Captain Blues: Another Crossover! Let's go!


Mighty Morphin Power Rangers: Final Mix
Crossover II Episode Three: Might Morphin x SPD


[Location: The Command Center – Healing Chambers
POV: Kimberly Ann Hart]

Kimberly's eyes opened in alarm as she found herself in a familiar healing tank, her body wet from the liquid she had floated in moments before. On the outside, she could see Alpha working on getting her out.

On the outside, she saw Zack, Trini, Katherine, and Billy waiting, wide awake but she then noticed two bodies sleeping behind them, which she recognized as Rocky and Ashley.

What were they doing here?

The glass came up and Alpha removed the air mask from her mouth. "I think I've been in here more than anyone now," Kimberly grumbled.

"I know how you feel," Both Zack and Billy said.

"What are Ashley and Rocky doing here?" Kimberly asked.

"Well…Let's just say we have visitors from the future," Trini replied.

For a moment, Kimberly's eyes widened. "The Armada Force Rangers…They're back?" She questioned.

Did Wally return?

Oh no, how was she supposed to explain this to Tommy?

How was she supposed to explain this to Wally?

"No…These are rangers from our direct future," Katherine said. "Alpha explained while we were waiting for you."

"Oh…" Kimberly murmured.

"Don't sound so disappointed," Katherine teased as she held out a hand to Kimberly once she was all unhooked. Kimberly took the hand and gingerly stepped down from the healing tank. Once she was down, Alpha relayed everything that had occurred so far and when it was done, Kimberly said "We need to get down there and help them."

'Especially Jason…' Kimberly thought with a worried thought. Knowing he was out there, still as injured as he was after apparently defeating Goldar worried her.

"I had the same idea," Zack said with a grin. "Since Jase is with that SPD Red Ranger and this new ranger, the SPD Shadow Ranger and SPD Pink Ranger are on the west side so why don't you go and help them, The rest of us get to the east side to rescue. Then we all reconvene with Jason."

Kimberly nodded with a frown. She couldn't explain why, but she was concerned about this new ranger with Jason. She swallowed that worry down and said, "Then let's get to it then…It's Morphin Time!"


[Location: Angel Grove (Northside) – Prometheus Tower]
POV: Morgana]

With a scream, Morgana swung her right arm towards SPD Omega, who blocked the blow right his right forearm before whipping his left arm up in an attempt to land an uppercut. Morgana leaned back to avoid the uppercut before she landed a solid kick to SPD Omega's stomach, which sent him skidding backward against the metal beneath him.

Morgana formed an orb of energy in her right hand and launched it towards SPD Omega but he caught the orb with his left hand and launched it into the air where it exploded, sending a brief shower of purple energy to fall over his body.

The final duel between her and SPD Omega had been even from the start. She was doing all that she could but the longer this battle went on, the more pain her heart felt. "Why?" She breathed out, her eyes closed behind her visor. "Why won't you just die?"

"Sorry but I can't just let you kill me," SPD Omega replied before he rushed forward and performed a flying kick but Morgana rolled to the left to avoid it and when he skidded to a stop, she leaped up and performed a flying knee. SPD Omega turned around and blocked the knee before he pushed her backward.

She skidded backward and leaned back from two jabs before she ducked the third one and slashed her forearm blade up his chest, causing a rain of sparks to splash against her visor.

But again, she felt her heart clench.

She was causing him pain.

SPD Omega staggered backward and Morgana slashed her other forearm blade down his chest, causing another rain of sparks. He attempted a right hook before she leaned back to avoid it while she kicked him in the right knee, sending him down onto one knee.

She then held out her right hand and allowed an orb of energy to form in front of his head. At this range, she could kill him. Thrown off from that thought, her arm moved and the orb flew past SPD Omega's head and into the air behind before it exploded.

Why?

Why had that thrown her off so much?

She wanted to kill him so why did she intentionally miss him?

Morgana dashed backward to gain some distance but he didn't follow her. He just sat there on one knee, staring at her. "S-Stop it…" she breathed out angrily. "Stop staring at me!" Morgana screamed as she formed two orbs of energy in each hand and launched them towards SPD Omega.

SPD Omega revved up his morpher and shouted "Light Beam Mode!" With a glowing left hand, he launched his hand forward, allowing for an energy orb of his own to fly out and collide with the smaller orbs, causing an explosion that sent both Morgana and SPD Omega flying backward.

Morgana landed on her back and skidded against the floor before she stopped near the edge. She leaned up off the ground and saw SPD Omega through the smoke, his body leaning up off the floor as well.

She felt relief at the sight of him but that relief quickly melted away into anger and despair. Why did seeing him make her feel such elation?! Frustrated, Morgana screamed, "Damn it!" She took off her helmet and launched at SPD Omega but it lost steam halfway and rolled to a stop beside him. She could feel tears of anger fall from her eyes as she punched the steel floor beneath her. "Why can't I kill you?!" She wailed before she lowered her head and whimpered "Why don't I want to kill you?"

She could hear footsteps coming to a stop in front of her but she didn't even bother raising her head because she knew who it was. Without warning, she warm arms encircled her body and soon, she was being hugged by the SPD Omega Ranger.

"I…" Morgana whispered, unable to make another word.

"I don't want to kill you either…" She heard him whisper into her ear.

Morgana felt tears prickling her eyes as she wrapped her arms around him and began to cry. Was it out of anger? Relief? Happiness? She didn't know but what she did know was that she didn't want to leave his arms.


[Location: Angel Grove (Eastside) – Warehouse District]
POV: SPD Pink Ranger]

'Jack…I hope everything is going well on your side…' SPD Pink thought as she walked beside her Commander, her S.W.A.T armor active on her body and her Delta Enforcer in her hands.

They had been walking in this area for the past twenty minutes and they were unable to find anything yet and she was growing concerned. "Commander, how far are we from locating the group?" SPD Pink asked.

"We're getting closer…" SPD Shadow replied. "I understand your worries but we will find them Cadet Drew. I promise you that."

It was then the two heard the sounds of battle coming from a warehouse ahead of them. When the two ran forward, they stopped when the saw a Putty fly out of the warehouse. When they entered the room, they saw SPD Kat in the middle of the room.

Sitting in the corner were a stunned Adam Park and Aisha Campbell.

"Dr. Manx," SPD Pink exclaimed in happiness but SPD Shadow held up his hand to stop her movement.

"Where is he?" SPD Kat hissed, her voice low and dangerous.

"Be careful…Dr. Manx is currently in a frenzy. Go to the other hostages…" SPD Shadow softly commanded.

SPD Pink looked at him with alarm but when he didn't look back but kept his arm in front of her, she nodded and slipped away by going behind him and slowly began to approach Adam and Aisha.

"You two okay?" SPD Pink asked.

"Dude, this has been a day," Adam replied.

"What happened?" SPD Pink asked.

"Well, Adam and I woke up tied to her and she woke up asking for someone named "Bridge" and when she saw us…Well she knew we were hostages but she got really pissed off and destroyed those things," Aisha explained.

It was then she turned around to hear what SPD Shadow and SPD Kat were talking about.

"Dr. Manx, I understand your concern over Cadet Carson but you must calm down," SPD Shadow said as he slowly approached her.

"He belongs to me and they took him," SPD Kat hissed, her breathing deep and her shoulders hunched over, fingers bending and straightening repeatedly.

"Dr. Manx…I understand what it is like to have a mate taken from you," SPD Shadow replied softly as SPD Pink watched him grab the hilt of his Shadow Saber, in preparation in case of a fight. "More than anyone else…But right now, this isn't the time to allow our instincts to rule us. We are currently in Angel Grove in 1993 and our team has teamed up with the Original Power Rangers…They are currently looking for him…"

SPD Pink watched as SPD Kat's head moved slowly to face her commander and noticed her body was tense.

Was she about to strike him down?

"I don't want you running across the city looking for him making things worse…So please…just come with us…" SPD Shadow finished as he placed a gentle hand on SPD Kat's shoulder.

SPD Pink watched with bated breath before SPD Kat took a deep breath and then exhaled. "Thank you, Commander…" The good doctor said. "I knew this wasn't a good time but this is all…"

"New?" SPD Shadow questioned.

"New," SPD Kat confirmed.

"Whew!" SPD Pink said before she looked back at the two confused teens. "Life of a ranger, never easy."

"Yeah, we can tell," The pair said in unison.

"That's one party down…Now for the others…" SPD Pink said.

"Well…You guys cleaned up nicely," A voice said from above her. She looked up to see a single ranger and in seeing that ranger, SPD Pink's breath caught in her throat as terror filled her veins.

She had seen images of this ranger.

One that looked just like her but her suit lacked a skirt and all the white on her body was black and there was a pink arm guard on the left arm.

It took SPD Pink all her willpower to realize that this wasn't the feared ranger that disappeared so long ago. Despite Drakkon's fall so many years ago, every known ranger still feared his top enforcer.

Ranger Slayer…

And yet, as she faced the Pink Ranger above her, her body trembled in terror, her Delta Enforcer aimed, and she felt a hand touch her shoulder. She looked back to SPD Shadow behind her. "It's not the slayer…" SPD Shadow told her.

That was right…

This was the original Pink Ranger…

Not the feared Ranger Slayer.

She could relax.

"Hey, Kimberly! What took you so long?!" Aisha exclaimed happily.

"Traffic," Pink said as she hopped down and landed behind Aisha and Adam. "Everything okay?"

"Yeah. Thankfully that ranger over there handled it," Adam said.

"There is like one hundred putties here…" Pink muttered in shock. "She handled this?"

"Yeah, Dr. Manx is cool like that," SPD Pink said. "Hi, Sydney Drew. SPD Pink Ranger."

"Kimberly Ann Hart, Mighty Morphin Pink Ranger," Pink replied. "Nice to see a fellow Pink Ranger…And you must be Commander Cruger, The Shadow Ranger."

"That is correct," SPD Shadow said with a nod.

SPD Kat walked up behind them and said, "I'm Dr. Katherine Manx. Excuse me for being rude. However, we have more people to find."

SPD Shadow looked to the two girls and said, "You guys get to safety."

The pair nodded and ran off.

"Alright…Now time to go help Jason and Jack…" Pink said before tapping her left wrist. "Now Alpha…"

With a flash of light, the four rangers were transported out of there.


[Location: Angel Grove (Northside) – Prometheus Tower]
POV: Morgana]

"Why can't I hate you?" Morgana asked him as she pulled away from the ranger. "My heart…It hurts every time we fight…I was able to ignore it every other time but now I can't…" She took a shuddered breath and said "I could have killed you Sam…I had you dead to rights but I couldn't…It's like somewhere along the line of us fighting that I…"

"That feelings began to occur?" SPD Omega said with understanding.

"But why?" Morgana asked. "How could this have happened?"

"Could be a combination of a lot of things Morgana…" SPD Omega replied. "But I didn't have my heart in this fight. I…Didn't want to damage you." SPD Omega pulled away from her and gently placed a hand on her face, which caused her to look at him. "Didn't want to hurt this pretty face."

"P-Pretty?" Morgana questioned. "You find this form…M-My true form, pretty?"

"Well more than that really…I find you beautiful," SPD Omega admitted.

Morgana had always felt that her adult form…her true form, was hideous, and yet he thinks it's beautiful? "Sam…I…" Morgana began.

"Anytime," SPD Omega replied knowingly.

"I just am so confused about all of this…Why now? I mean…" Morgana paused to take a breath. "I don't know what is going to happen. These feelings…My mission to kill the rangers and my allegiance to Grumm…All these thoughts are in my head…"

"I don't know what to tell you, Morgana. There are some things that only you can sort out," SPD Omega said. "I won't sit here and tell you that it's easy. Just take the time to figure out what you want in your life. You only get one after all…"

Morgana looked at him with a smile but without warning, SPD Omega shoved her to the side with a "Watch out!" and the second did, a black bolt pierced through his chest and out from his back, which caused a large explosion of sparks to fly from his the point of impact and exit.

"Sam!" Morgana screamed in horror as she watched SPD Omega slowly touch the wound in his chest, almost in disbelief.

"Mor…" he breathed out before his ranger suit began to crack and with an explosion, she watched as a young red-haired wearing the familiar SPD uniform but it was bright white, and on the left side was a navy blue star with a golden outline. But in the middle of his chest was blood, that was beginning to blossom. She then watched as his irises seemed to disappear before he fell backward to the ground. On the ground behind him was a bloody black feather, which vanished into violet particles of energy.

"Awww, did I ruin that little blossoming romance?" A familiar voice asked.

Morgana turned around to see Swan Song behind her, his fingertips having faint wisps of smoke. "Emperor Grumm warned me that this could happen and told me if it did, to erase him off the map."

Without thinking, Morgana screamed as she leapt from her spot but she then felt something hot pierce the left side of her body. She crashed down to the ground beside Sam as Swan Song laughed.

"You shouldn't have made your affections for him so clear dear," Swan Song told her. "Both of you are going to perish from your wounds. However, I won't finish you off. I'll let you say your goodbyes to him before you fade away." Swan Song laughed again before he disappeared in a flurry of black feathers.

Morgana could feel her blood seeping her wound as she dragged herself to the downed Ranger. To her surprise, he was still alive. His breathing was very shallow but it was there. "I won't let you die, Sam. We still need to figure this nonsense out! Sam!"


[Location: Angel Grove (Southside) – The Docks
POV: SPD Red Ranger]

With a crash through the window, SPD Red landed into a crouch and immediately fired several shots of his Delta-Blasters blasting down five putties that were in his way before he jumped up and landed a solid knee to the sixth one.

He rolled against the ground and onto his feet to avoid the sword swipes of three putties before he delivered a roundhouse kick to all three of them, sending them to the ground where he then fired his Delta-Blasters at the down enemies.

He then turned around to see twenty more putties surrounding him only to hear "Jack!" being yelled from above.

SPD Red looked up to see Sky, Z, and another male hanging from a light fixture.

"Oh! Hey guys!" SPD Red said.

"Hey yourself!" Z shouted happily. "1993, what a strange year!"

"Right?!" SPD Red said. "I guess your hostage mate told you?!"

"Gave them down low on everything that happened!" The teen shouted. "Names TJ!"

"Jack Landers! SPD Red Ranger!" SPD Red shouted.

"This introduction is nice and all but mind getting some help?" Sky shouted.

"Right!" SPD Red lifted one Delta-Blaster in the air and fired at the rope tied to the fixture, causing it to catch fire. Sky and Z were quickly able to pull the rope off before SPD Red looked at the remaining putties around him.

Seconds later, a shout of "SPD emergency!" accompanied by flashes of Yellow and Blue light and SPD Yellow and SPD Blue, with TJ in his arms, landed beside him. SPD Blue placed TJ on the ground and said, "Get far away from here."

"Don't need to tell me twice. Good luck," TJ said humbly as he ran out the back of the warehouse.

"Well guys…We'll need to hurry because the Mighty Morphin Red Ranger is in danger as well," SPD Red said.

"Hell," SPD Blue said before the trio began to battle the remaining putties but without warning, four beams of light shot down from the roof and when they faded, Pink, SPD Kat, SPD Shadow, and SPD Pink were with them.

"Well…The gang is almost all here," SPD Red said. "All that's missing is Bridge and Sam…"

"He still isn't here…" SPD Kat hissed.

"Where is Jason?!" Pink exclaimed with a worried look.

"Well…He's currently fighting that Robogoat. We got separated…" SPD Red began.

"Damn it!" Pink shouted as she ran off.

SPD Red and SPD Pink exchanged glances before they darted after her.


[Location: Angel Grove (Westside) – Ruins of Downtown
POV: General]

"It's so eerie…" Violet murmured as the four rangers walked down the abandoned downtown area. It had been days since the battle with Goldar and now being back and seeing the aftermath was soul-crushing.

"We were gone for days…It seems no one has started the process of rebuilding," Blue replied as he looked around.

"I mean essentially, the majority of downtown was wiped out…I wonder how many lives were lost during that battle," Black said to the group.

"I don't even want to think about it," Yellow softly replied. "Let's just find these other rangers…"

The moment Yellow finished saying this, the four heard shouts of "Help!" come from the building three buildings down from them.

"You guys heard that right?" Violet asked.

"Oh yeah. Let's jet!" Black said before he ran towards the building, with Yellow, Blue, and Violet trailing behind him. The four rangers ran as fast as they could and once they reached the building, through a hole in the wall, they noticed Tanya, Cassie, and a man in a black and green uniform, being surrounded by Putties.

But what was amusing was that he was calm while the other two were yelling.

"Wanna guess which one is the ranger?" Yellow joked before the four leaped through the wall and crept toward the ground.

"You guys feel like playing "Melt the clay" today?" Black asked.

"Always game for that," Violet said.

"Hmm I do have a little rust from being in the healing tank," Bluethoughtfully muttered.

"Black…You know my answer," Yellow replied.

"Let's do it, to it!" Black yelled as the four charged forward, which caused the Putties to look in alarm before Black and Blue leaped into the air and delivered a double dropkick to two sets of putties.

Yellow and Violet summoned their respective weapons and immediately sliced down three putties in their way before Yellow twirled her right Power Dagger and launched it towards the cement pillar that the three hostages were tied up and sliced through the rope.

Immediately, the man pulled the rope off and delivered one kick to the putty on his right then whipped his leg back and nailed another putty in the face before he said, "I had a feeling you guys would come."

"Welcome to 1993," Blue said with a wave before he caught a putty that had jumped up at him, twisted his body, and brutally slammed the putty onto its back hard, shattering the clay-like body. "My name is Billy Cranston. Mighty Morphin Blue Ranger," Blue introduced.

Black hopped over Blue and delivered a flying clothesline to two putties with both arms spread before he rolled onto his feet and smacked a putty's poor attempt at a kick away from him before landing three quick right jabs at the putty's face before ending it with a left hook. "Zack Taylor. Mighty Morphin Black Ranger," Black said with a salute.

The man opened his mouth to respond but saw two putties heading his way and grabbed the dagger thrown by Yellow and used it to slash at the two clay-like soldiers before he twirled in the air and launched at Yellow, who caught it mid-spin and sliced the head off of a putty.

She then ducked the swing of a putty's sword and launched her dagger into its stomach three times before ending it with a stab between the eyes. "Nice throw! Names Trini Kwan, Mighty Morphin Yellow Ranger."

The man adjusted his jacket before he ran forward and landed a gut strike to a putty before he blocked two jabs from another putty only to deliver an uppercut, where it stumbled backward right into being sliced in half by Violet.

"Katherine Hillard. Mighty Morphin Violet Ranger," Violet said before she twisted her body and swung her Power Whip-Sabre towards four oncoming putties and sliced through all of them at the same time when her blade disconnected, extending the weapon farther.

The blades then collapsed back to a normal sword as she twirled and asked, "And who are you?"

The man grinned and said, "Bridge Carson. There are no more of those putties around so I can't get a fancy way of introducing myself but….SPD Green Ranger."

"Nice to meet you, fellow ranger," Black said as he clapped Bridge on the shoulder before he walked to the tied-up Tanya and Cassie and said "Hey ladies. I'm sorry we're so late."

"We know. Bridge said help was coming but I wasn't expecting him to be right," Cassie said as Black untied her. "How did you know?"

"Simple. I can see auras," Bridge answered. "The minute they appeared in the sky, I was able to locate them. I usually can't do it without using my arms to do it however I've been working on that."

"Wow…You are human right?" Blue asked.

"As human as you are," Bridge said with a cheeky smile. "I just have a bonus due to a lab incident with my parents."

"Well that would do it," Violet said as she freed Tanya from her bindings as well.

"What type of auras can you see?" Yellow questioned.

"Oh, I can see any living being's auras. Oh, speaking of which…." Bridge replied before he waved his arm only for his eyes to widen and then narrow. "Looks like we have an enemy in front of us."

"Hehehe, very astute, SPD Green Ranger…" A familiar voice said and with a flurry of black feathers, Swan Song appeared. "Unfortunately, ruining my grand entrance has some grave consequences…"

At the sight of him, Yellow saw red and quickly shouted, "You son of a bitch!"

"My my….You remembered me after all these years. I'm touched," Swan Song said.

"You're about to be dead," Yellow hissed.

"Well since I am here…" Swan Song said, this time using Black's voice. "I'd love for us to finish our duel…However…" a burst of energy exploded from Swan Song, causing the entire area to glow as white and black energy flowed around him. "I am so much stronger than the last time we fought."

With a shout, Swan Song's body began to glow brightly as he screamed. Suddenly, four large and glowing bird wings sprouted from his back and with a flash of light, the four rangers gasped in shock. Standing before them was Swan Song but instead of his monster form, he was in Black's ranger suit, with the black parts of the suit now a silver-white, and the helmet had two white a pair of wings sprouting from the side. And on his back were four wings, two of them black and the other two platinum-white.

Black and White Feathers floated all around him as he said, "Introducing, Drakkon's Personal Ranger Series One….The Swan Ranger," Swan Ranger said with a laugh.

"Series One?" Blue repeated.

"Swan Ranger?" Yellow hissed.

"Oh yes…The future was beautiful. All of you were dead and as an award for personally killing you, Trini Kwan…Lord Drakkon honored me with the privilege of becoming a ranger…And I decided to take your beloved's ranger suit as a sentimental gift…I always wanted to see if you approved." Swan Ranger tilted his head. "Looks like you do…"

Yellow was practically shaking in fury as she stared at the Swan Ranger, who let out a laugh.

"Tanya…Cassie…Get far away from here…" Yellow growled, unable to get the words out due to the absolute fury she felt.

The two teens looked hesitant but nodded and ran away, leaving the rangers alone with the Swan Ranger.

"You're not walking away from this alive Swan Song," Blue said with rage in his voice. "I'll make sure of it!"

"Seeing you in his insults us all!" Violet shouted.

Black remained eerily silent as he summoned his Power Ax.

"You know something Swan Song…" Bridge said as he took out his Delta Morpher with his left hand. "I never understood why villains would do some of the things that they do…But seeing you parade that suit around as a trophy and taunting his loved ones with it has sickened me to a level I never thought possible…"

"What is this? The normally goofy SPD Green Ranger serious?" Swan Ranger laughed as Bridge's eyes narrowed. "I wasn't expecting to hit a nerve within you Green Ranger," Swan Ranger taunted.

"Anyone in love would be triggered by your grievous sin," Bridge responded darkly as he held his Morpher up to the side opposite side of his face. "It's why I will do all I can to help them rip you apart…SPD…Emergency…" With a flourish of green energy, SPD Green stood beside the other rangers in his S.W.A.T Mode already activated.

"Black…Green…Yellow…Violet…Blue…" Swan Ranger counted. "Five Rangers against one…What an uneven battle for you. Power Ax…" With a flourish of black and white feathers, a feather and metal fused Ax appear in his hands. "Time to show you all what an already powerful monster can do with the power of a ranger…"


[Location: Angel Grove (Southside) – The Docks
POV:
Mighty Morphin Red Ranger]

"I am the World's Final Hope," Dawnbreaker began as she reached behind her and plucked her blade from the ground. "Mighty Morphin…" Dawnbreaker pointed her blade into the air as the image of her personal Zord appeared behind her and roared in victory, the claw mark on her armor shining brightly. "Dawnbreaker!"

The blade she held in the air shined a bright light as the hilt opened up to reveal a circular orb the shined with bright white-orange light.

She then pointed the blade at the monster before her and said "And I will bring light back this world. No matter the cost."

"Dawnbreaker…What a funny name for a dead ranger!" Robogoat yelled out before he launched himself forward but Dawnbreaker didn't move from in front of Red.

'What is she doing?' Red thought as Robogoat charged towards her.

Red watched as Dawnbreaker placed her blade to the side and just as Robogoat leaped into the air, Dawnbreaker swung her blade upwards and with a flash of white and orange, Robogoat's golden armor shattered upon the first swing.

Red was in shock.

From what he saw of SPD Red and SPD Shadow's fight with the monster and his own brief battle, that armor was damn near indestructible but her weapons shattered it completely, and judging from the monster's face, he was in shock as well.

But despite his armor being destroyed, he was still left with no wounds as he flew back and crashed against a large amount of crates. "How pathetic," Red heard Dawnbreaker say as she held up her blade. "Looks like the sword form of Edge of Dawn was able to do it…"

Sword form?

Did that mean there were other forms of the weapon?

"Time to end it," Dawnbreaker said and without warning, her blade split apart along with the hilt of her personal sword. Red watched as the orange and white light that had been trapped within the orb shot out past the metal of the blade and then stopped in its own blade. "Edge of Dawn: Great Sword Mode."

Robogoat stood from the destroyed crates, looked down at his now bare chest and hissed. "You think ruining my armor is going to st-" He was cruelly interrupted as Dawnbreaker appeared before him and with no hesitation, Edge of Dawn sliced through the monster from groin to the head.

"-op…me…" the monster finished before the orange and white energy burned the two halves of the monster away, leaving ash flowing through the wind. Red was shocked at not only how quick it was but by how brutal the death was as well…But a part of him was also impressed.

Red slowly rose to his feet but without warning, she turned around and pointed Edge of Dawn at him. "What in the hell are you doing here?" She asked with a cold tone in her voice.

Red summoned his Power Sword and answered, "The SPD Rangers needed my help. I accepted it."

"What an absolute fool," Dawnbreaker replied.

Red smirked a bit at that.

Zack was always the reckless one but he could also be reckless when given the chance. He knew that was a terrible thing to be proud of but high risk always equaled high reward and both he and Zack knew that.

"I can be sometimes," Red replied cheekily before he turned serious. "Why Ash?"

"I'm impressed you already know who I am," Dawnbreaker said.

"I would know that voice anywhere…" Red replied.

"Unfortunate," Dawnbreaker replied.

"You came from the future like the SPD Rangers did…Don't try to deny it because there is no reason why there are two Ashleys in this world that look and sound alike…" Red said as he kept his eyes locked on her. "You took Goldar from his death and now you saved my life…Why?"

"I told you that day…All that I do is to secure a better future," Dawnbreaker replied.

"A better future…" Red repeated. "And yet you attacked me with my back turned…I was so close to killing Goldar! I was so close to stopping this war with Rita and saving the world and you stopped me!"

"I stopped you from making a mistake…" Dawnbreaker calmly revealed.

"And what was that mistake?!" Red asked her. "I need to know…"

Dawnbreaker lowered her head before she replied "Killing Goldar would ha-"

"Red!" A familiar voice shouted from his left.

Red turned his head to see Pink, SPD Red, and SPD Pink running towards him from the left. The three rangers skidded to a stop beside him, with Pink skidding in front of him with her Power Bow out and already pointed at Dawnbreaker. "You…" Dawnbreaker said, her voice barely a growl.

"I've never seen this ranger before," SPD Red said with alarm.

"Neither have I," SPD Pink said with equal surprise.

"Pink…Amp down, she was the one that saved me," Red said, immediately noticing the tense body language his friend had.

Pink let out a laugh of anger and said, "That's the only reason I didn't put an arrow through her the moment I saw her…"

"W-What?" Red stammered out.

"That day at the stadium…I saw your reflection in the glass before you shot me down," Pink said with an angered tone. "At first, I thought I had imagined it but looking at you now…I know it was you."

"Is this true?!" Red shouted at the ranger.

"It is," Dawnbreaker replied, her head still pointed at Red. "That was a warning shot compared to the hell she has coming…"

"What the hell did I ever do to you?!" Pink exclaimed as she notched her bow, causing a pink energy arrow to appear.

Dawnbreaker slowly turned her attention to Pink and pointed Edge of Dawn at the ranger. "You have no right to ever ask that…" Dawnbreaker hissed out, which caused Red to be taken aback.

She was calm, almost cold when they first talked but now there was a anger in her voice that reminded him of Trini when she was pissed at Zack so long ago…

"I have to go back and make sure I get Rita right where I want her and when do, rest assured Ranger Slayer that I will finish what I started back at the stadium," Dawnbreaker said before she transported away with a flash of orange and white light.

"D-Did she just call you Ranger Slayer?" SPD Red asked as she looked at Pink.

"I knew it…" SPD Pink whispered.

"Ranger Slayer…" Red whispered before he looked to Pink. "Why did she call you that?"

"I-I don't know…" Pink whispered with confusion.

"We'll figure it out later," Red said. "We need to get to your teammates and help them out."

It was then Red saw Pink's posture go ridged. Without warning, Pink swiftly turned around and landed a hard smack to Red's face, which sent him to the ground hard.

"Whoa! What the hell are you doing?!" SPD Red shouted as SPD Pink immediately aimed her Delta Enforcer at the ranger.

"You idiotic moron!" Pink exclaimed. "Why in the hell did you come out here when you were wounded like this?!"

SPD Red looked to SPD Pink and gently lowered her weapon as Pink fell to her knees in front of the rising Red. "Jeez…that hurt," Red said only to feel Pink's arms around him in a tight hug.

"Kim…" Red whispered.

"You idiot…" Pink whispered as she tightened her hold on him. "Fucking idiot…Can't you ever not be so reckless?! First that stupid stunt with Goldar and now this? You could have been killed!"

"I had it under control," Red said.

Pink pulled away and motioned to his suit as she yelled, "This is under control?!"

"They needed my help…" Red insisted. "You and the others were in the tanks and Zordon chose me to go help Jack and Cruger…"

"Idiot…" Pink murmured. "The minute we get back to the Command Center, you will go back in that tank. Understood?"

"Fine…Fine…" Red replied with a sigh. "You done?"

"Far from it…" Pink said. "But I'll let Ashley take over tearing you a new one."

'She somewhat did already,' Red thought wryly before he said, "I'll be careful next time."

"Good…" Pink said.

"I gotta say...This feels weird to watch," SPD Red said to his partner.

"Well hopefully you don't do anything stupid for me to snap on you like she did," SPD Pink said with a teasing tone before she looked down at the pair on the ground. "Well, are you two done with this? I don't know how much time we have before the others finish their battle."

"Because…" SPD Pink began but SPD Red suddenly grabbed her shoulder and shook his head. SPD Pink tilted her head in confusion but shrugged. Red was confused as well but then SPD Red looked to him and despite the helmets, Red seemed to pick up on the message Jack was trying to convey.

"Later…"

Red nodded slowly and then said, "Alright."

SPD Pink and Pink looked at each other and then back to the Reds before Pink stood up and held out a hand to Red. Red took the hand as Pink said, "We should get back to the others and then find the rest of our teams. There is no telling what they are going through…"


[Location: Angel Grove (Westside) – Ruins of Downtown
POV: General]

"So…Any plans?" SPD Green asked.

"Violet and Yellow will take the lead and engage in combat. You and Black will provide cover fire and I will be the heavy hitter," Blue immediately answered.

"Question…Why do you guys call yourselves by your colors?" SPD Green asked.

"We never know who is listening so it's a way to keep our identities a secret," Violet explained.

"It's so funny teaming up with you guys. Our identities in SPD are already well known since we police the entire galaxy. With this in mind, you guys can call me SPD Green then," SPD Green said with a happy tone.

"Got it…Let's get to work," Yellow said before she and Violet rushed Swan Ranger. Swan Ranger chuckled and immediately kicked Yellow hard in the chest then twirled his ax and blocked three swings of Violet's Whip sword.

At the fourth swipe, Swan Ranger smacked Violet's sword to the right with his ax and slashed at her chest, which sent her stumbling backward only to thrust her hand forward, causing her sword to splinter and extend towards him.

Swan Ranger exploded into feathers to avoid the attack before the feathers flew behind Violet and kicked her in the head, which sent her soaring.

He landed on the ground and turned around and twirled his ax in front of him to block each of Yellow's stabs with her Power Daggers and when she leapt up to stab his head, he dashed to avoid it.

Yellow growled as she hit the ground and rushed him again and lunged her arm to try and stab his side but he caught her wrist with his free hand before he blocked a stab to his head with his ax. "Come on Trini," Swan Song said, mimicking Black's voice. "You need to keep up."

"I will kill you…" Yellow hissed out.

"So prone to anger Trinity," Swan Ranger taunted before he pushed the blades away and slashed at her chest twice, causing sparks to fly from her body. He then kicked her away towards Blue, who caught her. "This is all too easy!" He then released a hail of steel feathers toward SPD Green and Black, who rolled to the left and right respectively to avoid the feathers.

The two rose from their hiding spots and began to fire toward Swan Ranger, who used his two wings to block the shots.

With the orbs of energy still pressed against his wings, Swan Ranger twisted his body 360 degrees and launched the orbs back to the two rangers, which caused them both to fly backward as sparks flew from their bodies.

Violet skidded towards Swan Ranger on her knees then leaped into the air and landed a punch to the ranger's head. Swan Ranger caught it but was unprepared for Violet's blade blaster to blast him in the stomach three times.

Swan Ranger swung her away by the first but without warning, Blue slid on his knees behind Swan Ranger and wrapped his arms around his waist and with a shout, he delivered a brutal German suplex. Blue rolled over Swan Ranger's body before he lifted it off the ground and with a yell, he launched Swan Ranger through the wall and out into the street. Swan Ranger allowed himself to fly backward before he sharply ended his flight by sticking out his wings.

He placed his feet on the ground just as Blue launched himself at him and with his right arm stretched out, black and white feathers from his wings shot out and launched themselves at Blue, striking the ranger repeatedly.

With sparks flying from his body, Blue landed on his back before he flipped to his feet, only to see Swan Song in front of him with his ax in his hands. Blue rolled to the left to avoid the swing of the ax, grabbed Swan Ranger's head and rammed his knee into the side as hard as he could, cracking the helmet. Blue went to deliver another strike but Swan Ranger blocked the knee and pushed it away before he grabbed Blue's Blade Blaster and fired it twice in the chest, which sent Blue staggering back from each shot taken at him.

At the third shot, Blue rolled to the left and tackled Swan Ranger off his feet and towards an ash-covered car at top speed before he crashed through it, causing a massive explosion that sent Blue soaring backward and crashing to the ground.

"Blue, are you okay?" Violet asked as she helped the ranger to his feet while SPD Green, Black, and Yellow rushed to surround them.

"That hurt but I shall survive," Blue replied as he held a hand to his still-smoking chest.

"You rangers are outmatched," Swan Ranger taunted as he walked through the flames, his arms crossed. "I am nowhere near injured," he announced as he held out his arms. "It's going to take a lot more to take me down."

"Then allow me to introduce myself," A new voice said. Without warning, Blue felt someone jump off his shoulder and the rangers watched as a slightly older woman came into view to give a flying kick to Swan Ranger.

Swan Ranger lifted his arms, blocked the kick with his forearms and shouted,"What is this?!"

He pushed the woman from his forearms and she flew backward and landed in front of the ranger group. The woman stood up and looked to the group and instantly, the group of rangers recognized her.

"You're the woman that took Jason from the restaurant the other night. What the hell are you doing here?" Black asked, not letting out that he was the woman from the brief glimpse of the future he saw a while back.

"This isn't just any woman Black," Blue said. "This is Grace Sterling…The CEO and Creator of Promethea…"

"Y-You're Grace Walker?" SPD Green asked with shock in his voice. "Wow…The past is a wild place…"

"Oh fuck…" Violet said. "Why are you here?"

The well-dressed woman turned her head and explained, "I was in a meeting when I heard the news of a ranger battle. Figured I'd come and assist."

"Assist?" Black asked. "How?"

"I see my dear successor neglected to tell you all. It's better to show than tell," Grace said as she pulled up her sleeve and revealed the cross-changer that sat on her wrist. "Take Flight: Red Hawk!"

Grace then lifted her right wrist and pressed the bird emblem with her index and middle finger. The wings on the bird emblem fell to the side and with a burst of red sparkling energy, Red Hawk stood in Grace's place.

"What the hell?!" The five rangers shouted.

"I am the Original Red Ranger of both Promethea and Zordon," Red Hawk said as she pointed a thumb at herself as the rangers behind her gasped in shock "And seeing you make a mockery of my friend and my successor's mother's suit sickens me to my core..."

"Wait, Jason's mom?" Black asked as he exchanged a look with Yellow.

"Zordon has a lot of explaining to do…" Yellow replied.

"How marvelous!" Swan Ranger said. "It seems this suit has more meaning after all. Then Mighty Red Hawk, come and fight me!"

"With pleasure!" Red Hawk said as she held out her hand and with a flash of light, a long sword appeared in it. She gripped the hilt and dashed forward towards Swan Ranger, the tip of the sword skidding against the ground, causing red sparks to follow it.

With a yell, she swung at an upward angle but Swan Ranger blocked it with his ax but to his surprise, the blade on the ax cracked. Swan Ranger forced the blade away from his weapon and attempted to slash at her chest but Red Swan smacked the ax away with her blade and sliced at his chest twice, causing sparks to fly from his body.

Swan Ranger took a step back and swung his ax repeatedly at the newcomer but Red Hawk avoided each swing of the ax at a quick pace before she smacked the ax away again and leaped up to knee the villain in the head. Swan Ranger flew backward and held out his hand forward, causing a hail of feathers to fly toward the ranger. Red Hawk dismissed her blade then pulled out her sidearm fell to the ground to avoid the feathers and fired at the mockery,

The bolts of red energy slammed into Swan Ranger's chest repeatedly, each one causing him to stagger backward.

Red Hawk rolled backward onto her feet and re-summoned her blade before she dashed forward.

Swan Ranger swung his ax but Red Hawk jumped the monster then landed behind him and slashed his back, causing sparks to fly from his body as well as making him stagger forward right towards a double knee strike to the face by Yellow and Violet. Swan Ranger fell to the ground but before anything more could occur, Blue Skidded onto one knee, grabbed both of his legs, and with a shout, spun his body and launched him into the air.

Swan Ranger recovered in the air only for Black and SPD Green to appear in his vision with the Power Cannon and Delta Enforcer in their head respectively and without hesitation, the pair fired, causing several sparks to fly from his body.

Seeing the mockery begin to fall, Blue ran forward and threw himself toward Swan Ranger, where he tackled him out of the air and crashed through the roof of a bus at an angle, sending them both through it and through the side of the bus, causing them to crash onto the ground and roll to a stop.

Blue got up to his feet as Swan Ranger rose to his feet as well but Blue immediately ran forward and delivered two blows to Swan Ranger's head before he grabbed his head and smashed it down against his rising knee, cracking the helmet further while also releasing Swan Ranger's head, allowing for the monster's head to whip up.

Seeing the monster was dazed, Blue pivoted his body and delivered a hard hard-hitting punch, sending Swan Ranger's head through the bus. Blue grabbed the ranger by the neck and pulled his head from the hole but kept a strong grip on Swan Ranger's neck as he lifted him up into the air, turned his body and slammed the monster down into the ground, hard enough to create a small crater with the monster's body. Blue then yelled and whipped his arm forward while realizing Swan Ranger's neck, causing the monster to skid against the cement ground before he crashed into a car.

The five rangers quickly rejoined Blue as Red Hawk hopped onto the roof of the bus, aimed her sidearm at the downed monster and shouted, "Finish him!"

Black and SPD Green held up their Cannon and Enforcer while Blue, Yellow, and Violet lifted up their Blade Blasters with a shout of "Now!" From Red Hawk, the rangers fired at the downed monster, which caused another massive explosion.

"And that is how it's done," Red Hawk said as she spun her firearm and then holstered it. She then hopped down to the ground. "Good job, Rangers."

"Thanks, Ma'am!" SPD Green said with a salute.

"I've never seen you around before," Red Hawk said as she glanced at the ranger.

"I am from the future, Ma'am," SPD Green said as he rubbed the back of his helmet.

"The future…Seems we have a lot of that happening lately," Red Hawk cryptically murmured.

"Seems the past has that same issue," Black said as he looked at Red Hawk.

"I suppose so," Red Hawk said with a chuckle before she glanced at the inferno in the distance."It seems we are done here…"

"We shouldn't be so confident that we defeated that monster. He was very tough," Violet said with a nervous tone.

"He's like a fucking cockroach," Yellow hissed. "Just refuses to die…"

It was then the fiery red flames began to turn into a dark purple.

"Uh oh," Black said.

"I could say the same about you rangers!" A furious voice shouted and without warning, a dark purple Swan Ranger exploded from the fire, clotheslined both Black and Red Hawk, and flew past the other rangers.

"Red Hawk! Black!" The rangers shouted.

Swan Ranger flew towards the remains of a building, which caused two large craters against it before Swan Ranger flew into the air. With a shout, he held out his right hand and swiped it to the left, and five dark purple feathers shot down towards the building where the spot the feathers landed exploded into purple flames, causing the building to collapse.

"No!" The rangers screamed in horror.

Swan Ranger then turned around, spread his now dark purple wings and shouted, "Now die!" Dozens upon dozens of dark purple feathers darted down towards the four rangers.

"Scatter!" SPD Green exclaimed as he rolled to the left, prompting the other rangers to take over as the feathers began to explode the moment they landed on anything. Swan Ranger let out a crazed laugh as the purple flames lit up the night sky.

When the flames died out, the anger immediately set in.

In the areas where hid, there were faint light purple orbs around them, and in the middle of the street stood Morgana, an orb around her as well as she panted heavily. Swan Ranger lowered down to the ground and glared at the woman hatefully.

"How?" He hissed out darkly.

"H-Heh…You forgot who was Grumm's right-hand man…" Morgana panted out, her eyes glowing purple.

"Morgana! What are you doing here?" SPD Green shouted in shock.

"This…I-Ingrate nearly killed Sam!" Morgana shouted.

"Sam?" Blue asked.

SPD Green lowered his head in horror before he looked back at Morgana and shouted, "What do you mean nearly?!"

"There is no time to explain…Just know that I am here to help!" Morgana exclaimed.

"Help?" Swan Ranger asked. "You are barely clinging to life as is traitor…"

"You tried to kill Sam and I…Because of that, I refuse to let you walk out of here alive!" Morgana yelled. "Even if it costs mine…"

"Then let's begin!" Swan Ranger yelled as he dove down and slammed into Morgana's body where they both crashed through three cars before Swan Ranger skidded to a stop, which caused Morgana's body to continue flying forward before she crashed into a final car.

Morgana fell to one knee and gritted her teeth as her battle helmet appeared around her head and with a leap to the left, she avoided the hail of glowing purple feathers, which caused the car behind her to explode.

She landed and then rolled to the right to avoid another stream of feathers before she formed a purple orb of energy in her hand and fired it towards Swan Ranger, who used his upper right wing to bat it away, causing an explosion in the sky.

Morgana charged purple energy into the blades that were attached to her forearms and swung them rapidly, sending multiple arcs of energy at Swan Ranger, who used his wings to shield him from the attacks before batting them away sharply only to block a roundhouse from Morgana.

He then grabbed her leg and with a twist, he threw her as hard as he could. Morgana recovered in the air and stabbed her forearm blades against the ground to slow her flight then landed on her feet only for Swan Ranger to collide with her and fly at an angle, sending both of them through the building beside her.

Once in the building, Morgana slammed her feet against the floor, causing her feet to sink into the carpeting, and with gritted teeth, she twisted her body and launched Swan Song away from her, where he immediately recovered and shot a steam of feathers at her.

Morgana hissed and lifted her leg up and slammed it against the floor, sending her crashing through it and landed on the first floor of the building only to hear an explosion above her. Morgana rushed out of the building as Swan Ranger flew out of the roof and hovered in the air before he dove down and summoned his ax.

Morgana dashed backward to avoid being cleaved in half but Swan Ranger flew towards and managed to nail her in the side with the ax, causing red sparks to fly from her body. Morgana turned around and grabbed his leg before he could get far, pulled him backward, and ran her blade up his back, causing sparks to fly.

She was then smacked with all four of the Swan Ranger's wings, which sent her darting backward and crashing into the remains of the building she was in moments before. She began to fall but without warning, Swan Ranger flew forward and landed a solid blow to her stomach, knocking the air from her lungs before he turned his body kicked her in the head, sending Morgana's body skidding against the rubble as she flew to the right before she broke away from the building then crashed into another building, where she rolled against the ground and groaned in pain.

Morgana tried to pick herself up off the ground, her battle suit torn in several places, and the right side of her helmet was broken, revealing her bloody face, but she fell back down.

"It seems that this was what Grumm's second-in-command could scrounge up. How shameful to his army…" Swan Ranger taunted.

Morgana let out a harsh scoff.

She had used the majority of her power in healing Sam before he could die and using it to shield the other rangers from that barrage. She was barely able to stand due to the amount of damage she had incurred.

She was going to die here.

Morgana punched the ground and pushed against her fist to get her off then pushed herself onto her feet and once she fully stood up, her vision blurry, she saw Swan Ranger in front of the large hole she had created.

Morgana gave a defiant smirk as she said "You can strike me down but believe me when I say this…I'll be seeing you again very shortly."

"Confident. Even in the face of death," Swan Ranger said with a scathing tone as he held up his right hand, only pointing his index and middle finger at her. "Despite your allegiance, it seems you and those rangers have something in common. False Bravado in the face of death."

Just as his fingertips began to glow, a streak of yellow, blue, pink, and red bolts of energy collided with his body, causing him to crash through the wall window that sat beside them.

As Swan Ranger skidded across the ground, the four streaks of energy began to fade, revealing SPD Red, SPD Pink, SPD Yellow, and SPD Blue in their S.W.A.T armor, all of them skidding to a stop as electricity in their respective colors streaked against their bodies.

Swan Ranger looked up and laughed as the four SPD Rangers stood across from him. "More rangers to kill," he hissed out. It was then he noticed that on the ground, his shadow was starting to grow.

He looked up and saw a pink, red, gray, and pale orange streak of light heading straight towards him.

Swan Ranger lifted his wings and felt his feet sink into the ground as Red, Pink, SPD Shadow, and SPD Cat's forms materialized, Pink and SPD Cat's feet were against the pair of wings on his left while Red and SPD Shadow's swords were cutting into the wings on the right. With a shout, he forced the four rangers off of his wings and each pair of rangers landed at his sides.

"How interesting…" Swan Ranger said as he looked around.

"Well would you look at that," SPD Blue said with a taunting tone. "You're surrounded. You have nowhere to run now, Swan Song."

"Swan Song? Jesus!" Pink exclaimed. "Can any of you assholes just stay dead?!"

Red noticed Swan Ranger's ranger suit and stiffened before a look of rage filled his veins. "Don't worry Pink," Red said with a dark edge to his voice. "He'll stay dead after this."

Swan Ranger laughed but to all of the rangers, they could hear the nervousness in his voice. "You talk a big game, ranger, but you look all but near death with that suit!"

"And you're going to be dead for wearing that one," Pink replied angrily.

"You're all talk!" Swan Ranger yelled as he looked around him. "Past or Future! Living or Dead! One or Many! I will not stop until I kill all of you!" Swan Ranger screamed as he spread his wings to their limit and launched a stream of feathers toward all of the rangers. The rangers immediately scattered to avoid the feathers, which exploded on impact. Swan Ranger stopped his feathers and panted only to see Red charging towards him from his right while SPD Shadow ran towards him from the left.

Swan Ranger summoned his ax and swung at Red, who smacked the blade away with his own and struck his chest while SPD Shadow sliced at Swan Ranger's side, causing sparks to fly from both impact points on his body.

He used his wing to smack SPD Shadow away before he kicked Red in the chest, which sent Red skidding backward into a car. Swan Ranger pointed his index and middle fingers at SPD Shadow and fired black and white beams of energy.

SPD Shadow used his Shadow Saber to deflect each beam as he ran forward to Swan Ranger and with a leap in the air, SPD Shadow shouted "Shadow Saber: Shadow Strike!" The Shadow Saber's blade shined a brilliant white light as he swung the blade down towards Swan Ranger.

Meanwhile, Red gathered energy into his blade, causing the steel to flash red, and with a shout, he rushed forward from behind Swan Ranger. Just as the two rangers were about to strike Swan Ranger, the monster exploded into feathers at the moment of the strike, causing Red's sword to collide with SPD Shadow's, which caused a shockwave.

Black and white feathers flowed around the two rangers only for them to glow a bright purple and with seconds to spare, SPD Shadow and Red dashed backward to avoid the exploding feathers. Swan Ranger appeared beside SPD Shadow and aimed a punch at SPD Shadow's head. SPD Shadow blocked the punch with the flat side of his saber before he pushed the fist away and slashed at the monster's chest three times before Red's Power Sword sliced through Swan Ranger's side, causing sparks to fly.

Swan Ranger let out a shout and twisted his body to block the quick sword strikes from the two rangers before he shouted, causing a shockwave of energy that sent SPD Shadow and Red flying away from him, with SPD Shadow crashing through a building and Red slamming into a car back first.

Swan Ranger panted and held his chest just as Pink leaped onto the hood of a car Red slammed into with her Power Bow in hand and fired three energy arrows at Swan Ranger, who was struck in the chest by each one, causing sparks to fly while SPD Pink and Yellow skidded in front of him on their knees and pressed their Delta Enforcers at his chest and shouted, "Fire!"

With a squeeze of the trigger, a massive explosion, Swan Ranger flew backward, his body smoking from the blasters but when he recovered, he batted his wings and kept flying back away from the group.

Swan Ranger flew backward and then batted his wings to keep him flying away but SPD Red and SPD Blue ran beside him and fired their Delta Enforcers, which caused his body to be pelted by energy bullets from both sides before SPD Kat jumped into the air and delivered a kick to his face, sending the monster crashing into the ground.

Swan Ranger smacked his wings against the ground, the force sending him to his feet where SPD Kat appeared and began to rain down clawed attacks, each one striking at his chest and face, causing sparks to fly against her suit before he caught her right hand.

She quickly leaped up over her arm and delivered a dropkick to his face, which caused Swan Ranger to release her hand and stagger backward. "Surprise!" He heard two voices shout before he got kicked hard in the back by SPD Green and Yellow, which made him stagger forward right into a knee strike from SPD Kat.

Swan Ranger fell to the ground but spun his body and used his wings to sweep SPD Cat, SPD Green, and Yellow off their feet but as he rose up, he was taken off of his feet by Blue and lifted into the air, where Violet's knees crashed against his face, which then caused Blue to slam him into the ground hard while Violet's knees crushed his head against the ground.

Violet rolled off while Blue grabbed Swan Ranger's legs and said "Let's go for a ride," and began to spin Swan Ranger around before he launched him up into the air.

Swan Ranger recovered with a shout only to feel the feet of SPD Red and SPD Blue colliding against his back, which sent him sailing towards the ground where he crashed hard.

Swan Ranger smacked his wings against the ground again to get himself onto his feet and used his wings to block Blue and Violet's high kicks before he forced them back and hopped up to kick them both in the chest, sending them flying backward.

He then turned around only to be struck in the chest by Yellow's Power Daggers and SPD Kat's claws, causing sparks to fly from his body, sending him staggering backward. Seeing this, SPD Green, SPD Red, and SPD Blue fired shot after shot at his unprotected back, causing a massive amount of sparks to explode from his body.

From the amount of pain he had suffered, the Black Power Coin he was drawing power from was quickly wearing out. He had to get them off of him. Drawing the rest of the power the coin had, Swan Ranger wailed as a shockwave of energy exploded from his body, sending all of the rangers flying away from him.

SPD Green and Blue crashed into the building to the left where they demorphed into Bridge and Sky, both of them unconscious.

SPD Red crashed through the brick wall of a bakery and rolled against the ground.

SPD Kat and Yellow soared backward, passing the other rangers before they each collided with a car, both of them falling to the ground and demorphing to Dr. Manx and Trini but as the former fell, a black Delta-Morpher with the gold lettering of "SPD" skidded out from Dr. Manx's pocket but the Delta-Morpher stopped as collided with a foot.

Morgana leaned down with difficulty due to her wounds, grabbed the Morpher and looked to the distance.

She had to catch up.


[Location: Rita's Palace
POV:
Rita Repulsa]

Rita sat on her throne and watched as Swan Ranger fell to one knee as black energy flowed from his body and with a brief flash of light, Swan Ranger demorphed into Swan Song.

She knew that the monster had the Black Ranger's Power Coin within him due to knowing the familiar power that flowed from a Power Coin.

Because Swan Song did not reveal this fact to her, Rita didn't care at all for the monster at this point, what did interest her was the black power coin he had. If the rangers defeated him, they would have two black power coins and she didn't want that.

She needed to get her hands on that coin the monster possessed.

Having two coins was better than one.

Speaking of the other coin…

"Healtress!" Rita called out.

With a flash of white and red, Healtress appeared before Rita and gave a curtsy before her high-pitched, southern belle voice asked, "Yes Empress?"

"What is the progress of our two esteemed guests?" Rita asked.

"They are at 70% Empress," Healtress replied.

Rita shut her eyes in thought. Chronella still hasn't returned from her final mission and her overall plan was still in progress…She needed just a little more time. She then opened her eyes, glanced at Swan Ranger and smirked.

It was time for her to interfere…

With a glow of the ruby gem at the end of her staff, her eyes turned a bright red as she whispered "Netsil: Swan Song…"

After a few seconds of silence, she said "It looks like you are in dire need of assistance."

In the globe before her, Swan Song's head snapped up. "Empress Rita?!" Swan Song cried out within Rita's head. "Yes, I do require assistance. The power I had has temporarily run out!"

Rita smirked.

Still lying to her…

Pity.

"I can help you," Rita told him. "I can give you the power you seek to defeat those rangers…However, I require a tribute to grant this power to you…"

Swan Song's head lowered to the globe before he replied in Rita's head, "A-A tribute?"

"Equivalent Exchange…Power for Power…" Rita replied.

Swan Song's head lowered for a moment, as he was weighing his options before he said, "I…I haven't been truthful Lady Rita…As you know, I come from a future where the Power Rangers…The ones you face and I fought…Had perished. As a tribute, I was given the Black Power Coin…It has no power at this moment but I can give this to you as tribute!"

Rita smirked.

"Yes…That will work handsomely…" Rita replied.

In her viewing globe, Swan Song stabbed his hand into his chest, causing black electricity to crackle against his arm and when he pulled it out, the black electricity streaked against his arm. He held it out to the air.

Rita smirked and lifted up her staff and with a flash of red light, the coin disappeared from his hand and appeared hovering before her.

She grabbed the coin and winced as black electricity crackled in her palm. "The tribute has been given…"

She lifted her staff and said, "Give my monster power!" The ruby glowed a bright red before a bolt of energy flew from it and into the ceiling, going to its intended target.

"The power is now yours," Rita told him before she cut the connection, her eyes returning to normal.

She glanced at the coin in her hand and let her smirk widen. "Goodbye Swan Song…You were so very useful…Up until your final breath…" She said to herself.

He was going to die on this day. If not by the rangers' hands then by the massive amount of power she had just given him.
