their personal Zenkai Gears and then cranking the dials on their Geartlingers. Before firing them in the air.

Big Bang! Go! Go! Go-Go Go! Zenkai Juran/Gaon/Magine/Vroon!

That caused all four Kikainoids enlarged themselves into giants before Juran transformed into a mechanical T-Rex, Gaon transformed into a robotic Lion, Magine transformed into a robotic European Dragon, and Vroon transformed into Dump Truck. "Let's do this!" Kaito said, triggering the Zenryoku Zenkai Cannon's transformation into the Zenryoku Eagle.

Zenryoku Eagle! Iza! Yukan!

"Did that gun just transform into a giant futuristic jet plane?" Frida asked in confusion. "Impressive, isn't it?" Isau asked. Kaito then jumped into the Zenryoku Eagle's cockpit, taking control of it. "Let's go, Zenryoku Zenkai Gattai!" Kaito called. "Okay!" Juran, Gaon, Magine, and Vroon replied.

Zenryoku Zenkai!

That's when MagineDragon converted into the right leg and detached her wings while VroonDump converted into the left leg and had his wheels attached themselves to both feet as they combined with the Zenryoku Eagle as it already flipped over to become the body. Then, JuranTyranno and GaonLion split their upper and lower bodies as the former became the right shoulder and arm while the latter became the right shoulder and arm. Then, as MagineDragon's wings attached themselves to the shoulders while the Kikainoids' weapons, the Juran Sword, Juran Shield, Gaon Claw, Magine Stick, and Vroon Picker, combined themselves into one big glaive weapon that stored itself on the combined Mecha's right hip, the structure at the top of the Mecha's body, which is marked with the number 45, split it's panels open to reveal a face, becoming the Mecha's head while the central disc on the combined Mecha's chest spun around a little bit, right before it grabbed the combined weapon and swung it around in a heroic pose.

Zenryoku ZenkaiOh!

"Ikuyo!" Kaito said. "Zenryoku ZenkaiOh!" All five Zenkaigers announced. "What the heck does Zenryoku mean?" Manny asked in confusion. "Full power." Sakura translated. "Which is appropriate, since that Mecha utilizes the power of all five of the core Zenkaigers!" AkaRed said. "Flint, bring in CrocoDaioh!" Zox called. "Okay!" Flint said as CrocoDaioh flew in. Before letting down a rope that Zox used to get on board. "Cuttaner, let's go!" He said. "Okay, Aniki!" Cuttaner said. "Kaizoku Gattai!" Zox called. As he said that, Cuttaner and Ricky (Goldsuiker) flew out of CrocoDaiOh and enlarged themselves. After that, Cutanner and Ricky (Goldsuiker) combined with CrocoDaiOh, with Cutanner forming the head and blade, Ricky (Goldsuiker) forming the left forearm merged with said blade, and CrocoDaiOh forming the body, left upper arm, full right arm, and legs.

TwoKaiOh Cutanner! Operation!

"TwoKaiOh Cutanner!" Zocks announced. "Okay, that's cool! Do either of you two have giant robots of your own?" Frida asked Stacey and Isau. "I had a few when I was on the side of the Tojitendo Dynasty, long story, but they were all destroyed in battle against the Zenkaigers." Stacey said. "As for me, when I was brainwashed by the Tojitendo Dynasty, and got upgraded by them into Hakaizer Kai, I was able to take on the form of a Kaiju Mecha called HaKaijuOh!" Isao explained. "However, after I was extracted from the mechanical monster's body, HaKaijuOh went berserk, so it was destroyed the Zenkaigers for good!" He added. "Yeah, that was a pretty crazy time." Stacy said. "So, in other words, you two are the only members of your team that currently don't have giant robots?" Frida asked. "Unfortunately." Stacey admitted. "Yikes, but while they're handling the Cherubims, we need to take care of Sartana!" Manny said. "Any ideas?" Lincoln asked.

"We can start by taking out her Skeleton Banditos!" Manny suggested. "Might as well! We can test out our combined power that way!" Lincoln noted, prompting Kamen Rider LL Tigre Mode to charge towards the Skeleton Banditos and then slash a few to pieces with his claws. Then, Kamen Rider LL Tigre Mode launched his clawed hands from chains right at some more Skeleton Banditos before retracting his hands back to his arms. "Okay, this thing is-ow-cool-ow." Lincoln said as the tail keeps whacking him. "Yeah, it happened to me the first time I've became El Tigre!" Manny said with a chuckle. "Well, it's annoying, hey how do you guys control these things?" Lincoln asked Yui and Makros. They just shrugged. "Gurrugans are born with tails, so I guess it's innate with us." Makros said. "And I didn't get my tail until after I took that Beauty Enhancement Potion, so the way I control it is through instinct!" Yui said. "Great." Lincoln said in annoyance.

"Why just use our tail to 'whip it', if you know what I mean?" Manny suggested to Lincoln. "Worth a shot!" Lincoln said. Kamen Rider LL Tigre Mode then started turning around and using his tiger tail like a whip and some more Skeleton Banditos. "Nice!" Lincoln said. "That's nothing! Here's some more moves I've got! Spin Cyclone!" Manny announced as Kamen Rider LL Tigre Mode spun around with his razor-sharp claws to make a literal shredding tornado that tore some Skeleton Banditos to pieces. "Claw Shot!" Manny announced as Kamen Rider LL Tigre Mode shooted his claws out like machine guns at more Skeleton Banditos, causing them to be blown to bits as the claws easily regenerated. "The Spinning Armadillo!" Manny announced as Kamen Rider LL then ran up a wall, jumped, spun with his claws to make the shape of an armadillo, dived, did some poses, and then kicked down a few more Skeleton Banditos. "Try doing that with me!" Sartana said, charging forward, only for Sakura to intercept with a club reminisce of the one used by Warrior God Ifrit.

"Out of my way, Fairy girl!" Sartana angrily declared. "You want to get to my boyfriend, you'll have to go through me!" Sakura said, knocking Sartana's head off her shoulders with a swing of her club. Of course, that didn't exactly faze Sartana in the slightest, especially since her knocked-off head got caught by Django. "OW! Oh, I hate when that happens!" Sartana complained. "Here, Nana Sartana, let me put your head back in place!" Django said as he placed Sartana's head back onto her neck. "Ah, gracias, Django, dearie." Sartana said. "De nada!" Django replied. "Let's end this, Sakura!" Lincoln said, summoning the screen. "Right!" Sakura said, placing the Mexican Fire Opal over her driver.

*-#, Final Attack!
Mexican Fire Opal, Gemstone Blitz!

"Ancient Tiger Kick!" Lincoln and Manny announced as Kamen Rider LL Tigre Mode jumped up and covered his right foot in emerald green flames that formed into a snarling tiger's head. "Hoseki Volcanic Kick!" Sakura announced as she too jumped into the air before having her right foot covered in a glob of Lava. "I'm joining in, too!" Clyde said as Aurachnid climbed down to Clyde's right leg and bit him there.

Everlasting Spider Break!

"Everlasting Spider Kick!" Clyde announced as a giant red, gold, and green colored energy construct that's shaped like a spider appeared behind Clyde before the latter jumped and had his right foot covered in red, gold, and green flaming energy, provided by the giant spider contruct via an energy breath. However, Sartana acted fast by grabbing Chakal and the Ninja Clan Leader and forcing them to take the brunt of the triple attack instead! That caused both villains to yell in pain before they exploded, resulting in their GaiaRisers and Gaia Memories shattering while Chakal and the Ninja Monster Clan Leader returned to normal and fell unconscious. "You can't get rid of me that easily!" Sartana said before noticing a small crack on her guitar. "Ah dang it!" She said. *Sigh* "I'm probably going to regret this, but Davi, have at it!" Manny said.

"Finally!" Davi said before singing his trademark 'Ride of the Valkyries'-esque song. "Albino Burrito, Albino Burrito, Albino Burrito! Hero Supreme!" as he swung his signature Power Pinata of Punishment on a string like a chained mace, right before he smacked Pinata right onto Sartana's mystic guitar. Resulting in a massive explosion with the literal power of a thousand suns, much to the heroes' shock and awe. "What the heck?!" Lincoln asked as the explosion settled. "I told you." Manny said. "I wonder how Paulie-kun and Fergy-kun would react to something like that!" Sakura said. "Probably be outwardly terrified!" Clyde noted. "Definitely!" Aurachnid said. "Who are Paulie and Fergy?" Frida asked in confusion. "Friends of ours who are living pinatas from an island full of them that are afraid of going to parties and getting smashed, Fergy-kun especially!" Sakura explained.

"As for what kind of Pinatas they are, well, Paulie is a Pretztail, which is a Fox Pinata, while Fergy is a Fudgehog, which is a Hedgehog Pinata that has a large camel-like hump on the back instead of quills!" Clyde explained. "That sounds so kawaii!" Yui said. "Hey, look!" Aurachnid said, pointing to a large crater, in the center of which was a wrecked guitar. "Nice work, Davi!" Manny said as he seperated from Lincoln. "Thanks!" Davi said as Sartana's laugh filled the air. "You honestly think you've won?!" She asked as everyone saw a giant Sartana rise from the smoke of the explosion. "WHAT?! THAT'S NOT SUPPOSED TO HAPPEN!" Manny asked in shock and confusion. "Yeah! How Are You Still Even Here?! Aren't Ya Supposed To Disintegrate Like The Last Few Times We've Destroyed Your Mystic Guitar?!" Frida asked in equal shock and confusion. "Normally yes, but thanks to the full power my wings gave me, I was able to absorb the energy my guitar had!" Sartana said.

That made everyone on the heroes' side facepalm in frustration. "And just to make things more interesting!" Stephano said, pulling out four Kaiju Memories. He then tossed them over to Django, Zoe, Carmelita, and Pachita. Smirking, they all clicked the button.

Kaiju!

Before inserting them into their GaiaRisers.

Skeleton!/Raven!/Vulture!/Turkey! Kaiju GaiaVolve!

That's when all four Dopants had their forms surrounded by differently colored egg-shaped energy cocoons (white-and-platinum for Django, purple-and-platinum for Zoe, green-and-platinum for Carmelita, and orange-and-platinum for Pachita) that rose up into the air and grew several times larger before bursting open to reveal them in new forms, with the Skeleton Dopant now in the form of a massive Godzilla-like skeleton with six long arms, six huge bone wings with boney feathers, and twelve horns on his head in addition to the back crest made of bones, the Raven Dopant now in the form of a giant nonhumanoid Raven with three heads, eight wings with claws in them, three legs with sharp talons, and three eyes on each head, with the middle head still having the purple horned mask of her original form, the Vulture Dopant now in the form of a giant nonhumanoid Vulture with twelve wings, five heads, and four feet with long sharp talons, and the Turkey Dopant now in the form of a humongous nonhumanoid Turkey with four wings, seven heads (with six of them surrounding the main head), six feet with sharp claws, and a set of massive spread-out tail feathers that are shaped like sword blades.

"Now those are big birds!" Mikey joked. "Well, except for that skeleton that's clearly a Godzilla rip-off!" He added while pointing at the Skeleton Dopant. "Let's get them, guys!" Lincoln said. "Vectors, launch!" He, Sakura, and Clyde called, releasing their Vectors. Which caused them to grow to their original size. "Hey! What about me?! I'm still able to fight, you know!" Hogarito complained. "That's true, fire the enlargement ray!" King Draco ordered Cicadeath and Flygor. "At once, your Majesty!" Cicadeath said as he and Flygor fired up the Enlargement Raygun through a portal and had its rays hit Hogarito, causing him to grow large into the size of a Kaiju. "This is more like it!" Hogarito declared. "We're going to need LuchaPrime for this!" Ronnie Anne said. "Right!" The rest of the main Lucharangers replied. "Alebrije Henkei! Dai Alebrije Gattai!" They shouted, quickly combining into their 11 piece mech. "LuchaPrime, awaken!" They shouted, soon joined by the Auxiliary Alebrije mechs.

"What in the world?!" Ronaldo asked in shock and confusion. "Hey, don't leave me out! Alebrije Henkei!" Frida called, taking on her own Alebrije mech form. "Frida?! What did you just turn into?!" Emiliano asked in shock. "No time for questions, Dad!" Frida said as Panopticon and Alraunellie summoned War Diablos and flew up to their shoulders, Alraunellie taking Desco with her. "I still got Daileon over here!" Juspion called out as Daileon already entered the scene with Giant Robot Sanchez. "And we're here as well!" Leo said as Aquarion TMNT was quickly formed. "We'd better get up there as well. Hey, we need a third person to pilot this!" Cayenne said, holding up one of Neo DEAVA's miniaturized Vectors. "Any volunteers?" He asked. "I'll go!" Davi said eagerly. Cayenne and Kagura looked at Zen. "Works for me." He said. "Dang It, I wanted to pilot a giant robot, for once!" Aden complained. "Follow our lead." Cayenne instructed Davi.

"Okay!" Davi said. "Vectors launch!" They called, getting onboard. "Gepard formation!" Cayenne called. "Right!" Kagura and Davi said. Soon Neo DEAVA's Gun bearing Aquarion formation was in action. "Aquarion Gepard!" Cayenne called. "Excuse Me, *Gasp!* But, *Gasp!* What the heck was that?!" Davi asked after feeling the affects of the Aquarion combination. "Don't worry, Davi-kun, it's normal, happens every time." Sakura said. "Seriously?! Every Time?!" Davi asked in shock. "Yeah, pretty crazy." Sakura said. "Skyring, descend!" Ronnie Anne called, summoning the Skyring. "Is that a giant wrestling ring in the sky?!" Rodolfo asked in surprise. "We use it to prevent collateral damage. Plus it looks cool and fits our Luchador motif." Ronnie Anne explained. "That's interesting, since it's too bad that collateral damage happens all the time in Miracle City!" Emiliano said. Before glaring at Manny who nervously chuckled. "Follow us if you dare!" Ronnie Anne said as LuchaPrime, the two Aquarions, and the Alebrije Mechs flew up with Daileon, Zenryoku ZekaiOh, TwokaiOh, Sun Vulcan Robo and DynaRobo being beamed on board.

"Oh, we will, especially after you, Frida Suarez!" Zoe said as the Dopants spread out their wings and flew up the Sky Ring while the three Cherubims levitated themselves upwards towards it. "I may be unable to fly or hover, but I have my own way to get up to high places!" Hogarito said as he then summoned a blob of water that he used to launch himself high enough to reach the Sky Ring. "Okay, I'm back!" Shibogumon said, walking through the portal. "Just in time, today, it's my turn!" Akuji said, pulling out Dark Vector Mortem. Stephano then pulled out Dark Vector Weather while Shibogumon pulled out Dark Vector Armadeiras. "Dark Vectors, launch!" The three dark riders called as the Dark Vectors took off and beamed them onboard. "Jaaku Gattai, Go Dark Aquarion!" Akuji called.

(Cue "Villain Invasion", an OST by Yuki Hayashi for the anime "My Hero Academia"!)

As soon as he said that, the Dark Vectors shot up to the sky in a triangular formation, with Dark Vector Mortem in the lead. First, Dark Vector Mortem had its sides and twin 'tails' separate and extend away from the main body, kind of like its transformation into the legs for Dark Aquarion Armadeiras, but instead of moving downwards, the parts moved towards the front hull and then stretched out at an angle before twisting halfway upwards and then, once the 'twin tails' folded upwards completely over the sides, having the sides slide themselves towards the upper joint to form the armored shoulders while also revealing thin yet muscular robotic arms resembling those of Kamen Rider Mortem, right before a panel flipped downwards from the bottom of the Dark Vector's front hull. Next, just like with Vector Anansi when transformed for the Jewel formation, Dark Vector Armadeiras had its front leg parts spread away from each other before twisting around, extending, and opened up panels to form the upper wings while its spider leg-structures on its sides extended and opened up panels to form the lower wings. Then, Dark Vector Weather had its two turret guns detach themselves from the sides of the vehicle's nose before having its entire front section split itself in halves while the wings went and folded their flaps in before the split halves moved completely downwards and then extended themselves to form the legs, right before the two gun turrets returned and attached themselves to the ends of the legs to form the feet. As this was happening, the three Dark Riders felt the dark energy from their combination sequence. "OH, NOW THAT'S MORE LIKE IT! THE FEELING OF THIS COMBINATION IS BETTER THAN I'VE ANTICIPATED!" Akuji said as he felt the dark energy. "IT MOST CERTAINLY IS! THE FEELING MUST DEPEND ON WHICH FORMATION DARK AQUARION TAKES ON!" Shibogumon said as he too felt the dark energy. "THAT EXPLAINS THE FEELING DURING THE WEATHER FORMATION, ASIDE FROM THE POWER BOOST FROM THAT ECLIPSE BACK AT THAT EGYPT IN ANOTHER WORLD!" Stephano said while also feeling the dark energy. "TRUE! ANYWAY, LET'S BRING THIS THING TOGETHER!" Akuji said. "RIGHT!" Shibogumon and Stephano replied as the three Dark Vectors started coming together. First, Dark Vector Weather merged underneath Dark Vector Mortem, just as the bottom panel of the latter Dark Vector covered itself over the body of the former Dark Vector to form the crotchplate. Next, Dark Vecter Armadeiras attached itself to the back of Dark Vector Mortem, which had its most of its back section (back thruster included) detach itself to make room for it, to form the wings. Then, once the robotic hands of its arms started flexing their fingers, the cockpit of Dark Vector Mortem, which had five Wisp Horns like the Dark Rider it was modeled after, moved itself upwards to reveal the head, which looks exactly like a Mecha version of Kamen Rider Mortem's head (horns, face marking, and all). Once that happened, the detached back section of Dark Vector Mortem folded out a handle from the bottom that extended itself to the length of a long pole while also folding out a long scythe blade at the front, making it become a high-tech scythe with a thruster at the back, which was then caught in the hands of the newly formed evil Mecha. Afterwards, once it started swinging the scythe around in a villainous manner, Akuji shouted "DARK AQUARION! MORTEM!" as the Mecha, now named Dark Aquarion Mortem, finished in a Grim Reaper-like pose with its wings projecting out energy structures that resembled dark sinister jagged butterfly wings.

Before flying up to the Skyring. "Hey, look!" A citizen of Miracle City said, pointing up to the Skyring. That gained the rest of the citizens' attention. "A giant floating wrestling ring?" Principal Tonino asked in confusion. "The Skyring, it's meant to prevent collateral damage." Lisa said as she walked through the city. "Uh, who are you, little lady?" Principal Tonino asked in confusion. "Second youngest sister of one of the pilots of one of the giant robots that are currently fighting the one called Sartana of the Dead and her 'friends'." Lisa said, pointing out the giant Sartana. "Since when has Sartana of the Dead ever been that big?" Dr. Eugene L. Butterman asked in confusion. "Or had wings?" Principal Tonino asked as Mecha Pollon flew over to Lisa. "Excellent timing, my faithful robot canine." Lisa said, hooking up her computer to Mecha Pollon and began typing away. "Inspiration has once again struck, and with this, Sartana has met her match!" Lisa said.

Meanwhile, back at the Sky Ring...

"Mou! You completely ripped off the butterfly wing design of Aquarion Jewel!" Sakura complained as Aquarion TMNT was up against Dark Aquarion Mortem. "Yeah, what are you gonna do about it, little girl?" Akuji taunted. That made Sakura growl angrily. Akuji then heard Dark Vector Mortem's on board communicator ringing. "What do you two want?" He asked, seeing Cicadeath and Flygor on the other end. "Would this be a good time to mention that with Dark Aquarion Mortem, you can summon the Parka Ghosts to aid you in battle much like Kamen Rider Ghost can when using the Grateful Damashii?" Cicadeath asked. "Really? How interesting!" Akuji noted with a smirk. Before noticing a device to his right with a hole shaped like an Eyecon. "Let's try it out!" He said, loading four Eyecons into it before four Giant Eyecons were ejected out of Dark Aquarion's chest. The Eyecons then faded away to reveal giant versions of the Jessie James, Akhenaten, Mitsuhide, and Hernan Cortes Damashiis!

"What the Shell?!" Raph asked in shock and confusion. "Majika? He's seriously taking another page out of my book?!" Takeru asked in shock. "What do you mean by that?" Manny asked in confusion. "When I'm using my Grateful Damashii, which is my second-to-final form, I can summon the Parka Ghosts used by myself Makoto-niichan, and Alain to aide in battle." Takeru explained. "Oh, hey that Cortes guy I recognize, but who are the other three?" Manny asked. "Jesse James, famed American Outlaw and Gunslinger, Mitsuhide Akechi, a retainer of Japanese Daimyo Oda Nobunaga, but for reasons unknown to this day, betrayed him, leading to Nobunaga's seppuku, which is a ritualistic suicide, and Akhenaten, an Egyptian Pharoah and father of Tutankhamun who tried to erase everything the ancient Egyptians believed in by demanding instead of worshipping several gods, they worship one single sun deity!" Takeru explained.

"DID YOU JUST SAY THAT MITSUHIDE AKECHI IS HERE?!" Nobunaga called out from his Eyecon as it flew out of Makoto's pocket. "AND AKHENATEN?!" Tutankhamun asked, doing so as well. "AND JESSE JAMES?!" Billy the Kid asked, flying out of Takeru's pocket, confusing him. "Huh? Billy the Kid, historical records show you didn't even know Jesse!" Takeru pointed out. "Not personally, but I had heard of him." Billy the Kid said. "Really? How?" Alain asked in confusion. "Billy the Kid and Jesse James are both outlaws from 19th century America, their deaths were even only one year apart, Billy's in 1881, Jesse's in 1882." Takeru said. "Although he and I never met, word spreads fast in this game." Billy the Kid said. "That makes sense, since my father Justice Jaguar was a Wild West Sheriff in his prime!" Jorge noted. "Oh, don't get me started on those guys, especially Pat Garrett." Billy the Kid said. "Who?" Manny asked. "The Sherriff who slayed Billy the Kid during a shootout on July 14 1881 in Fort Sumner, New Mexico. If I remember my history correctly, the two of you were once friends." Takeru said. "Once being the key word." Billy the Kid said.

"When did you become friends with that Garrett guy before you became enemies?" Manny asked in confusion. "Well, I've attended his wedding alongside my gang, the Lincoln County Regulators!" Billy the Kid explained. "They would often drink and gamble together, but once Garrett became Sherriff on November 2, 1880, it went downhill from there." Takeru explained. "*Shudder!* Really tough break there, pal!" Manny said. "Tell me about it, I was only 21 when that bullet killed me!" Billy the Kid complained. "Is that why they called you 'the Kid'? Because you died so young?" Manny asked. "No, because of my youthfulness and slender build." Billy the Kid explained. "Plus, there's the fact that I became an outlaw at age 16, mainly for stealing food, on the account of that I needed to survive after becoming an orphan a year earlier, and getting arrested for that, then robbing a Chinese Laundry ten days later before getting arrested again, only for me to escape and then flee from the New Mexico Territory into the neighboring Arizona Territory!" He added.

"But he became an icon of the American West, his exploits being legends!" Takeru said. "Huh, that's interesting to know!" Manny noted. "Yes, Henry McCarty, alias William H. Bonney, alias Billy the Kid truly was one of the great historical figures of the Old West." Lisa said, walking up, Mecha Pollon next to her. "Oh, Lisa-chan, you saw what Dark Aquarion Mortem just did?" Takeru asked, pointing at the four summoned giant Damashiis that Akuji had summoned. "I did. Fortunately, they aren't the only ones with a new trick up their sleeves!" Lisa said, pressing a button on her laptop causing Mecha Pollon to open his mouth and reveal a new Vector! Appearance-wise, the Vector resembles the MSC-07 Albion from the 1991-1992 OVA "Mobile Suit Gundam 0083: Stardust Memory" and the 1992 movie follow-up "Last Blitz of Zeon", albeit colored in El Tigre's color patterns (mostly black with brown parts on the rear section and two front main hangers) with some added orange tiger stripes in the middle section and big wings, as well as having a mechanical tiger tail at the rear hull, having mechanical feline/Tiger-like front paws with sharp metallic gray claws in front of the two front main hangers, and a mechanical green-eyed Tiger's head where the Bridge/cockpit should be. "I call it...Vector Tigre!" Lisa said, handing the new Vector to Manny.

"Wait... This thing is for me?!" Manny asked in shock and surprise, with Raul, who's still attached to Manny's face, make a few surprised motions of his own. "Precisely!" Lisa said. That made Manny start to squeal in excitement upon realizing he's got his own personal vehicle. "I even took some inspiration from the Candle Maker's story on some of Vector Tigre's Aquarion formation's abilities." Lisa said. "How so?" Rodolfo asked in confusion. "No time for explanation, Vector launch!" Manny called before he tossed the new Vector into the air, allowing Vector Tigre to grow to full size, lift off, and then beaming Manny onboard. "You tested that thing, right?" Maria asked Lisa nervously. "Yes..." Lisa said in the tone of voice while making the face that says she's lying, unfortunately, Maria saw right through it. "Oh dear, does anyone have a paper bag?" Maria asked. "Got one right here! Just need to take the sandwich out first!" Lana said as she pulled out from one of her pockets a paper bag, which she pulled out a grilled cheese sandwich from it before handing the bag over to Maria. Maria then started breathing in and out of the bag.

Up In The Skyring...

Aquarion TMNT, LuchaPrime, the Auxiliary Alebrije Mechs, Daileon, Sun Vulcan Robo, DynaRobo, Zenryoku ZenkaiOh, TwokaiOh, Giant Robot Sanchez, and Panopticon and Alraunellie's personal War Diablos were having a lot of trouble against Dark Aquarion Mortem, it's four summoned Parka Ghosts, Hogarito, the Kaijufied Skeleton, Raven, Vulture, and Turkey Dopants, Cherubim Iskuron, Cherubim Sur le Kubera, Futaba's six-armed machete-bladed Cherubim Soldier, and the giant-sized Sartana of the Dead. "Man, these guys are annoyingly strong!" Desco complained. "You said it, my love!" Alraunellie said in equal complaint. "If think I'm annoying, then let's see how you handle this!" Moroha said as Cherubim Iskuron suddenly split it's body in two halves, in a similar reverse manner to Kamen Rider Build's Halfbodies (one half having the face, right horn, left arm, and right leg while the other half had the back of the head, left horn, right arm, and left leg), before the two halves acted independently from another and attacked the two War Diablos in a double team attack with their claws."Oh, yeah, did I forget to mention he could do that with Iskuron?" Mikage asked. "Anything else we need to know about Otoha and Moroha's personal Cherubims, Mikage-san?" Sakura asked.

"Well, for Iskuron, aside from the Separation Attack, it can also fire out Pulsar Beams from its face! As for Sur le Kubera, it can detach the side skirt-like armor from its hips to use as double-ended swords while it can also fire out Spears of Light from its fingertips!" Mikage answered. "Great!" Aurachnid said sarcastically before laser fire opened up on the enemies. "What now?!" Futaba asked in annoyance. "Yeah! Who shot at us?!" Hogarito complained. "Up here!" Manny called as Vector Tigre kept firing lasers. "MANNY?! What is that thing and how are you flying it?!" Frida asked in shock. "Lisa called it Vector Tigre." Manny said, continuing to open fire on Sartana, the Cherubims, Dopants, and Hogarito. "When did she have the time to make that, and how did she do it to begin with?" Frida asked in confusion. "In addition to being a kawaii winged robot dog that can transform into an awesome laser cannon, Mecha Pollon-chan also has some built in software and construction nanobots that allows Lisa-chan to make new Vectors that we and our allies can use in our fight against the forces of evil." Sakura said.

*Groan* "That Pollon!" Otoha grumbled. "He's just as much of a traitor as Apollonius!" She added. Everyone who didn't know about the Shadow Angels looked in confusion. "It's a very long story!" Lincoln said. "One involving war and a forbidden romance that took 24,000 years and two lifetimes to come to fruition!" Sakura said. "Okay?" Manny said in confusion. "Anyway, let's see what this new Vector can do!" Lincoln said as Vector TMNT detached from Aquarion LL. "Just so you know, Brother Unit, Vector Tigre is compatible with the Anansi Formation, so you guys must switch to Aquarion Anansi before you can combine with Vector Tigre!" Lisa informed through the comm link. "Thanks for the heads up, Lisa! You're up, Clyde!" Lincoln said as the Vectors split up before quickly combining back into Aquarion Anansi. That made Manny and Frida look a bit confused.

'

"Yeah, we forgot to mention that Aquarion usually has three different formations, depending on which Vector becomes the head unit!" Clyde explained. "Mine resembles a fairy with twin laser cannons in the chest called the 'Big Bang Smasher'." Sakura explained. "Big Bang Smasher? What kind of a weapon name is that?" Frida asked in confusion. "One of the guys from Neo-DEAVA, the organization that gave us the Vectors and Mecha Pollon-chan, is a bit of a pervert who calls girls' chests 'Big Bangs'." Sakura explained. "In fact, he was the one who had convinced the scientists that made our Vectors to incorporate the twin laser cannons into the chest instead of the palm of the hands like they were originally meant for!" She added. "Ew, that guy better consider himself lucky he hasn't met my dad, I seriously doubt he'd take that kind of talk lightly, especially if me or my sisters were involved!" Frida said.

"Well, lucky for you, Andy, that's the guy's name, by the way, actually has a girlfriend named MIX, who is, so far, able to keep most of Andy's perverted tendencies in check, if you know what I mean!" Clyde said. "She even has this power that enables her to fill in holes, which counters his power to create them!" He added. "Oh, you mean like a cement mixer, as her name would imply?" Frida asked. "Exactly, and it's apparently a pain for Andy when she uses her powers to fill the holes he's using to try and dig into the girl's locker room, which he successfully managed to do once, only for MIX to punish him by using her power to temporarily seal him within his own hole!" Clyde said. "Sounds like MIX and my sisters would get along great, they would definitely not take something like that lying down!" Frida said. "Yeah, they'd probably tase him so hard, he'd be walking funny for a week!" Manny joked. "*Chuckle!* True!" Frida noted with a chuckle.

Meanwhile, in Neo-Kowloon...

Andy and MIX were walking together on a date when the former a random chill up his spine. "You okay?" MIX asked. "Yeah, I just suddenly felt a chill of up my spine, as if someone is talking about me and thinking about doing some serious harm to me!" Andy answered. "And for some strange reason a brief vision of a pair of brunette girls shooting me with tasers." He noted. "Seriously?!" MIX asked in shock at that last part. "Yeah, and they did not look happy!" Andy said. "And for what reason?" MIX asked. "It was brief, but I think I saw the familiar surroundings of a locker room." Andy said. "Yeah, that explains it." MIX said.

Back With The Others...

"Alright, let's see what this baby can do! Tora (Tiger) Gattai, Go Aquarion!" Manny called, slamming the button next to him. That caused Vector Tigre to fly into the air while Aquarion Anansi followed behind it.

(Cue "El Tigre: The Adventures of Manny Rivera" Theme song, YouTube extended version)

As that happened, Vector Tigre started to separate into pieces, starting with the four big tiger-printed wings, then the twin hanger bays containing the clawed tiger paws, then the mechanical tiger tail and the back part that was it's attached to, then the rear hull containing the twin main thruster engines (which then split itself vertically into two halves), and then the side parts containing the circular shields, all while the front hull and mechanical Tiger head remained intact. Then, after the pieces of Vector Tigre surrounded Aquarion Anansi and projected a ring of energy around the mecha, everyone, Manny especially, felt energy flowing through them. "WHOOOOA! HOLY CHALUPA! IS THIS WHAT DAVI FELT WHEN HE WAS IN AQUARION GEPARD'S MERGE SEQUENCE?!" Manny asked as he was feeling the energy. "IT DEFINITELY IS! THIS IS WHAT HAPPENS WHEN WE COMBINE INTO AQUARION!" Lincoln explained. "YEAH! THIS IS THE WAY OUR MINDS, BODIES, AND SOULS MERGE WHILE OUR VECTORS MERGE!" Clyde explained. "NOT ONLY THAT, BUT OUR OWN POWERS ARE BEING AMPLIFIED AND OUR EMOTIONS ARE BEING SHARED WITH EACH OTHER! IT JUST FEELS THAT GOOD!" Sakura replied while feeling the energy in bliss. "IT HAPPENS ALL THE TIME, SO IT'S BEST TO GO WITH THE FLOW!" Aurachnid said. "WELL, WHEN YOU PUT IT THAT WAY, LET'S DO JUST THAT!" Manny declared as the pieces finally started coming together. First, Aquarion Anansi allowed the pieces of Vector Pharaoh that contained the round shields to slide into its shoulder blades, having those pieces become new shoulder armor with the round shields facing at the sides. Next, Aquarion Anansi's hands retracted back into its lower arms before the twin hangar bays of Vector Tigre slid themselves in and attach to the lower arms before the tiger paws at the front ends of said hangar bays twisted around halfway and flipped out clawed thumbs and have the rest of the claws extend themselves into sharper ines, making the paws become clawed hands similar to El Tigre's. Then, Aquarion Anansi's feet folded downwards, allowing the two halves of the rear hull of Vector Tigre to turn halfway, slide in, and attach themselves right into Aquarion Anansi's legs, right before the stabilizers folded outwards to form the feet as they slide themselves over the twin main thruster engines. After that, the back part of Vector Tigre containing the tiger tail cave over and attached itself to the lower back and rear of Aquarion Anansi, right before Aquarion Anansi's four spider legs stretched themselves outwards to allow Vector Tigre's four big wings to attach themselves underneath the tips, giving the Mecha four more jet wings in addition to the jet wings formed by Vector LL. Finally, Aquarion Anansi's entire head immediately retracted itself back into its body, all while the front hull of Vector Tigre, containing the tiger head, moved in front of the Mecha and then flipped out from its bottom a crotchplate with a replica of the El Tigre Belt set above it, right before the front hull of Vector Anansi's slid itself in front of Aquarion Anansi's chest! and attached itself to the Mecha while the front part the front hull split itself open vertically to reveal a large red metallic heart-shaped piece with small black wings at the sides, a green fire-like structure at the top, and a shining fiery reddish orange gemstone in the middle of its center, becoming the chestplate, while the crotchplate put itself in front of the Mecha's groin before the straps of the El Tigre Belt replica wrapped themselves around the Mecha's waist and the buckle spun around a little bit to secure the piece in place. Then, as the mechanical tiger head of Vector Tigre lit up its eyes, it opened up its mouth and roared before flipping out a humanoid Mecha face, which had El Tigre's mask marking and green eye color, from the roof of its mouth, kind of like GekiTohja. Afterwards, as the newly formed Mecha, which looked like a Mecha version of El Tigre with six jet wings on its back, did some slashing moves with its claws, Manny shouted "AQUARION! TIGRE!" as the Mecha, now named Aquarion Tigre, finished in the same dramatic pose as El Tigre.

Once that happened, the heroes were astonished by the new Mecha while the villains were obviously shocked by it, though King Draco was more annoyed than anything. "You've got to be kidding me!" King Draco said in annoyance. Manny then noticed a wheel with the El Tigre belt buckle, Manolo's guitar, and a bat on it. "This must be what Lisa meant!" Manny realized as more memories of his past lives flooded his brain. Among those memories were scenes of Zatz's fighting techniques and ability to turn into a swarm of bats or a giant bat as well as scenes of Manolo's fighting and musical techniques. There were also scenes of Zatz kissing Maya and another scene featuring Manolo Sanchez and Maria Posada getting married to each other. This and the fact that Maya and Maria were Frida's past lives made Manny blush at the implications.

Fortunately, Raul was able to snap Manny back to his senses by forming slapping him a bit on the cheeks. "Thanks, Raul, I needed that!" Manny said after he got back to his senses, to which Raul responded with a thumbs up. "Now let's see what this baby can do!" Manny said as the claws sprung to life.

(Cue "Eye of the Tiger" by Survivor)

"You don't scare me!" Hogarito declared as he then surrounded himself with globs of water and charged towards the Mecha in a manner similar to the Water Pokemon move Aqua Jet. However, Manny was able to tear right through the water, and hit Hogarito so hard, his soul core shattered! That caused Hogarito to shout "WIPEOUT!" before he exploded and reverted into a Soul Core. Lincoln quickly beamed the Soul Core aboard and sealed it. "Who's next?!" Manny asked. "I'll take you on, Manuel, as part of my Vendetta!" Zoe declared as the Raven Dopant flew towards Aquarion Tigre and attacked the Mecha with sharp claws from her three feet, knife-like feathers from her eight wings, and dark energy beams from her three heads. "Uh oh!" Manny said. However, the Callocelotarling mech jumped in and intercepted the attacks with her claws and star projectiles. "Give it up, Zoe! This love triangle thing didn't go over so well for you in your last two lives, I doubt it would go so well here!" She said.

That made Zoe angrier. "Look who's talking!" Zoe said. "What do you mean by that?" Frida asked in annoyance. "Zatz and Maya, Manolo and Maria, both your and his past lives, both of whom got together!" Zoe pointed out, causing both Manny and Frida to blush. "Yeah, well, one of your past lives is a man!" Frida pointed out, causing Zoe feel like her heart was pierced by an arrow, meaning that her feelings were hurt. "Yeah...well...at least I didn't get sent to Spain against my will after unleashing pigs on the city!" Zoe said. "Well at least I didn't inadvertently help cheat in a stupid wager!" Frida pointed out. "Uh oh! I sense a catfight!" Aurachnid said. "Uh, should we do something?" Davi asked. "THAT'S IT! YOU'RE DEAD MEAT, FRIDA SUAREZ!" Zoe angrily declared before attacking the Callocelotarling mech.

However, Aquarion Tigre used one of it's shields to protect her. "Hey, back off from her, Zoe!" Manny said. "You know what? Let's see what happens when I move this!" Manny said, moving the wheel to the icon showing Manolo's guitar. That caused Aquarion Tigre to retract its claws and flip its paws upwards to allow more humanlike hands to pop out of the arms while the Mecha's upper body armor and leg armor shifted around a little bit to more resemble Manolo Sanchez's outfit, which was a black Traje de luces, meaning 'suit of lights', which is traditional bullfighting clothing (in this case, it's decorated with hearts in various places, winged hearts, corazón del santos, and skulls with crossbones) with a gold jacket with curls protruding from the sleeves, a pink necktie, and black taleguilla (close-fitting tights which extend from the waist to underneath the knee, secured with tasseled cords or decorated gaiters) with black shoes). Plus, the form change allowed the Mecha to summon a large metallic replica of Manolo's guitar in its hands and a pair of pink/red swords on its back.

"Okay, this looks interesting." Manny said. "Ah, yes, that alternate form is based on your immediate previous incarnation Manolo Sanchez, who you should know from your past life's memories as being a bullfighter who really wanted to be a musician!" Lisa said through the comm link. "For that reason, you can use both his swords and guitar in battle." She added. "Sweet!" Manny said. "Let's give it a try!" He said. That's when Aquarion Tigre in its new mode started playing it's guitar, much to the Raven Dopant's confusion. "What are you up to now?" Zoe asked in confusion, right before Aquarion Tigre's guitar produced energy musical scores and notes that attacked the Raven Dopant. "Cool!" Manny said. Aquarion Tigre then put away the guitar before unsheathing the swords on its back and slashed at the Raven Dopant multiple times. "Try that with us!" Lady Gobbler said as she and the Vulture Dopant flew between them.

The Turkey Dopant then fired out lasers from her seven heads and produced gale force winds from her tail feathers while the Vulture Dopant did the same thing with her five heads and twelve wings. "Woah!" Manny said, dodging the attack. "Dang, those chicks are serious!" He noted. "Yeah, no kidding!" Lincoln said. "I'd better help!" Frida said as the Callocelotarling mech jumped up and converted into its Macuahuitl-like Star Wrecker form. Which was then caught by Aquarion Tigre. Manny then noticed the icon representing Zats glowing. "Hmm..." Manny said curiously, turning the dial to said icon. That caused Aquarion Tigre's upper body armor and leg armor to shift and rearrange again, only this time to resemble Zatz's battle armor. Not only that, but the Star Wrecker actually reconfigured into a dual ended weapon, one end resembling Maya's Eagle Claw weapon, the other Zats' Crimson Moon weapon! "What The Heck?!" Frida and Callocelotarling asked in shock after the reconfiguration of their weapon form.

Everyone on the ground looked at Lisa in confusion. "Hey, don't look at me, for once I'm just as confused as you." Lisa said. "I might have an idea on what just happened! Apparently, since Manny is Zatz's secondary reincarnation while Frida is Maya's secondary reincarnation, as well as the fact that the Celeste-colored Alebrije mech took on the form of a Macuahuitl of all things, that means Aquarion Tigre's form change had also caused the weapon to take on a dual ended weapon resembling the Macuahuitl swords used by Zatz and Maya!" The Candle Maker theorized. "Eh, works for me." Lisa shrugged. "Alright, let's see what this can do!" Manny said, seperating the weapon into it's two Macuahuitl halves. "Bring it on!" The Flock of Fury taunted. The three bird-themed Dopants then tried attacking Aquarion Tigre, only for it to easily block the attacks with its two Macuahuitl halves.

Remembering something from his life as Zats, Manny tossed the Crimson Moon half like a boomerang, allowing it to not only hit the Flock of Fury, but also the Skeleton Dopant, Sartana, and all four Cherubims! That made them all very angry. Sartana and Futaba even more when on the return trip, it cut off Sartana's wings and all six of the machete blades of Futaba's Cherubim! "How Dare You?!" Sartana yelled angrily before she managed to get her wings back onto her back. "I've been holding back long enough, so now is the time to unleash... My Full Power!" She declared before engulfing herself into flames as she then morphed into an immensely long skeletal Feathered Serpent with huge wings, razor-sharp teeth, flames across her spine and head, and feathers on her body and huge wings that are made of pure obsidian. "Oh, that's not good!" Manny said. Even, La Muerte, Xibalba, the Candle Maker, and the Book of Life were visibly frightened by the sight Sartana's Feathered Serpent form.

"Guys we need to end this quick before she ends us! We need to combine our full power!" Lincoln said. "Not if we can help it!" Django said as the four Dopants, Dark Aquarion Mortem and the four Damashiis, and the three Cherubims blocked the heroes' path, right before Django attacked with a fire breath at them, which hit Giant Robot Sanchez, causing the robot to get damaged. "Let's see how you handle this! Taiyo ken, Orora Purasma Kaeshi! (Solar Sword, Aurora Plasma Dual Slash!)" Takayuki called. "Orora Purasma Kaeshi!" Kinya repeated. "Orora Purasma Kaeshi!" Asao repeated. "Taiyo ken, Orora Purasma Kaeshi!" Sun Vulcan Robo called out summoning it's weapon. "Dynamic Jump!" Hokuto called as DynaRobo jumped in the air. "Kagaku ken, Inazuma Juryoku Otoshi! (Science Sword, Lightning Gravity Fall!)" The Dynaman called as the two mechas unleashed their signature finishers, Dynarobo destroying the Skeleton Dopant, Sun Vulcan Robo destroying the other Dopants as well as Futaba's Cherubim while heavily damaging Iskuron, Sur le Kubera, and Dark Aquarion.

After the Dopants were destroyed, their respective GaiaRisers and Gaia Memories shattered as the smoke cleared to reveal Django, Zoe, Carmelita, and Pachita all returned to normal and groaning in pain. At the same time, while Futaba himself managed to escape before his Cherubim was destroyed, Moroha, Otoha, Akuji, Shibogumon, and Stephano were very unhappy about their Mechas getting heavily damaged. "This isn't over!" They all called, disappearing through a portal. "That only leaves Sartana!" Frida said.

"I might be outnumbered here, that is true, but I'm definitely not outmatched in power, as I shall show you!" Sartana declared as she charged towards DynaRobo and Sun Vulcan Robo and slashed at them with her sharp obsidian feathers on her body and wings, causing both Showa Era Sentai Mechas to instantly disassemble back into their individual components. "Senpai-tachi!" Kaito said in horror. "Oi! You're going to pay for that, Cutanner Tou: Raging Fire Big Slash!" Zocks announced as TwokaiOh Cuttaner charges up the Cutanner Tou sword with fire, forming an energy manifestation of the Rekka Daizantou, right before it dealt several flaming slashes at Sartana that formed the Shiba Clan emblem followed by a larger flame slash on Sartana's body. Unfortunately, instead of exploding, Sartana actually absorbed the flames into her body. "Okay, that wasn't supposed to happen!" Zocks noted in shock while Sartana chuckled. "*Chuckle!* My Turn!" Sartana declared before spewing bright golden flames at TwokaiOh Cuttaner, causing the Mecha to instantly get damaged to the point of disassembling back into CrocoDaioh, TwokaiCuttaner and TwokaiRicky.

"Oh that's so not good!" Lincoln said. "Dang It! She's far more powerful than we had thought!" Ronnie Anne complained. "What are we going to do?" Sid asked. "Hey, Crazy Puma!" A voice called out in a Russian accent. That's when everyone looked around to see none other than Jorge's old retired supervillain friends Comrade Chaos, El Tarantula, and Mano Negra, who were all carrying four huge burlap sacks that are full of treasure with them, much to the surprise of Jorge himself. "Comrade Chaos, El Tarantula, Mano Negra! What a surprise! But what's with the bags?" Jorge said. "We just pulled off the biggest heist ever!" Comrade Chaos said. "Sartana's lair was unguarded, so we broke in and stole literally everything that wasn't nailed down!" El Tarantula said. "Plus a few things that were!" Mano Negra said. That made Jorge laugh hysterically while those that don't know about the three retired supervillains were a little confused. "You geniuses! Why didn't I think about trying that the first chance I got?!" Jorge asked. "Well, it's a good thing that we saved a bag of treasure for you, Crazy Puma!" Comrade Chaos said before El Tarantula tossed one of the treasure-filled huge burlap sacks over to Jorge, who easily caught it with his Mech suits claws.

"Now if you'll excuse us." El Tarantula said as everyone put on straw hats and sunglasses. "We're off to Fiji!" Mano Negro said before they ran off. "Who were those guys, Puma Loco?" Stella asked in confusion. "Let's just say they're old colleagues and leave it at that." Jorge said, digging in. "Let's see, jewels, gold coins, wait, I think I just found something that can be of use in this situation!" He said. He then pulled out a sword with a black handle that had a skull marking on the bottom, a spikey bladed hilt that somewhat resembled a stylized bat's head, and a spiked silvery blade that's covered in light bluish ethereal flames and actually has the words 'Sartana Slayer' written on the upper part of said blade. "A sword?" Stella asked in confusion. "The Sartana Slayer Sword!" Jorge explained.

"Sartana Slayer Sword? *Groan!* How could have forgotten about that thing?!" Xibalba complained with a facepalm. "You recognize that sword, Xibalba?" Rodolfo asked in confusion. "Si! La Muerte and I, with some help from the Candle Maker's brother, the Creator, had made that sword, in case Sartana should somehow become too powerful and unruly during her banishment in the Land of the Living, and it was supposed to be wielded by a chosen random hero for that time of crisis, but for some odd reason, it never got found by one single hero and was thought to be lost!" Xibalba explained. "Then how did it literally end up in Sartana's treasure pile?" Lori asked in confusion. That's when the Book of Life got everyone's attention and opened up its pages. "Oh! Well, that explains everything! Apparently, from what the book is telling us, Sartana managed to find the sword first and had it hidden in her lair to prevent anyone from using it against her! It also said the sword did once manage to escape from her lair once, since it actually has a mind of it's own, and wanted Frida Suarez to use it against Sartana, though, unfortunately, the girl ended up picking up a potato instead and threw it at Sartana, which had no effect, obviously! The sword then tried again after it got back to Sartana's lair, when Frida got captured by Sartana, after she tried to take her on by herself while wearing the El Tigre Belt only to easily lose it to Sartana, and Manny tried to defeat the villain himself, only for the latter to easily overpower him even when he got the belt back, but, once again, Frida chose the potato again, which she used to literally plug the hole in Sartana's mystic guitar, which caused the instrument to overload and explode, which obviously caused Sartana to disintegrate and get temporarily sent to the Land of the Cursed to regenerate herself! But, anyways, since then, the Sartana Slayer Sword ended up deciding to stay in the lair in order to wait for the day when it can finally be used and fulfill its purpose to put an end to Sartana, once and for all!" The Candle Maker said upon reading the Book of Life's pages.

"There's one not so small problem, though!" Lori reminded everyone. "Nothing my powers can't fix!" Paralanusium said, using her powers on the sword to make it as big as the Star Wrecker. Once that happened, the Sartana Slayer Sword came alive and flew towards the Sky Ring. "Yes! Min'na, we're sending something that will be perfect for ending this fight once and for all!" Shintomaru said as the Sword entered the Skyring. "Of course! A giant potato! Why didn't I think of that?" Frida asked, ignoring the sword and instead seeing a giant potato that was somehow in the ring. "No, you blue-haired Baka! I'm talking about the Sartana Slayer Sword!" Shintomaru clarified. "The what, now?" Frida asked in confusion. "I think he's talking about the big sword with the words 'Sartana Slayer' carved into the blade right there, Frida-chan." Sakura said, noticing said sword.

"Oooooh! That sword! Now that I remember, I saw that thing twice, along with a chainsaw and a mace, and I ended up using the potato against Sartana, the first time around didn't do anything, while my second attempt managed to literally plug the hole her mystic guitar, which caused it to explode!" Frida explained. "Wasn't that time when you 'borrowed' my El Tigre Belt and became La Tigressa?" Manny reminded, making Frida flinch a bit. "Yep! That would be it!" Frida said sheepishly. "Wait, what?" Aurachnid asked in confusion. "Okay, so I was feeling very ashamed of being a powerless little girl that gets into trouble, especially during Miracle City Crime Night, so I ended up taking Manny's belt while he was sleeping and used it to become La Tigressa while fighting against three giant monsters, which included Giant Robot Sanchez, no offense by the way!" Frida said, making a slight apology to Giant Robot Sanchez, who simply made a 'None Taken' motion with his arms.

"Then, I took the belt from Manny again, after making him fall asleep from watching a boring documentary about earthworms, so that I would take on Sartana herself, and I did manage to get past her minions first, but then I've accidentally pulled the belt off of me with one of my claws, causing me to revert to my normal self and Sartana to use the belt as a guitar, which prompted me to go back to my usual cell, yeah, that's right, I've actually been in Santana's more often than she does, okay? But, anyway, after Manny tried to rescue me, only for Sartana to catch him and try to kill him, I secretly unlocked the door with a pin and managed to briefly knock Santana's head off, allowing me to get the belt back and let Manny become El Tigre again, though Sartana ended up getting herself back together, so I plugged her Mystic Guitar with a potato and then we both escaped her lair before the thing exploded, though the explosion did launch into sky past an airplane, causing us to fall through a silo full of honey and land in the Bear exhibit at zoo, were I ended up swallowed whole by a bear and Manny had to heimlich me out of there!" Frida explained. "EWWWWWWW!" The heroes said in disgust. "Tell me about it." Frida said.

"So, at that time, you were feeling powerless?" Laird asked. "Exactly! Seriously, Manny, his father, and his grandfather all have powers and I didn't, and that made feel like a burden to them, if you know what I mean!" Frida answered. "Believe me, I know the feeling of being a burden!" Laird said. "You do?" Frida asked in confusion. "I'm the one who opened the Dark Box, I'm the reason the Pecadiablos were freed, on top of that, compared to the others' powers, mine are kind of weak." Laird said. "Seriously? How could your mind powers be considered weak?" Frida asked in confusion. "I have telepathy and telekinesis." Laird said. "What and what, now?" Manny asked in confusion. "The first one means the ability to communicate by read other people's minds while the other one means the ability to move objects and people with the mind!" Lisa explained through the comm link. "On top of that, I'm a bit of a coward." Laird admitted. "A bit?" Becky asked with a chuckle.

"Hey!" Laird complained. "Couldn't resist." Becky said. "But, anyway, I did learn from Phixia that my mind powers are stronger than I had thought, since she has telepathy and telekinesis as well, though for the latter she can use it to brutally injure enemies and crush objects with even touching them!" Laird said. That last part made Manny and Frida shudder in fright. "Yeah." Laird said. "Anyway, let's see what this thing can do!" Manny said. "But, first, we shall return to our original forms!" He added before turning the wheel to the El Tigre Belt symbol, causing Aquarion Tigre and the Star Wrecker to return to their normal forms. After that happened, Aquarion Tigre picked up the Sartana Slayer Sword and then combined it with the Star Wrecker by having the bladed end of the latter weapon, formed from Callocelotarling's Marine Betta tail, open up wide like the jaws of a Moray Eel, which is what the tail end of the Marine Betta is supposed to mimic, and then connect the former weapon into it via the handle, causing the ethereal flames of the Sartana Slayer Sword to engulf the Star Wrecker. "Aquarion Tigre, Star Wrecker: Sartana Slayer Mode!" Manny and Frida announced as Aquarion Tigre held the newly combined weapon in its clawed hands.

"Alright, everyone, together!" Lincoln called. "Right!" Sakura, Clyde, Aurachnid, Juspion, Cayenne, Kagura, Davi, Manny, Frida, the Lucharangers, and the main five Zenkaigers replied at once while Giant Robot Sanchez, who's still functional despite being damaged, made a thumbs up. "Prime Victory!" The Lucharangers called. "Zenkaiger: All Sentai Final Big Bang!" The first five Zenkaigers called. "Daileon Beam!" Juspion called. "Aquarion Pinata Missiles!" Davi called. "Tiger Star Slayer!" Manny called. Then, while LuchaPrime had energy gathered into the Prime Blaster before it fired an energy beam made of all 11 of their colors while being supplied by energy beams from the Auxiliary Alebrije Mecha and Vector TMNT, Zenryoku ZenkaiOh generated manifestations of the past Super Sentai teams' strongest mecha and machines before sending them hurtling towards Sartana with several slashes and kicks. At same time, Giant Robot Sanchez fired out missiles from his body and arms while Daileon fired various beams from the torso plate, eyes, and ears, and Aquarion Gepard fired out 26 missiles, which quickly changed into metallic rocket-powered replicas of Davi's Power Pinata of Punishment, from a pair of containers that materialized on the shoulders. Then, after Aquarion Tigre powered it's thrusters and charged towards Sartana with the Star Wrecker: Sartana Slayer Mode thrusted blade forward, Manny shouted "ANCIENT TIGER SPIRIT, I SUMMON YOU!", causing the entirety of Aquarion Tigre to be engulfed in green flames that quickly formed into a gigantic green tiger spirit that roared and charged towards Sartana. Finally, all of the attacks converged at once, with the tiger spirit managed to pass through Santana's Feather Serpent body while Aquarion Tigre cut through her with its powered up weapon, followed by Pinata missiles and Giant Robot Sanchez's missiles, LuchaPrime, Daileon, Vector TMNT, and the Auxiliary Alebrije Mech's energy beams, and Zenryoku ZenkaiOh's generated Super Sentai Mecha manifestations. Needless to say, once the attacks hit her all at once, Sartana shouted out "NOOOOOOOOOOOO!" as she finally exploded. "Yes!" Everyone shouted. King Draco was obviously very disappointed at Sartana's defeat. "You all may have won this battle, but the war is far from over!" King Draco warned direly before he, Cerberion , and Tytus left through the portal back to the Animarius Empire Castle.

Later...

"I really wish it didn't have to come to this, Sartana dear, but you've left us no choice." Xibalba said, handing Sartana's soul to Emizel. "This isn't fair! I'm supposed to be immortal! I'm not supposed to die, especially like this!" Sartana complained. "Tell it to the judge." Emizel said. "And...there!" AkaRed said finishing work on Frida's Lucha Changer. "With this, whenever we call you in, all you have to do is push this button and a portal taking you to where the action is will open up!" He instructed. "Cool! Does this mean I can bring Manny along too?!" Frida asked. "If you want!" Ronnie Anne said. "Nice!" Manny said as they high five. "NANI?! Taurus and Cancer have been revived?!" Kengo asked in shock as Gentarou and Ryusei were talking to him over video call. "Yeah, though the difference is that they were evolved from completely different Zodiarts, specifically based on the obsolete constellations Taurus Poniatovii and Cancer Minor, who both have their own unique human identities, and they are both primarily gold instead of their usual colors, along with both of them having a black 'X' on their chests with their respective constellations' Western Zodiac symbols in the middle!" Ryusei explained.

"Great, just great, if those two have been Revived then there's a very strong possibility the other 10 can be as well!" Kengo said. "That's not the only thing, we've encountered the head of Foundation X's Zodiarts Research Division himself, Director Chushin, who has a very ultra powerful Zodiarts form that looks like a humanoid golden yellow hornless Chinese Dragon mixed with a Chinese Emperor and the whole Solar System, and one of his four Generals, named General Baihu, who's based on the White Tiger of the West a.k.a Byakko!" Gentaro explained, much to Kengo's shock. "And according to Baihu, Saggitarius Nova is nothing compared to any of the Generals or Chushin himself!" Ryusei said.

That made Kengo gasp in shock and horror. "It gets worse, I'm afraid!" Lisa said as she went over to Gentaro and Ryusei's side. "Apparently, from I can indicate from Director Chushin's Zodiarts's overall appearance, he's based on Huanglong, the Yellow Dragon of the Center, which so happens to be considered the fifth leading member of the Sixiang, a.k.a. Four Symbols or Four Holy Beasts, as well representing the Element of Earth in the Wuxing, meaning Five Phases System, the Chinese quintessence, as well as the changing of the seasons, and the zoomorphic incarnation of the mythical Yellow Emperor of the center of the universe himself! Plus, unlike the Four Symbols, Huanglong isn't represented as a constellation in the sky, but rather represents the planet Earth itself, not to mention that it doesn't appear in Japanese mythology, since the fifth element in the Japanese elemental system is the Void, so there cannot be any animal representing it, though some consider the Kōryū or Ōryū as the Japanese counterpart of the Yellow Dragon since they share some similarities!" Lisa explained.

"But, in any case, Huanglong would be considered to be technically a god in Chinese myth, which basically means that it's very possible that Director Chushin's Zodiarts form is practically godlike in power!" She added, making Kengo, Gentaro, and Ryusei gasp in shock. "This could prove problematic." Kengo said. "Yeah, no kidding!" Gentaro said. "We'll keep an eye out for anymore Horoscopes and Generals, and let you know if anything comes up." Lisa promised. "Arigato, Lisa-chan!" Kengo replied. Suddenly, Anita and Nikkita rushed in. "Oh, hey, Anita and Nikkita, right? Just in time, I just finished making these!" Aya said, giving the Suarez twins potion filled calabashes. "Ooh!" Anita and Nikkita said with interest, right before they uncorked the Calabashes and chugged the potions, causing both of them to glow in a bright light, allowing them to blossom into H-Cups, which caused their vests to pop open and lose a few buttons, though thankfully their breasts are still held within their white shirts with only their cleavages exposed. Once the light died out, Anita and Nikkita looked at their newly grown breasts in awe and amazement. "Whoa!" Anita said. "H-Cups?!" Nikkita asked. "Sweet!" They both said at once. "Glad you two both enjoyed it! Heck, it would make easier for you two to get yourselves boyfriends, if haven't already got boyfriends already!" Aya said, to which the Suarez Twins giggled at that. "But, anyway, you two should be thanking your little sister Frida, since it was her idea for me to give you those potions in the first place!" Aya said, making the twins look at Frida in shock and confusion. "You did that for us?!" Anita asked. "But, Why?!" Nikkita asked. "Well, I know for the fact that you two have been bullying me a lot, especially at the Junior Police Academy, but you two are still family, and it wouldn't exactly feel right to have you both be left out of the potion, so I let you two have the beauty enhancement potion, so that you would be able to enjoy the same benefits I have with it!" Frida said, causing Anita and Nikkita to surprisingly hug her and say "Thank You!" with tears of joy, just as a portal opened up that allowed Nyansipo, his new golden cobra familiar Heka, Aika with Yasuke, Charley, Area with Panyin and Kakra, Aoife with Brion, Yaa, Tomoki, the Mlularuka brothers Fluffy, Puffy, and Tuffy, Mpatapo, and Duafe to enter the scene. "Hey guys!" Lincoln said.

"Hey, Lincoln!" Nyansipo said. "What brings you guys here?" Sakura asked. "Well, after the successful test of my new and improved version of my potion, courtesy of Andros volunteering for it, I've decided to make a few more of Calabashes full of that potion, though I created it in three different variants, the first type for just the muscles and abs, the second type for just the 'franks and beans', if you know what I mean, and the third type that combines the affects of the first two types, which is the type that Andros, as you can already tell! But, anyways, I decided to come here to demonstrate my new potion, and I wanted to ask if you, Clyde, Shintomaru, Edge, Casey, Sameer, Laird, Ricky, CJ, Bobby, Par, Kairos, and Manny would like to try it?" Nyansipo asked. "I could definitely use the muscles one, to go with my strength powers!" Bobby said, trying to flex.

"Question, does any of your new potions include making boys taller?" Kairos asked. "Technically, no! They won't make you grow tall instantly, but they don't necessarily prevent you from getting tall at all!" Nyansipo said. "Dang it." Kairos said. "It's alright, sweetie, I like you just the way you are, even in spite of your anger issues." Fuka assured. "What about me?" Cianán asked. "Since you have already gotten your 'frank and beans' enlarged because of my sabotaged potion mixing in with your Leprechaun DNA, I'll just give you the muscles and abs potion, okay?" Nyansipo suggested. "Yeah, that makes sense." Ciannan said. "Uh, how would any of those potions affect a male Gurrugan like me?" Makros asked in confusion. "Well, you should get bigger muscles and six-pack abs through the muscles and abs potion and the combo potion like with male humans and Animarius! As for the 'franks and beans' potion, well, hey, come to think of it, are the reproductive methods of Gurrugans the same those seen on Earth's Kangaroos?" Nyansipo asked. "Well, from what Sid and her family showed me on the videos of the kangaroos they have at the zoo, they're reproductive biology are strikingly similar to those of us Gurrugans, especially since the females of my people do have pouches on their bellies that hold our growing infants until they get big enough to move around on their own two feet while the males have their reproductive organs in the reverse order than what you human males have!" Makros explained, making everyone cringe a little bit after figuring it out, except for Leni, due to her cluelessness. "I don't get it!" Leni said in confusion, prompting Lisa whisper something into the second oldest Loud Sister's ear. "EWWWWWWW! EWWWWWWW! EWWWWWWW! HOW GROSS!" Leni shouted in disgust. "Hey! I take offense to that remark! Seriously, it's completely normal for us male Gurrugans!" Makros said in offense to that. "Sorry!" Leni apologized. "Well, in that case, I think it's best that I'd just give you the muscles and abs potion, and not the other two potions!" Nyansipo said. "Good point!" Makros noted.

"Well, as for me, I'll be taking just the 'frank and beans' potion, if you don't mind!" Tomoki said, much to everyone's surprise. "Really? Why, Tomoki-kun?" Sakura asked her half-German/half-Japanese male cousin in confusion. "Well, truth be told, I'm not really keen on the idea of having a muscular body, since I like my thin and nearly feminine body frame the way it is! Plus, well, with my own extremely late puberty and all, I'm admittedly worried about not being able to have kids with Yaa-chan one day, even after marriage!" Tomoki admitted, making Yaa smile and blush at that last part. "Wait a second, extremely late puberty? How old are you?" Manny asked in confusion. "While I do look and sound like a twelve-year-old boy who hasn't even started puberty yet, I'm actually fifteen years old!" Tomoki answered, much to the shock of Manny and Kairos. "You're actually one year older than me?!" Kairos asked in shock.

"As a young boy, specifically at three years old, Tomoki-kun was heavily traumatized by the death of his parents." Sakura explained. That made Manny, Kairos, and Makros gasp in shock. "Your parents died?! But how?!" Makros asked in shock. "They were killed in Africa by an eight-headed snake Animarius named Nyuvwrath, right after he crashed their private jet with his electrical powers." Sakura explained. "He was traumatized so much he's basically locked into this body you see here." Sakura explained as Tomoki started sobbing at the memory, fortunately, Yaa, Fluffy, Puffy, and Tuffy were there to comfort him. "Fortunately, he was found and raised by a family of Mlularuka, of which these little guys are part of." Aya said.

"Then, two years later, he was found by my biological uncle's family got adopted by them along his three Mlularuka brothers, and lived with them for the next twelve years!" Clyde said. "Dang." Frida said. "Yeah. Anyway, I'll just go for the one with the muscles." Lincoln said. "Same." The other males Nyansipo mentioned said. "Really? Why not go for the combo potion?" Chloe, who, along with Denkyem, also came through the portal, asked in confusion. "Because, it'll be rather embarrassing if our private parts get bigger, especially in front of you girls" Clyde admitted. "Not to mention that some of us are already well-endowed down there to begin with!" Casey said, pointing at himself, Shintomaru, and Edge. "That's kind of too bad, because I wouldn't mind having that happen to you in addition to the muscles, Kairos!" Fuka said to Kairos with a smile and a wink, making the latter blush a little bit. "I guess when you put it that way, Fuka, I guess I'll take the combo potion instead, if it makes you happy! Plus, it'll be good way for me to get payback at some of the guys in gym class for making fun of my lack of growth down there whenever we get into the boys' changing room!" Kairos said, making Fuka squeal a little in delight before hugging him. "I'll take that combo potion too, if you don't mind! Seriously, I have a few body-related insecurities myself, and I'd rather use that specific potion to relieve some of those issues myself!" Aden said. "No need to tell us about them, since I can clearly see that in your aura!" Nyansipo said upon reading Aden's aura, making Aden blush a little bit. "Well, as for me and Nyansipo, we both decided to take the combo potion as well, simply because our girlfriends wanted us to!" Charley said as Atea and Aika giggled at that. "Uh, Sakura?" Lincoln asked his girlfriend. "Truth be told, I'm fine with either way!" Sakura said. "Same goes for me, Clyde!" Chloe said to her boyfriend. "Well, we still standby our decision for just the muscle potion, since it wouldn't feel appropriate to use in battle anyways!" Lincoln said. "Besides, we'll probably just wait until our next birthdays to take that other potion, as soon as our war against the Animarius Empire and our other enemies is over, that is!" Clyde said. "Our thoughts exactly!" Sameer, Laird, Ricky, and CJ said in agreement. "And like I said before, Shintomaru, Edge, and I are already well-endowed down there ourselves, so we don't feel like we need to use that combo potion anyways!" Casey said. "As for me and Bobby, we're fine with just the muscles, since that's considered plenty enough for us legal adults!" Par said. "As for me and Mpatapo, as tempting as it is for us to take the combo potion like what Andros had done, we'll just take the muscle potion and, like with the other boys, wait until our next birthday before we can take that other potion!" Denkyem said. "As for me, well, while I like having muscles, I'm definitely not ready for having my privates becoming big, especially since after I heard about that incident where Nyansipo's potion went horribly wrong the first time around!" Manny said, gaining his father's attention. "Incident? What incident?" Rodolfo asked in confusion. "The incident where that potion went wrong and caused Nyansipo, Charley, and Cianán to unintentionally get their respective girlfriends pregnant with their babies! *Shudder!* Seriously, it's so gross that it made both me and Frida throw up in fright, Dad!" Manny said, pointing at Atea, Aika, Aoife, and their respective babies. "Santa Gordita! *Hiccup!*" Rodolfo said in shock and disgust before he and Emiliano turned around and threw up in a nearby trashcan "BLEEEEEEEGH!" while Maria and Carmela (Emiliano's wife and Anita, Nikkita, and Frida's mother, who has already arrived after the battle was over) blushed at the implications of that incident. "Ai yi yi yi, Kids these days! Even I feel disgusted by that! *Shudder!*" Jorge said in disgust. After Emiliano and Rodolfo quickly recovered, the latter turned around and yelled "UNCLEAN! Children and Teenagers are not supposed to be having babies, since that's reserved for married adults only, not to mention that they're considered too immature and irresponsible for the task of parenthood!" in a scolding manner. "So, we'll be taking these babies to the nearest orphanage, where they'll be eventually adopted into proper married families!" Emiliano declared as he and Rodolfo approached the babies, along to be stopped by a very angry Aoife, who immediately kicked them both in the crotch before they could get close enough. "AIEEEE!" Rodolfo and Emiliano yelled in agony while kneeling down and covering their crotches. "DO NOT TAKE AWAY MY BABY! HE'S MINE AND CIANÁN'S, AS WELL AS MY ONLY BUNDLE OF JOY!" Aoife yelled angrily. "And don't you dare take away my only son!" Aika warned. "Or my twin son and daughter, cause if you do..." Atea said before turning into her Werehyena form. "Y'ALL WILL BE FACING THE WRATH OF A VERY ANGRY MAMA HYENA!" She finished before growling, much to the fright of Rodolfo and Emiliano. "Si, Senorita! We Apologize!" Rodolfo and Emiliano said in frightened high voices. "Now, to clarify things, that whole potion incident wasn't our fault!" Nyansipo said. "What do you mean it's not your fault?!" Rodolfo, Emiliano, Maria, Carmela, and Jorge asked in confusion.

Enough Time To Explain The Potion Incident And What They Know About Gremlock Later...

Everyone who didn't know about Gremlock was incredibly shocked, repulsed, and disturbed by his actions. "You mean that little Diablo is actually what caused that whole potion incident in the first place?!" Rodolfo asked in shock. "And it's not just them, that punk apparently hypnotized my sister and now brother-in-law resulting in them conceiving children accidentally." Cayenne explained. "As well as both my and Subaru-kun's Oniichans and their girlfriends!" Yui said. "And my and Aden's cousin, his girlfriend, and several of their classmates!" Azalee said. "One of which, as I've recently found out, just so happening to be my younger paternal cousin!" Kairos said. "Why would he do any of that?" Maria asked. "Gremlock is part of a race of demons called 'Pecadiablos'." Jaxondor said. "Sin Devils?" Rodolfo asked. "Exactly. Their leaders embody the seven deadly sins, Gremlock is a soldier of the leader who embodies lust." Ronnie Anne explained.

"That would certainly explain it!" Jorge noted. "Fortunately for everyone involved, our parents, at least those of them who are alive, are fully supportive and more than willing to help us raise these beautiful little angels!" Aoife said. "Those of them who are alive? What do you mean by that?" Carmela asked in confusion, causing Aoife to tear up. "Mine died in an office fire, Aika's died in a plane crash caused by a lightning manipulating half-goat/half crocodile Animarius, and Hozumi and Niyuki's were burnt alive by a pair of fire manipulating Animarius, which now that I think about it is actually kind of ironic given the fact that one of them was a Nine tailed fox Animarius, and Yui's family is part Nine tailed fox." Aoife explained. That made everyone gasp in shock. "Wait, part-Nine-Tailed Fox?" Davi asked in confusion at the last part. "Kitsune, a creature of Japanese folklore described as a fox with nine tails, while Subaru-kun here is part Bake Danuki, a creature of Japanese folklore described as a magic Tanuki, or Japanese Raccoon Dog as it's known in English." Yui explained, allowing her fox ears and tail to pop out.

"But, you only have one tail, right now!" Maria pointed out. "Kitsune live to be 1,000 years old, with one tail growing once every 100 years." Seventh Samurai explained. "Hai, of course, with my family, since we're part human, we get them once every 10, except for me, since I drank the beauty enhancement potion, which worked despite me not being 10 years old, since the girls of my family tend to be early bloomers, just look at my cousin Himawari, who has F-cups despite only being 13 years old, according to Aya-neechan, the potion reacts to my Kitsune DNA and as a result, I will have all nine by the end of the year." Yui said. "Seriously?" Mikey asked in shock. "Yep, it was a surprise for me too!" Yui said. Of course, Aoife was still crying over the deaths of her parents. "Tá sé ceart go leor, a ghrá. (It's alright, my love)" Ciannan said soothingly, hugging her and rubbing her hair.

"Yeah, as you can see, even though her parents lived long enough to see Brion-kun being born and gave Cianán's parents the right to be her legal guardians, Aoife is still very upset about their deaths, especially since there might be a chance that the office fire was actually caused by an Animarius called Muscalignite, who has the ability to burn things with his incredibly strong body heat!" Aika explained. "Well, at least you boys appear to be far from the irresponsible fools that run away the moment you find out you got your girlfriend pregnant." Maria noted. "Or in Papi's case, run away BEFORE he even realizes that he got his ex-lover pregnant!" Rodolfo said before angrily glaring at Jorge. Jorge cringed. "Thanks!" Nyansipo, Charley, and Cianán said. "That reminds me! Jorge Rivera, since it was you who had left my eldest child at the altar, twice, and broke her heart, which caused her to turn completely evil and kill one of her sisters in a fit of rage, it's quite obvious that I'm going hold you accountable for such unforgivable behavior!" Xibalba said angrily, making Jorge gulp in fright. "What are you going to do? You're not going to kill me, are you?" Jorge asked nervously. "No, that would be going against the Ancient Rules! Instead, I'll just wait for you to die on your own, so that when you do, I'll personally give you the worst punishment ever imaginably possible!" Xibalba direly warned, making Jorge shiver in fright. "And what would that punishment be?!" Jorge asked in fright. "Well, I'd rather keep that surprise, but, believe me, it would not be pleasant! That, I can assure you!" Xibalba said with a smug grin, causing Jorge to turn completely pale out of fright. "Looks like somebody is in big trouble with the gods!" Aya noted with a smirk. Heka then slithered up to Emizel. "Hey, Sartana, if you meet a son of a beetle named Scarab while you're down in Hades, tell him Heka said..." Heka said before whispering something unintelligible to Sartana making her gasp before the cobra slithered back to Nyansipo. "Do I even want to know what you just asked Sartana to tell Scarab?" Nyansipo asked. "Probably not." Heka said. "So, Emizel, do you want to partake in one of my new potions, since you're here?" Nyansipo asked, making Emizel rather nervous. "Uh... Nagi, what do you think?" Emizel asked while looking at Nagi. "Honestly, I wouldn't mind if you took that combo potion, since it'll give you muscles and make more endowed than usual!" Nagi answered with a smile, making Emizel blush brightly. "Okay, fine, if you say so!" Emizel said in slight embarrassment. "Can I have one of those combo potions too?" Hideki asked as he was holding the four white kittens in his hands. "Uh, sure, Hideki, but what are you going to do now, since you're obviously not going back your father?" Nyansipo asked. "Well, would it be okay to stay with the Lucharangers, since I've got nowhere else to go?" Hideki asked.

"Makes sense, I guess." Ronnie Anne said. "But, which one of us are you going to stay with?" CJ asked. "All the rooms in my apartment are taken, so that's a no, unfortunately." Ronnie Anne said. "I could ask my parents if you can stay in my apartment!" Sid offered. "Although we do often have animals from the local zoo hanging out at our home when their exhibits are under maintenance, and we do have a giant Japanese Macaque living with us, long story, so if they agree I hope that's not a problem." She said. "If not, you can stay with me and my family in our apartment, since I believe there's a spare room in there!" Subaru offered. "Thanks." Hideki said. "Giant Japanese Macaque?" Rei asked in confusion. "Yeah, check it out." Adelaide said, pulling out her phone and showing a picture of the Chang family, Sally included, on the couch in their apartment.

"Ehhhh?! Is That Sally-tune?!" Secchan asked in shock and confusion. "Oh, did we not tell you guys about that?" Flint asked. "No, you did not!" The rest of the Zenkaigers said. "Well you see, while we were helping them and the Gokaigers against a revived Basco, Emizel over there brought over Sally's soul, a little magic from Eury and Electra, and she's brought back to life!" Flint explained. "And, now, she's living me, my sister, and our parents in our apartment!" Adelaide said. "Well anyway, there's..." "An emergency going on in town!" Anita and Nikkita said. "What sort of emergency?" Ronnie Anne asked. "Those lying jerks..." "...the Golden Eagle Twins are going around town saying they're the ones who defeated Sartana once and for all!" Anita and Nikkita explained angrily. That made everyone groan in exasperation. "Yeah, they're saying those robots you guys used..." "...were all remote controlled by them! And that you guys..." "...all died when the volcano exploded! Which they're saying..." "...was caused by Manny and Frida!" They said. That made Manny and Frida growl angrily.

Later...

Everyone in Miracle City was praising the Golden Eagle Twins. "YOU HAVE GOT TO BE KIDDING ME!" Frida said angrily. "We're definitely going to need a plan for exposing those phonies!" Manny said. "I've got just the thing!" Frida said, grabbing Rodolfo's leg and trying to remove one of his boots. "Wait, I've got something else." Aya said. "Fine, but if that fails, the boots come off!" Frida said. "What do you have in mind, Aya?" Manny asked. "Spirit calling!" Aya called. "Well, well, well, what have we here?" A voice called out that the Golden Eagle Twins recognized and paled in fright. "That voice!" Carla said. "It can't be!" Carlito said. They then turned around to see the ghost a muscular Latino man in his 30's with short black hair and grey stubble, who wearing a back bodysuit with a golden five-pointed stars on his shoulders, a belt around his waist with a golden buckle, a pair of larger brown belts crossed over his chest decorated with golden dots, a pair of brown gloves, a pair of golden eagle-themed boots, and a bronze-colored eagle-themed helmet while carrying a large brown, black, and golden round shield on his left arm that's emblazoned with a golden 'S'-shaped symbol that resembled a pair of eagle heads (Capitan Águila). "Father?!" Carla said. "But how?!" Carlito asked. "I have various spirit related powers thanks to my bond with Rena." Aya explained.

"And that includes summoning spirits of the deceased!" She added. "I must say, I am extremely disappointed in the two of you! They have told me everything!" General Aguila said as everyone walked up with their arms folded. "Not only did you two take credit for heroic acts that were actually committed by actual heroes, but you both also made everyone think those heroes died in the volcanic eruption that your zeppelin actually caused and also blamed El Tigre and his friend Frida Suarez for it, just like when you two framed them after they stopped you both from trying to destroy the community park with your zeppelin's lasers for a stupid motocross track, not to mention the fact that you two lied and manipulated everyone in this city while using your superhero status for getting away with despicable deeds, like cutting in line in the arcade and taking valuables and property of other people, orphans included, as your so-called rewards, which is not what true heroes are supposed to do!" He added.

This got the townsfolk murmuring. "Oh dear." Carlito said. "Don't worry, I have a plan, follow my lead!" Carla whispered. "Oh man, can you believe these people?! Trying to defame us?! That's not even a good replica of our father! Just some lame trick using smoke and mirrors! Right, bro?" Carla asked, jabbing Carlito with her elbow. That caused them to shake their heads in confusion upon snapping out of their trance. "Why did you say that?!" They screamed at each other. "Ahem!" Frida said, making them turn around to see Frida holding Rodolfo's legs up. "The Bronze Boots of Truth, whoever their soles touch has to tell the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth! Now, could you please elaborate by your statement?" Frida asked, making the Boots touch the Golden Eagle Twins again as they were in too much shock to react and try to escape. "We made the laser, not El Tigre. We had nothing to do with Sartana's defeat, we just ran away, we caused the Volcano to explode because our Zeppelin, which was filled with hydrogen, fell into the lava after that humanoid Barn Owl with the metal wings popped it with one of her feathers." They admitted.

They clapped their hands over their mouths as Frida pulled the boots off, but it was too late. Everyone that heard their confession angrily glared at the Golden Eagle Twins. "You thinking what I'm thinking?" Carla asked. "That we fly away as fast as humanly possible?" Carlito asked. "Exactly." Carla said before they both took off flying. "Oh, no, you don't!" Manny declared before shooting out his chain arms and grabbed the Golden Eagle Twins by their ankles before he pulled them back down, causing Carla and Carlito to crash onto the ground, where Emiliano approached them with two pairs of handcuffs. "Carla and Carlito a.k.a. the Golden Eagle Twins, you are both under arrest for the crimes of fraud, embezzlement, public endangerment, destruction of public property, attempted murder with a laser, and framing others for your crimes!" Emiliano said as he slapped the handcuffs onto the Golden Eagle Twins. "Dang It!" Carla complained. "We would have continued to get away with it, if it weren't for those meddling kids and grown-ups, especially El Tigre and Frida Suarez!" Carlito complained. "Ha! Take that, you li-" Frida started saying before accidentally touching the sole of one of the Boots of Truth and entering a trance. "I have a crush on Manny Rivera." She said in the trance. Frida then slapped her hands over her mouth as Manny realized what just happened. "Wait, what?" He asked. "Well, this is awkward, I'm going to go-" Rodolfo said backing up, only to accidentally step on Mambana's tail. "O-I have a crush on Toxobra." The Black Mamba Animarius admitted under a trance caused by the Boots.

That caused Mambana blush brightly while Toxobra was understandably shocked. "Mambana, is that true?!" Toxobra asked. "Yes." Mambana admitted sheepishly. "When did that happen, and why?" Toxobra asked. "Shortly after you joined our side." Mambana admitted sheepishly. "As for why, well, despite the fact that you're not being a Black Mamba, especially since I was originally a regular Black Mamba before I became an Animarius, you're pretty much the nicest snake I've ever met, though the reason why I kept my feelings hidden until now is because my species is known for eating other snake species when given the opportunity despite their primary prey being small mammals and birds!" She added. That took Toxobra by surprise. "Well, when you put it that way, I suppose I wouldn't mind giving a relationship with you a try." Toxobra said. "Really?" Mambana asked. "Really!" Toxobra said. "Aw." Frida went. "Frida?" Manny said, making Frida turn around. "Did I hear you correctly? You have a crush on me?" Manny asked.

That made Frida in blush embarrassment. But realizing there was no way out of it, Frida sighed. "Yes, it's true." She admitted. "Does that mean, that time when you kissed me once wasn't actually the heat of the moment?!" Manny asked in realization. "Well, yes, and no, it's complicated, you see-" Frida started saying, only to be cut off when Manny decided to kiss her. That made everyone in Miracle City drop their jaws in shock, especially Rodolfo, Maria, Emiliano, and Carmela. "So, does this mean, what happened with Maya and Zatz, and Maria and Manolo, will continue with us?" Frida asked, blushing heavily. "If you'd like." Manny said. "Yes, Yes, Yes! Best Day Ever!" Frida said before kissing Manny multiple times. "Now we celebrate! And I got just the thing! Shintomaru, go back to our world, grab Sam, Sully, and Mazzy, and bring them and their instruments back here!" Luna told Shintomaru.

"You got it!" Shintomaru said. "Hold it, everyone! I haven't given the boys their new potions yet!" Nyansipo said as he wheeled in a wagon full of corked Calabashes that are decorated with a blue-colored Mars symbol, with 16 of them having the words 'Type 1' on them, only one of them having the words 'Type 2' on it, and five of them having the word 'Type 3' on them. "Thanks Nyansipo!" Lincoln said as they all grabbed the potion they requested. "And while you guys are handling that..." Frida said, pulling out her phone and dialing a number. "Rosa! No time to explain, grab your guitar, fetch Teeny, grab her drums, and meet me in town!" She said before getting an idea. "You're both 13, right?" She asked. "Yep! Why do you ask?" Rosa, one of Frida's bandmates, asked through the phone. "Let's just I've got a nice surprise waiting for ya both!" Frida answered. "Aya, I need two of those potion things you make for Rosa and Teeny, please!" Frida requested. "No problem!" Aya said, pulling out two unmodified calabashes.

Just as the boys, Nyansipo included, were about to open up their Calabashes, Raul the moustache went and got Manny's attention by making some miming motions. "What? You need to get off my upper lip before I drink my potion?" Manny asked, to which Raul made a miming motion that said 'Yes'. "Alright, but can we find a way to do so without you-" Manny said only for Raul to remove himself from Manny's lip in the usual way, causing him immense pain. "YEEOOWWWW!" Manny cried. That made everyone cringe at Manny's pain. "Yeah, definitely like waxing!" Lori noted. "Here, let me heal you!" Adelaide said as she used her Healing Moon ability on Manny. "Thanks, Adelaide." Manny said. Raul made a miming motion, saying he's sorry, just a disembodied brown monobrow (Browsia, Raul's wife) flew over to his side. "Oh, hey, Browsia, long time no see." Manny said, recognizing the monobrow.

Browsia then made some miming motions of her own, saying 'Same to you!'. "Browsia?" Everyone who didn't know about Raul's wife asked in confusion. "She's a sentient pair of eyebrows-" Frida said, before being interrupted by Lisa. "I believe the technical term would be monobrow, which is a single eyebrow created when the two eyebrows meet in the middle above the bridge of the nose!" Lisa informed. "Now's not the time for a science lesson, Lisa!" Frida complained. "My apologies!" Lisa apologized. "Right, anyway, Browsia is originally the eyebrows that originally belonged to Sophia, who so happens to be Don Baffi's granddaughter, and Raul fell madly in love with Browsia, so he asked Manny to be his wingman at a double date with Browsia and Sophia, though Manny wasn't so keen on dating on Sophia on the account of her being aggressive and overbearing in her personality and being somewhat unattractive with Browsia on her face!" Frida said before eyeing Browsia and saying "No offense, by the way!" to her. Browsia made a gesture saying 'none taken'.

"Thanks! Anyway, during the double dates, Manny had to put up with Sophia's extreme romantic antics, such her forcing him to eat yak cheese goulash, which made him really sick to the point of puking, and making him wear a wool vest she made from cactus needles, which really hurt him! However, Manny reached the limit of his patience at the Renaissance Fair, when he and Sophia were in the Tunnel of Love and she was very close to kissing him, only for him to jump away and tell her that he's not in love with her and he only dated her for Raul's sake, which made her heartbroken and then furious to the point on going after on a boat chase, which caused her boat to crash, and then angrily slap him across the face! Of course, later that night, Raul convinced Manny to go to Sophia's to apologize to her, which she quickly accepted! But then, just when Manny was about to reluctantly kiss Sophia, Don Baffi came in and attacked him and Raul after thinking that they were using her to get him, though Manny didn't know that Sophia was his granddaughter to begin with! Thankfully, after Browsia stopped Don Baffi and his men from attacking Manny and when Sophia explained that Raul and Browsia are in love, that actually moved Don Baffi with tears of joy, saying he cannot get in the way of true love! Afterwards, Raul and Browsia got married and then removed themselves from Manny and Sophia's faces. Ironically, while Manny found Sophia to be a lot prettier without Browsia on her face, Sophia, on the other hand, actually found Manny to be repulsive without a moustache, right before they yelled in pain and passed out, obviously an aftereffect of Raul and Browsia ripping themselves off of their faces!" Frida explained. "Ow, that sucks!" Lincoln said.

"Tell me about it! Not only did I get rejected by a girl, but it was the third time that I was in so much physical pain!" Manny said. "Well, at least you got me now!" Frida said. "Good point, Frida!" Manny said. "Can I have a muscle potion, too?" Davi asked. "Don't worry, Davi, I came prepared and made an extra one, just in case!" Nyansipo said as he handed an extra muscle potion to Davi. "Gracias!" Davi said. "You're welcome!" Nyansipo said. "Well, then, down the hatch, gentlemen!" Lincoln said as he and the other boys drank down their potions. "Whoa, surprisingly tasty!" They all said, right before they all covered in a bright blue light. For Denkyem and Mpatapo, they both gained six-pack abs under their shirts and some muscle on their arms and legs that are not very big, but definitely visible. For Ricky, he also got six-pack abs and significantly bigger arm and leg muscles. For Lincoln, Clyde, Edge, Casey, Sameer, Laird, Cianán, Makros, Aden, Davi, Hideki, and Nyansipo, they got six-pack abs too, and somewhat bigger muscles on their arms and legs, not to mention Lincoln and Clyde somehow gained mustaches and small beards as well as a fine amount of chest hairs, while Nyansipo, Hideki, and Aden gained noticable bulges in their shorts. For Manny, Shintomaru, CJ, Charley, and Emizel, they too gained six-pack abs and more pronounced arm and leg muscles, plus some pectoral muscles, though in CJ's case he also lost a lot of weight on his belly in the process, while in Manny's case he gained a moustache and a small goatee, and in Charley and Emizel's case, they both gained slightly bigger bulges in their shorts than those of Aden, Hideki, and Nyansipo. For Kairos, he also gained six-pack abs and much more developed arm and leg muscles as well pectoral muscles, plus gaining a somewhat bigger bulge in shorts than those of Charley and Nyansipo. For Tomoki, because of the type of potion he drank, he gained neither six-pack abs nor muscles, but did gain a bulge in his shorts that's obviously bigger than Kairos's. Finally, for Bobby and Par, they gained six-pack abs too and way bigger arm, leg, and pectoral muscles, kind of like sports athletes, and also fuller beards, mustaches, and chest hairs. Once, the blue light died out, the boys looked at themselves in awe and astonishment.

"Now this is what I was hoping for when I originally made the male equivalent potion!" Nyansipo said as the girls blushed heavily at the sights of their respective boyfriends. "Holy Beefcake!" Lori swooned as she went over to Bobby and started feeling up his arm muscles. "I'm sure Ofui would be very proud to hear one of her descendants has successfully built on what was one of her greatest accomplishments." Aya told Nyansipo while putting the finishing touches on the beauty enhancement potions Frida just asked her to make and struggling to not focus too much on Denkyem until she was finished. "Now that's a good look on you, Kairos!" Fuka said as she went and hugged Kairos from behind while Jalissa, Azalee, Stella, Aoife, Aika, Atea, Nagi, and Yaa did the same thing with their respective boyfriends. "Thanks, Fuka! I... Wait... What's this weird feeling down there?" Kairos asked himself in confusion before looking down and seeing that he started having a rather impressively sized stiffie poking through his shorts. "*Chuckle!* So that's what it feels like to have a stiffie! Who'd it thought it be this big though?" Kairos said with a bashful blush and smile before trying to covering his 'situation' with his shirt. "Dang, your's is bigger than ours!" Casey, Shintomaru, and Edge said in shock. "Or mine, Hideki, Aden, and Nyansipo's!" Cianan said. "Really? Nice!" Hideki and Aden said. "Huh, so I'm the same size as you, Cianan! Figures!" Nyansipo noted. "Looks like mine and Emizel's are slightly smaller than yours, Kairos, even with the combo potion, which kind of makes sense since you're 14 and I'm 13 while Emizel's only physically 13!" Charley noted. "Yeah, though I shouldn't have taken it on the account of already being well-endowed down there to begin with!" Emizel lamented. "I still find you attractive though, Emizel!" Nagi said, making Emizel blush. "Well, I don't want to brag, but mine's a tad bigger than Kairos's!" Tomoki said as he got a slightly bigger 'situation' poking through his own shorts, making Yaa really swoon over him. "Dang, his weiner is really as big as a Horse's! Now that's dangerous!" Emizel said in shock. "Dangerous? Not to me, it ain't! If anything, it's alluring!" Yaa said while still swooning. "Well, it's not literally horse-sized, but it's close enough, I can admit that!" Tomoki admitted sheepishly while covering his 'situation' with a blanket he had in his pocket. "By the way, Yaa-chan, please don't try to make love with me until after we get married, as soon as we get back to Spider Valley, okay? I am quite ready to be a father just yet, you know!" Tomoki reminded, making Yaa get her own senses back in check. "Oh, right, of course! Sorry, my love!" Yaa said sheepishly. "Uh, guys, is it just me or, does my face and chest feel a little hairy?" Lincoln asked upon touching his face. "You're not the only one, Buddy! My face and chest are feeling hairy too!" Clyde said while touching his face. "Now that you two mentioned it, so are my face and chest!" Manny said in realization. "Wait a minute, does anyone have a mirror?" Manny asked. "I got one, since I always want to keep an eye on my beautiful face to make sure it stays that way!" Lola said while pulling out a hand mirror before giving it to Manny, who then looked in the mirror and gasped in shock and exclaimed "Holy Chalupa!" upon seeing his new mustache and goatee before handing it over to Lincoln and Clyde, who both gasped upon seeing their moustaches and beards. "What the heck?! We have moustaches and beards?!" They both asked in shock before they and Manny looking into their shirts and seeing their chest hairs. "Chest hairs, too?!" Lincoln, Clyde, and Manny asked in shock. "Well, that's odd! And now that I realize it, I've got a full beard, mustache, and more chest hairs!" Bobby realized while looking at himself. "Me too!" Par realized. "Okay, what gives, Nyansipo? I thought you said that your potions prevent the growth of facial hairs and body hairs in boys! How do you explain that?" Aurachnid asked in confusion. "I think I have an idea, but let me check!" Nyansipo said before reading the auras of the three middle school boys and two college aged men. "Just as I thought! Apparently, Lincoln, even though it didn't get rid of the side effect that prevents voice changes, because you and Clyde had already gained at least one moustache hair and chest hair naturally at age eleven, not to mention that Bobby and Par already had grown facial and body hairs years ago, that caused the potions you guys drank to make that specific side effect go in a different direction, meaning that it now encourages the growth facial and body hair, pubic hair included, instead of preventing it! Same goes for you, Manny, since you gained your sentient moustache Raul through artificial means, if you know what I mean!" Nyansipo said after reading their auras, much to the surprise of Lincoln, Clyde, Bobby, Par, and Manny.

"Whoa! Cool! I've got a goatee, and my own moustache!" Manny said. "No offense, by the way, Raul, you're still the greatest moustache ever, after all!" Manny said, to which Raul replied with a 'None Taken' gesture. "Well, on the bright side, with a white beard and moustache, at least I can easily dress up as Colonel Sanders for Halloween or as Santa Claus for this Christmas!" Lincoln noted. "For me, I can easily dress up as younger LeBron James for Halloween or a bearded elf for Christmas!" Clyde noted. "Of course, this also means that we need to ask our dads on how to shave!" He added. "Oh, right, of course!" Lincoln noted. "Anyway, I'll go back to our world and grab the other Moon Goats for you, Luna-neechan!" Shintomaru said opening an Aurora Curtain and walking through. "And, I'll bring Adara over here to meet you and Nagi, Emizel!" Stella said as she followed Shintomaru through the portal.

Later...

"So all you girls have to do is drink these and since you're both 13, you'll go from that, to that." Aya told Rosa and Teeny giving them Potions and pointing to Frida. "Whoa! Seriously, Freeds? Is that why you're so stacked, now?!" Teeny asked in shock. "Well, if you mean by 'well-endowed', then, yes!" Frida said. "Dang, girl!" Rosa said. "On a plus side, the beauty enhancement potion has other benefits, mainly weight loss, making menstruation literally painless, preventing acne, scoliosis, diabetes, osteoporosis, memory loss, and cancer, and even gives girls Eternal Youth, which in turn prevents arthritis, menopause, and all other effects of old age, not to mention that it prevents all sorts of fertility and birth-related issues including infertility, miscarriages, stillbirths, and even death by childbirth!" Aya explained. "Well then what are you waiting for, magic girl?" Rosa asked as she and Teeny grabbed a Calabash, uncorked them, and drank the contents.

That caused them both to glow in a bright pink light. As that happened, both Rosa and Teeny blossomed into F-Cups, though in the latter's case, she also completely lost a lot of fat from her belly, arms, hands, legs, feet, and even her face, as well as straightening out her back and neck, and even gave her some added height on her arms, legs, and torso to accommodate for the weight loss, making Teeny thinner, taller, and a lot more attractive in appearance. Once the pink light had died out, Rosa and Teeny looked at themselves in astonishment, though Teeny was more amazed at her weight loss and sudden growth spurt than anything. "Whoa! Did I just lose weight and get taller in addition to have F-Cups?!" Teeny asked in surprise. "You sure did, girl!" Rosa and Frida said. "I'm guessing that you were almost due for a growth spurt, so the potion must have activated it to accommodate for your instant weight loss in addition to your breast growth!" Aya noted. "And I must say, you girls are looking awesome!" Frida said as Shintomaru walked through the Aurora Curtain, Sam, Sully, and Mazzy with him. "Ah, just in time! Get ready, girls, for the reason I asked you to get your instruments is because we are about to do a collab with a rock band from another dimension!" Frida said. "A Collab?!" Rosa asked in surprise "With Another Rock Band?!" Teeny asked in equal surprise.

"You got that right, I'm Luna, this is my girlfriend Sam, and my friends Sully and Mazzy, we're known as the Moon Goats." Luna said. "Moon Goats? What made you guys come with that name?" Rosa asked in confusion. "And did we just hear you say that Sam is your girlfriend, even though you are a girl yourself?" Teeny asked in confusion. "Well for one thing, my name means Moon in Latin." Luna pointed out. "As for the 'Goats' part, well, it's a little play on 'Goat Horns', as in the alternate name for the 'Rock On' hand gesture!" Sully said while making said hand gesture, consisting of the index finger being up, middle fingers being down, pinky being up, and thumb being inward. "Also, we like goats as our favorite animals!" Mazzy said. "As for the girlfriend thing, well, it's kind of difficult to explain, but Luna and I are just as much in love as any male/female duos in this world, even in spite of the differences, long story." Sam said. "Okay?" Teeny said in confusion. "Well, to get this out of the way, I'm Rosa, and this is Teeny!" Rosa said as she introduced herself and Teeny.

"The three of us are the Atomic Sombreros!" Frida said. "Nice to meet you girls!" Sam said. "Why don't you guys get everything set up while Frida and I work out the important details?" Luna suggested. "Okay!" Sam, Rosa, Mazzy, Teeny, and Sully said before doing so. "So, what are you thinking we perform?" Frida asked. "After all that craziness that happened today, there's only one song that comes to mind!" Luna said, playing the opening notes to 'Livin La Vida Loca' on her guitar. "You're suggesting 'Livin' La Vida Loca'?" Frida asked in surprise. "Nice!" She said. As soon as Frida said that, Stella came through the portal with Kairos's younger yet taller sister Adara behind her. As well as Axolota. "Adara, over here!" Kairos said. "Kairos? Since when did you have such muscle tone?" Adara asked in shock upon noticing Kairos's new look. "Turns out Aya's cousin Nyansipo was able to finally figure out that male equivalent potion. Unfortunately it didn't do a thing about my height." Kairos explained.

"Which, I don't mind, since I'm okay with your current height!" Fuka said, making Kairos blush. This made Adara chuckle. "Anyway, as I'm sure Stella told you, here we have the real life Nagi and Emizel." Kairos said. Once Adara finally noticed Emizel and Nagi, she squealed loudly like the fan girl she is before rushing up to them. "Yeah, I probably should have seen that coming." Kairos said as his ears were ringing. "Oh My Gosh! It's So Nice To Meet You For Reals, Emizel and Nagi! I'm Adara Sideris, And I'm A Big Fan And Shipper Of You Two!" Adara said in excitement while shaking Emizel and Nagi's hands very fast. "Yes, your not so big brother told us about that." Emizel said, snickering upon seeing the height difference between the Sideris siblings. "I Heard That!" Kairos said in annoyance. "I swear, if I had a dollar for every time someone called me either that or her younger brother!" He said in agitation.

"Easy, now, my love!" Fuka said, trying to calm her boyfriend down. "Well, I'm sure you'll be happy to hear Emizel and I are romantically involved." Nagi said, making Adara squeal loudly in delight. "Yeah, definitely saw that coming." Kairos said. "Can I have an autograph from the both of you?" Adara asked gleefully. "Oh, sure!" Emizel said. "Why not?" Nagi said as she pulled out a photo featuring herself and Emizel sitting together at a table drinking a glass of soda with two straws, right before she and Emizel signed their names at the bottom of the picture and then gave it to Adara, much to the fan girl's delight. "Thanks!" Adara said. "Axolota?" A voice said as Axolota turned to see Mavortius. "Big Brother!" She said in delight, hugging the Barred Tiger Salamander Animarius. "It's so good to see you too, Little Sister!" Mavortius said. "I'm so glad you're safe, Gorf told me about the tracker chip, I can't forgive them for such a cowardly tactic." Mavortius said.

"Yeah, I was really scared about that tracking chip, to be honest!" Axolota said. "But everyone was able to find a way around all of that." She said. "He also told me that you two are engaged?" Mavortius said. "Yes, it was the most wonderful thing he had ever done for me!" Axolota said in tears of joy. "I always knew Gorf was the perfect man for you, Axolota, I couldn't be happier for the two of you, and would be delighted to give your marriage my blessings." Mavortius said. "Really?! Thank You, Big Brother! It Means So Much To Me!" Axolota exclaimed in joy. "And me as well, Mavortius, I promise, once all this is over, I will give Axolota the best life she deserves." Gorf assured. "I'm glad to hear it, Gorf!" Mavortius replied. "Aw, that's so sweet!" Sakura said before noticing Lincoln pondering over the other Soul Cores accidentally ejected from his driver that Manny was able to grab before Cerberion and Goliathus. "What are you thinking about, Lincoln-kun?" Sakura asked, getting Lincoln's attention. "I'm wondering if I should seal these Soul Cores back in my driver, or like we're doing with Siberius, have Electra and Eury revive them and give them a second chance." Lincoln said.

"Whose Soul Cores are these?" Jaguaron asked in confusion. "Batkor, Cassowarius, a Pangolin, Stork, and Red Tailed Hawk Animarius who now that I think about it, I never really got their names." Lincoln said. "Batkor? That's my cousin's name!" Ectoby realized. "Hmm...what do you two think?" Lincoln asked Toadus and Siberius. "Batkor and Pangoro, that's the Pangolin Animarius's name, are from the Mammal Army, so I'm sure they'll listen to reason after I tell them about what Leonidas had done to me!" Siberius said. "Cassowarius, Storkana, and Hawktor are from the Bird Army, so I hope they will listen to reason, especially since we already have four Bird Animarius soldiers that have already defeated from the Empire!" Toadus said while looking at Ibiscus, Toucanick, Curassock, and Fregatax. "Also, this might be embarrassing for me to mention this, but, Storkana just so happens to be my girlfriend!" Ibiscus admitted in embarrassment. "Very well then. Electra, Eury?" Lincoln asked the Alebrijes of life and death who nodded before using their powers on the Soul Cores.

Once that happened, Batkor (the Vampire Bat Animarius), Pangoro (the Pangolin Animarius), Cassowarius (the Cassowary Animarius), Storkana (the Stork Animarius), and Hawktor (the Red-Tailed Hawk Animarius) were all suddenly revived, much to their own confusion. "Storkana!" Ibiscus called, catching the Stork Animarius' attention. "Ibiscus!" Storkana said in delight, hugging him. "We're alive? But how?" Batkor asked in confusion. "You can thank me for that." Lincoln said, catching their attention. "LL?!" They all asked in shock.

Enough Time To Explain What Just Happened Later...

"So now I'm giving you guys a choice, you can either choose to hide out in Toadus and Gorfs' hideout, a temple protected by a magic barrier, or a cave in Japan, but if you choose Toadus and Gorfs' hideout or the temple, you'd have to help us against our enemies, which includes the Animarius Empire, and if you choose the cave, you would be given jobs at a Shinto Shrine and have to wear human disguises." Lincoln explained. "Uh, well, I don't know how much use I'll be, since I have this weakness towards sunlight that really burns me alive, being a Vampire Bat and all!" Batkor said. "That's kind of ironic, considering that real Vampire Bats don't have that kind of weakness, which happens to be associated with the mythical Vampires that they're named after!" Lisa said. "Which reminds me, don't think that we haven't forgotten that fact that you broke all our windows and threatened to drop Lily from the sky!" Lucy said to Batkor angrily. "We are willing to allow you to atone for your sins, plus I can rebuild the armor Aquilis built for you and give it an upgrade that can protect you from your weakness to light." Lisa said.

"Just be warned, don't you ever threaten Lily or any of our family ever again, otherwise, I'll turn into an Animarius Pretzel!" Lori threatened angrily, making Batkor gulp in fright. "Yes, Ma'am!" Batkor replied in compliance. "And that goes for you too, Storkana! We still remember that you kidnapped our Mom during Mother's Day!" Lori said, making Storkana gulp nervously while Ibiscus was shocked at that. "You kidnapped their mother, but why, my love?" Ibiscus asked in shock. "*Sigh!* Lieutenant Tytus summoned me and had me kidnap and gather up every human mother in Royal Woods! Why, you ask? Well, it turned out that it's because she was actually looking for advice from them on what to do for her mother General Aquilis on this human holiday called Mother's Day! Unfortunately, after she got what she wanted, she said I had fulfilled my purpose and then used her Animari Nino's Kaze no Giro to reduce me back to a Soul Core!" Storkana admitted in shame, much to the shock of everyone that didn't know about that day.

"Yeah, she just destroyed me the moment I'm no longer needed, and that made me feel miserable!" Storkana said. "Guess that was before Aquilis made her plans." Toucanick muttered. "Well, Storkana, you can stay with me at the Temple, if you want!" Ibiscus offered. "Thank you." Storkana said. "What about everyone else?" Lincoln asked. "Uh, I'll go wherever Siberius is going!" Pangoro said. "Same here!" Batkor said. "I'll go to the temple with Storkana!" Cassowarius said. "Same with me!" Hawktor said. "Perfect." Lincoln said.

At The Animarius Castle...

King Draco was looking very angry and disappointed at General Leo, who was covering the right side of his face with a fresh towel. "General Leo, I'm very unhappy with you, specifically the fact that you injected Siberius with the Berserker Crocus Essence! I explicitly banned that substance, because I see it as an addictive drug that would make Animarius soldiers mentally weak and I'd rather have their mental capacity to be as strong as their bodies!" King Draco angrily told General Leo. "Okay, in my defense, Siberius refused to obey me without it!" Leo said. "Still though-" King Draco said. "Your majesty! We are receiving a transmission from Animari Prime!" Elephantor called. "Animari Prime, you say? That must be Kabuto!" King Draco realized.

"This isn't over!" He told General Leo. "Kabuto, I'm so glad to see you've arrived on Animari Prime safely." He told Kabuto over the communicator in the throne room. "Thank you, your majesty." Kabuito said. "Kabuto, how are you doing brother?" A recently revived Kuwagata asked. "Kuwagata? But how?" Kabuto asked in confusion. "A mishap in the recent battle against LL and his allies caused a bunch of Soul Cores to be released from his driver. We were able to retrieve Kuwagata's, as well as Shaos, Serpoparda, and Sphinxia's." King Draco said, pointing to said revived Animarius. "Whoa! Didn't see that one coming!" Kabuto noted. "Neither did they." King Draco said. "Anyway, I called to let you know I found plenty of the metal needed to repair my sword, and if all goes well, should return with a new sword a couple of days after that Solar Eclipse thing Hell's Watchdog keeps blabbering on about." Kabuto said.

"That's good to note, though I can just easily bring you here quickly through a portal! Is there anything else you need to talk about?" King Draco asked. "Actually, yes, there is!" Kabuto replied. "Look what I found!" He said, holding up the Soul Core depicting a female Black Widow Spider he uncovered in the old castle site. "*SHRIEK!* SPIDER!" Kuwagata screamed in terror. "Wait, is that the Soul Core for Blackaranea, leader of the legendary Arachnid tribe? One of the tribes that tried to overthrow my parents?" King Draco asked. "Sure is. I found it and the others at the original site of the castle." Kabuto said, gesturing to the chests he found the other Soul Cores in. "All 16 of the legendary tribes are here?!" King Draco asked upon quickly counting the treasure chests. He then smirked maliciously. "Send them." He ordered. "At once, you're Majesty!" Kabuto replied. "Open up a portal to Animari Prime and send some Neo-Lizardons through to get them!" King Draco ordered. "Yes, your Majesty!" Cicadeath and Flygor said at once before flying over to the Dimension Gate, setting the coordinates to Animari Prime, and then opened it, allowing General Kabuto to be seen on the other side.

Back With The Others...

Toadus opened his eyes in shock. "No, he can't be!" He said worriedly. "Master, what's wrong?" Gorf asked. "Yeah, what's with the frightened look?" Manny asked in confusion. "The forbidden tribes, the ones that tried to overthrow the previous king and queen, they've been uncovered, and I fear King Draco is about to revive them!" Toadus said. That made everyone gasp in shock and worry. "What kind of animals are these 'Forbidden Tribes' based off of?" Lincoln asked. "The 16 Forbidden Tribes consist of the Arachnids, Crustaceans, Myriapods, Mollusks, Worms, Cnidarians, Echinoderms, Entognathans, Dinocarids, Artiopods, Synapsids, Chelicerates, Lobopods, Onychophorans, Tardigrades, and Sponges!" Toadus explained. "Okay, Arachnids, Crustaceans, Mollusks, Worms, Echinoderms, Tardigrades, and Sponges I've heard of, but what are the others supposed to be?" Lincoln asked Lisa. "Cnidarians are a group of animals who use stinging cells to hunt and paralyze their prey, with the most well known members being Jellyfish, Sea Anemones, and Corals, to name a few!" Lisa explained.

"Entognathans are a class of wingless and ametabolous, or slight to no metamorphosis in insects, arthropods, which together with the insects make up the subphylum Haxapoda, examples include Proturans, Diplurans, and Springtails." She added. "The Dinocarids are a class of extinct marine arthropods that were characterized by a pair of frontal appendages for grabbing prey and a series of body flaps for swimming, with the most recognizable individuals being Anomalocaris and Opabinia to name a few!" Lisa explained. "Artiopods are extinct Arthropods that include Trilobites and their close relatives." She added. "Synapsids were a fossil group of mammal-like reptiles from the Permian and Triassic Eras, obviously called as such due to their members showing increasingly mammalian characteristics, with some of them being the ancestors of mammals, most notably Gorgonopsids, Cynodonts, Docodonts, Caseids, Edaphosaurs, Therocephalians, and Sphenacodonts, with the last one that the famous Dimetrodon belongs to, to name a few!" Lisa said.

"Chelicerates are members of the Arthropoda subdivision Chelicerata, of which examples include Sea Spiders, Horseshoe Crabs, and Arachnids, though from what Master Toadus has indicated, this tribe only includes the non-Arachnid ones, plus it includes a number of extinct lineages, such as the Eurypterids a.k.a. Sea Scorpions and Chasmataspidids." She added. "Lobopods are a group of soft-bodied, marine worm-like fossil panarthropods, examples including the Aysheaia and Hallucigenia." Lisa explained. "The latter of which being the Sea Animal that my cousin Halluciopterachne is partially based on!" Walliscoros said as he appeared. "What kind of powers does he have?" Ronnie Anne asked. "She! My cousin is female!" Walliscoros corrected. "Sorry!" Ronnie Anne apologized. "Anyway, my cousin's Reality powers are pretty much similar to my Dimension powers, since she's capable of traveling to different universes like myself, though the difference is that she's has the ability to warp, manipulate, and control Reality, though she prefers to keep that at a minimum, as to not damage existence itself or anger a certain higher power!" Walliscoros explained.

"Huh! That makes sense, I guess!" Ronnie Anne noted. "Orychophorans, commonly and erroneously known as Velvet Worms, or more ambiguously as peripatus, are soft bodied, many legged animals that despite their cuddly appearance are quite vicious predators of small ground dwelling invertebrates and are capable of squirting a sticky, quick hardening slime at their prey." Lisa explained. "EWWWWWWW!" Everyone said in disgust. "Yeah!" Lisa said. "So, let me get this straight, there are 16 Forbidden Tribes, which means, combined with the 8 tribes already in Animarius Empire, that makes a total of 24 Animarius tribes, right?" Edge asked. "I'm afraid so!" Toadus confirmed. "And how powerful were these Forbidden Tribes?" Shintomaru asked. "Very Powerful!" Toadus answered. "Yikes!" Lincoln said. "Indeed, they were all gathered together by Blackaranea, a Black Widow Animarius, who was the leader of the Arachnids and power hungry, she wasn't the biggest fan of King Draco's parents, and wanted to take over Animari Prime's throne for herself." Toadus explained. "And what exactly made her power hungry in the first place?" Clyde asked in confusion. "No one knows." Toadus said. "Yikes! That spider sounds crazy!" Aurachnid said. "Indeed." Toadus said. "Hey, it looks like Luna-neechan and Frida-chan has everything set up!" Sakura said.

"Alright, everyone ready?" Luna asked. "Ready!" Sam, Mazzy, Sully, Rosa, and Teeny said at once. "Then let's get this party started! Uno, Dos, Tres, Cuatro! Hit It!" Frida said as she and Luna started playing their guitars while fireworks set off from their platform, which had the image of the Moon Goats' logo (a Goat's head with an earring on the right ear and surrounded by a keyhole on the right, a pyramid on the left, and a crescent moon on the top) while wearing the Atomic Sombreros' logo (a golden sombrero with a black-colored 'A' and 'S' on it with a orangish lightning bolt in the middle of the two letters) as a hat. Then, Sully played his electronic keyboard while Sam and Rosa played their bass guitars and Mazzy and Teeny played their drum sets, all into the tune of "Livin' La Vida Loca" (originally sung by Ricky Martin).

(Frida Suarez)
Let's Rock! ~She's into superstitions, black cats and voodoo dolls!~ Take it, Luna!

(Luna Loud)
~I feel a premonition that girl's gonna make me fall!~

(At that moment, the crowds of people started dancing around, with those that are already romantic couples performing either ballroom dances, samba dances, and other types of dances.)

(Frida Suarez)
~She's into new sensations, new kicks and candlelight!~

(Luna Loud)
~She's got a new addiction for every day and night!~

(Frida Suarez and Luna Loud together)
~She'll make you take your clothes off and go dancing in the rain!~
~She'll make you live her crazy life!~
~But she'll take away your pain!~
~Like a bullet to your brain!~

(All members of the Atomic Sombreros and Moon Goats)
~Upside inside out!~
~Livin' La Vida Loca!~
~She'll push and pull you down!~
~Livin' La Vida Loca!~
~Her lips are devil red!~
~And her skin's the color mocha!~
~She will wear you out!~
~Livin' La Vida Loca!~
~Livin' La Vida Loca!~
~Livin' La Vida Loca!~

(Then, Frida did a little guitar solo before allowing Luna to do a guitar solo of her own.)

(Luna Loud)
~I woke up in New York City!~
~In a funky cheap hotel!~
~She took my heart and she took my money!~
~She must have slipped me a sleeping pill!~

(Frida Suarez)
~She never drinks the water and makes you order French champagne!~

(Luna Loud)
~And once you've had a taste of her you'll never be the same!~

(Frida Suarez and Luna Loud together)
~Yeah, she'll make you go insane!~

(All members of the Atomic Sombreros and Moon Goats)
~Upside inside out!~
~Livin' La Vida Loca!~
~She'll push and pull you down!~
~Livin' La Vida Loca!~
~Her lips are devil red!~
~And her skin's the color mocha!~
~She will wear you out!~
~Livin' La Vida Loca!~
~Livin' La Vida Loca!~
~Livin' La Vida Loca!~
Here We Go!

(Then Frida and Luna did a long epic guitar duet, right before resuming the song)

(Frida Suarez and Luna Loud together)
~She'll make you take your clothes off and go dancing in the rain!~
~She'll make you live her crazy life, but she'll take away your pain!~
~Like a bullet to your brain!~
Come on!

(All members of the Atomic Sombreros and Moon Goats)
~Upside, inside out!~
~She's Livin' La Vida Loca!~
~She'll push and pull you down!~
~Livin' La Vida Loca!~
~Her lips are devil red!~
~And her skin's the color mocha!~
~She will wear you out!~
~Livin' La Vida Loca!~
Come on now!
~Livin' La Vida Loca!~
~Livin' La Vida Loca!~
~She's Livin' La Vida Loca!~
One more time now!
~Livin' La Vida Loca!~

(After that, both rock bands did a finishing instrumental before the fireworks set off again as everyone cheered.)

A few minutes later...

After the Neo-DEAVA members, Ninja Turtles, and the Veteran Riders and Sentai Teams have returned to their homes, the interdimensional heroes (plus, the newly reformed Animarius soldiers and Hideki with his four white kittens) started packing up and then said their goodbyes to Manny and the local heroes before heading back to their home dimension, with Manny and Frida look on before eyeing each other and then kissed each other romantically. Unbeknownst to anyone, Zoe was on a roof watching this from a set of binoculars. "Dang, three lives in a row!" A voice called, making Zoe turn to see Django. "Django? What do you want?" Zoe asked in confusion. "Well my Dad has been captured and my Nana is about to be whatever they're doing to her, so I don't really know what to do." Django admitted. "I see!" Zoe noted. "Another thing, well, I was wondering that you and I could become a couple, if you know what I'm saying!" Django said, much to Zoe's shock and surprise. "I mean, even Joaquin was able to move on." He pointed out as memories of her past life of Joaquin filled Zoe's head. *Sigh* "Fine, we'll go on a couple of dates, pull of some heists together, and see where we go from there." Zoe said.

"Gracias, Zoe! I promise you that you won't regret it!" Django said while removing his hat out of respect. "Whatever." Zoe said, walking off.
