In the heart of the Deboss fortress, Cinder approaches Ruin from behind. "Would you perhaps know where to find Candelira, and Luckerio? I have a plan to gain energy for all three of the pillars, and I require their assistance."
"They have gone into town for observation." Ruin says.
Cinder growls quietly, and walks over to the Joy pillar, "Then I'll do it myself..."
D swats her hand away. "Careful. Mobians cannot touch the pillars."
Cinder balls her fist until her knuckles crack, and in old Echidna speech she curses. Then she turns to Ruin, "Where in town did Candelira go?"
"If it is an inconvenience, then I can create your monster." Ruin states. "But she and Luckerio went to study Mobian behavior in a place called the... movie theater."
Cinder sighs, "Have you heard the tale of the Pied Piper?"
"No." Ruin shakes his head.
"A town overrun by rodents hires a shady piper to be rid of the rats. He plays his melody and lures all the rats out of the city and walks them to their demise." D states, leaning against the wall and crossing his arms. "The villagers then decide to break their deal, which angers the piper. The piper then plays his pipe, and lures out all the children of the town and lead them all away, and the children as well as the piper are never seen again."
Ruin strokes his chin thoughtfully. "Very interesting."
Cinder nods, "My plan follows the same principal. I need a Joy monster to lure a good fraction of the populace out of the city to a place they can be trapped in a happy illusion. Meanwhile I'll take giant monsters, and the Megazord to attack the city. The people will think the Power Rangers have turned against them, breeding sorrow, and rage while we leech happiness from this drawn away."
"How evil." D nods approvingly.
"Very well. I will create it." Ruin touches the podium.
Cinder looks to D, "My Grandsire used to tell stories after meals. The Pied Piper was a favorite... At any rate, will you be joining me for this mission?"
"I shall. I am curious as to see how your plan will work." D says with a nod.
Cinder nods again, "I shall find Dragold, and Woemore, they'll want front-row seats."
D nods and walks. "I'll get my weapons in case of conflict."
...
The Rangers minus Shadow walk around, fondling their new old Morphers.
Trent says, "So now we have more power... If only we could go on the offensive."
"Well, we'll get our chance." Conner says seriously.
Ethan sighs, and checks his watch, "Well, until they show up I'm headed to Twinkle Park, there's a concert at noon. Anyone wanna join me?"
"A concert?" Kira perks up.
Ethan nods, "Yeah, Crush 40."
"Count me in," Conner smiles.
"Let's go, then!" Kira smiles.
Trent sighs, "You guys to ahead, I'll stay with Shadow."
Kira pouts a little. "Okay, see you later then."
Trent waves with a smile as they walk off.
They walk into the carnival and look around. "So where's the concert hall?" Kira asks.
Ethan checks a directory, "...That way!" He starts walking to the right.
Kira and Conner follow him, and Kira pauses. "Hey... there's Lucy!"
Ethan turns, "Huh? Where?"
Kira points to where Lucy is enjoying some cotton candy.
Conner laughs, "Wow... Wait, if she's here then-" He breaks off as Cinder joins Lucy, kneeling to give her a balloon animal.
Kira frowns. "We should be nice to her. She doesn't know we know who she is."
"No shit," Ethan says. "If she knew we knew she'd wipe the floor with us right here."
Conner quickly puts his morpher in his pocket, "She thinks we're powerless."
Kira makes hers go into communications mode as the Dino Gem. "Let's go say hi."
They nod, and put on smiles as they walk over. Lucy gasps, and jumps into Kira's arms, "Big sis!"
Cinder looks up at them, and stands, "Well, we certainly keep meeting up a lot nowadays."
"Almost like we're supposed to be together." Ethan smiles.
"So how are you? I haven't seen you since I ran out yesterday. Sorry about that, by the way." Kira apologizes.
Cinder nods, "It's fine, I understand you have other responsibilities." She glances at her hip, and blinks at the lack of a revolver there.
"Not anymore. Just a normal girl now." She smiles gently. She hugs Lucy with a giggle.
Cinder's smile fades behind her mask, "I see... Then let us all pray that someone can step up to take your place. The world will always need people like you."
"Don't I know it? Shadow is still working hard, though." She smiles and sets Lucy down. "He's a fighter."
Cinder nods, "Shadow the Hedgehog... A fine warrior, well-deserving of his fame."
"He's gonna fight hard for this world." Kira smiles.
"I wouldn't expect any less," Cinder says as she picks up Lucy. "There will always be a calling for those who defend those who cannot defend themselves."
"Yeah. Well, we're gonna miss our concert..." Ethan says, glancing at his watch.
Cinder nods, and Lucy perks, "Can I come?! I loves music!!!"
Kira smiles. "If it's okay with Cinder."
Cinder nods, and passes her to Kira, "Be safe."
"We will." Kira hugs Lucy before turning to Conner and Ethan. "Let's go!"
Cinder watches them go, and smiles as she leaves the park. As soon as she's out in a dark alleyway she drops her illusion, showing her Ranger Form.
"There you are." D lands next to her. "Your signal dropped off for an hour, I thought you were assassinated." He states.
"Have a little more faith," she replies. "I was acting as bait to lure our former enemies into the net. It appears they have given up their morphers..."
"That may be true. But they're still deadly, and in contact with the Ultimate Lifeform." He states.
Cinder nods, "I expect Shadow to oppose us, but without his morphing powers he cannot stand up to us for long."
"Good. A final bout with a worthy opponent." D states, gripping his sworderang tighter.
She nods, "Indeed. Are those fodder minions of Ruin's in position?"
He nods. "Yes. Ready to begin?"
She draws her weapon off her back, and loads in the ammo clip, "Ready. Tell Woemore to have our monster cast the net, and I'll check on Dragold."
He nods and hops onto the roof before hopping away.
Cinder leaps across rooftops to Dragold, "We're all set. You ready with your Batteries?"
He nods. "This will be great!" He smirks.
"I don't think I've ever seen you smile this much Dragold... I find it creepy."
"Good. I think I'll smile more." He smirks even more.
She then punches him across the face.
"Grah?!" He stumbles back before roaring, "What was that for?!"
"For deliberately trying my patience," she replies. "Let me save you the trouble, I don't have much patience to begin with."
He huffs. "I meant I'll smile to scare the Mobians. But if I irritate you, I think that's a great bonus!" He punches her back. "And do not strike me."
"Why you..." She grabs his chest plate, and roughly presses their foreheads together. "...We will settle this after this mission."
"Fine." He hisses, roughly shoving her away.
Cinder ignores him, instead turning her attention to the city, "Then let us begin..."
...
The four walk out of the concert.
"That was pretty good. Good thing I brought earplugs." Conner smiles, pulling out the before-mentioned items.
Lucy leans over in Kira's arm, and starts swatting at him adorably.
Conner smiles at her. "What is it?"
"Big dummy, you can't hear the musics with earplugs in!"
"You could damage your eardrums if you listen to a concert without them." He smiles.
She blows a raspberry at him, and then hugs Kira around the neck.
Kira giggles as Conner scowls.
"So Lucy... how long ago did Cinder come back when we saw you earlier?" Ethan asks.
Lucy tilts her head, "A few days, she wasn't gone long. Sometimes Sifu is gone for months!" She purrs, "I love my Sifu..."
"Well yeah, but... did she just come back and decide to take you to the carnival?" Ethan asks.
She nods, "Yup! She saw it on the way into town, and since I was good while she was gone she decided to bring me here!"
"Hm... okay." Ethan nods.
Lucy suddenly gasps, "Kitty!" She jumps out of Kira's arms, and takes off.
"Hey, wait!" Kira runs after her.
Ethan and Conner jolt and run after the girls. "Hey! Wait up!"
Lucy turns a corner... And vanishes by the time they catch up.
"Chaos-damned ninjas," Conner sighs.
"Guys, we need to find her!" Kira frowns. "Cinder was here, she could plan on attacking us!"
"Or she could be just bringing her little girl on a trip to the amusement park," Ethan says, and then his eyes pop open. "Holy... Conner, is that babe checking me out? That one over there dressed like Daisy Duke?"
"Who?" He blinks and looks in the direction Ethan points.
"That red-head over there! Dude, forget it, I'm gonna go say hi!"
As he runs off a guitar signed by Jimi Hendrix catches the light in a shop window.
Conner pauses. "Shouldn't that be in a museum?"
Kira shoves past him with a huge smile, "Who cares?!" She runs into the shop.
A soccerball rolls up against Conner's ankle. A kid calls, "Hey mister! Can you pass it back?"
"Sure, kiddo!" He smiles and kicks it back.
The kid jumps, and grabs it, "Thanks! Hey, you wanna play with us?"
"I'd love to, but my friends are acting..." He pauses when he sees a group of of women in sexy soccer outfits walk up to the kid.
"Is this handsome man playing?" One of them with a bigger bust asks.
"...Sure, I'll play!" He runs up with a smile.
...
Trent walks with Shadow down the street, "So... Any ideas?"
"Plenty of ideas. I don't know what you're talking about in particular, though." He states.
"Should we go to her dojo, take the fight to her now?"
"No. She wouldn't go there and expose her students. Even if we did, it would be us versus ten or so trained women. Not a good idea." Shadow states. "She'll show up eventually."
"With the advantage," Trent points out.
Suddenly a massive minion beast erupts upwards a few streets down to their left, and two more appear behind them. Far up in front of them the Megazord almost strolls in their general direction.
"I rest my case," Trent deadpans.
"Let's not forget the civilian powers these Dino Gems have granted us." Shadow states, pulling out his Brachio Staff and turning invisible.
Trent nods, summoning his feather-sword from midair, and blending in with the walls.
Shadow takes out an entire squadron of Parameeshia on his own, remaining invisible.
"Eh? Where'd they go?!" Woemore yelps.
From out of nowhere a golly of arrows made from light strike the Deboss general all over.
"Ah! That stings!" Woemore stands hastily.
"I thought this would be more of a challenge." Shadow reappears, crossing his arms.
"Apparently not," Trent says as he too reappears, slashing Woemore across the chest twice, and sending him flying.
"About time you showed up." D slashes them both from behind.
Trent cries out as he's sent rolling across the ground, "AH! Who the fuck are you?!"
"I am Ferocious Knight D. But you can call me Deathryuger." D states, balancing his sworderang on his shoulder.
"Great, three rangers for Deboss now," Trent says as he stands. He twirls his feather sword in his hand, and glances at Shadow.
"Hmph. You don't impress me." Shadow takes a fighting stance.
"I will." D states, taking a swordsman stance.
"What do you say Doc?" Trent cracks his fist, and while hiding it with his sleeve he changes his morpher out of the bracelet mode. "Finally time to cut loose on these chumps?"
"I believe so." Shadow smirks.
"How pointless. Without your Zyudenchi, you have no chance of Morphing and stopping me." D states, brandishing his sword.
"That's what we want you to think." Shadow smirks more. "Ready?" He makes his Morpher appear as he whips out his key.
Trent nods, and yanks back his sleeve as he raises his morpher to his face, "I've been waiting for this. White Ranger, Dino Power!"
Shadow activates his Morpher before calling, "Dinothunder, Power Up!" He twists the key in the slot, and the familiar Dinothunder symbol slams into his chest, a white glow forming on his body. He then backflips, his costume flying onto him before his helmet appears on him. "Dino Power!"
Trent rises into the air as his armor flies at him on frozen winds. Then he spirals down into a kneeling position, and glares at Death Ranger as his helmet forms.
Almost casually Trent gets to his feet, "Bring it on." He draws his feather dagger, and extends it to sword mode.
"Impressive, you brought the Dinothunder powers back from the dead." D claps sarcastically. "You're no match for me still."
"We'll see about that." Shadow smirks, brandishing his Brachio Staff.
Trent jerks his chin at the pair, "You take the Newbie Doc, I got the Crybaby."
"With pleasure." Shadow charges at D with a roar, slashing at the evil Ranger.
D deflects it quickly, slashing Shadow's chest.
Shadow twists around the slash, slamming a foot into D's midsection.
Woemore draws his axe. "Crybaby? That stings!" He swings at Trent.
Trent grabs the shaft of the axe with his free hand, stopping it, "Oh really? You mean like this?" He slashes an X on Woemore's chest, and kicks him away.
Trent props his sword on his shoulder as Woemore gets back to his feet, "Tell me, how badly does this sting?" He suddenly blurs with super speed, slashing the Deboss as he dashes past repeatedly. He skids to a stop several meters away, making a flurry of light arrows before sending them at Woemore.
The general cries out as they strike, "AAAAAAAHHHH!"
"Hmph, cry me a river," Trent says as he checks on Shadow.
Shadow and D are locked between blocking and countering, neither side landing a hit as they concentrate.
Trent nods, "Looks like you've got things here. I'll take care of the big ones."
Shadow nods silently, giving his approval.
Trent leaps to the rooftops, "Drago Zord, Stego Zord, let's party!"
A white pterodactyl drops from the sky, and a purple stegosaurus charges into the city. The former breaks into pieces, and becomes humanoid limbs around the stegosaurus, forming a new Megazord.
Trent leaps into it, "Alright, let's go! Dino Stegazord!"
Dragold watches from a rooftop. "Do you think your Megazord can handle that?" He glances at Cinder.
"I know it can," she replies.
"You wish," Trent scoffs. "The Kyoryuger Zords may be powerful, but I have the experience."
The Megazords square off, and Trent glares, "We trusted you."
"Your mistake," she says as she charges.
"Stegazord Stinger, intercept!" Tent takes the lance the Stegazord carries, and sends it flying at her with a blast of lightning. Cider deflects it with her shield. Then jabs with her drill which Trent deflects with an arm before swinging his tail at her.
The blow connects, and sends the Megazord on it's back as monsters converge. Trent scoffs as he calls his lance back to the Megazord, utterly decimating the monsters.
Cinder gets to her feet, "It would be more impressive if I wasn't trying to operate a Megazord meant for five people to operate."
"Sounds like you've bitten off more than you can chew," Trent chuckles. "Twice in one day."
"Let's even the field, then." Dragold states, pulling out Pterathundron's battery. "Deboss In!" He throws it into the air, and a huge golden Pteradon Zord flies in, its eyes covered by a mask.
Gaburincho! Pterathundron!
The battery flies into its mouth, and it shoots lightning at the Dino Stegozord.
Trent barely keeps it on his feet, "You call two on one a fair playing field? Fine, I'm game. Dimetrozord, Anklyozord, combine!"
A blue Dimetrodon, and an orange Ankylosaurus charge from behind Trent. The Dimetrodon jumps, folding in on itself as it replaces the left arm with a new one with a massive buzz-saw on the end. The Anklyosaur replaces the right arm, using it's tail to become a drill.
"Pterathundron, Lightning Transformation!" Dragold orders, jumping into the cockpit.
The back half of the Zord disconnects before folding and becoming legs, combining on the bottom. The wings unfold and come down as arms with arm blades as a cape unfurls and a head comes up, covered by a face shield over its eyes.
"Complete! Thoraiden Megazord!" Dragold states, placing his Dino Charger into the holder.
Trent nods, "Looks tough, perfect..." He pats the console in front of him, "My Zords could use the warmup."
"We'll see." Dragold smirks, the arm blades extending forward as blade tonfas.
Trent charges forward, slashing with the spinning sawblade.
Dragons dodges under it, slashing Trent's Megazord's feet.
Trent blocks with his drill, and spins, saw arm raised to slash as he tries to sweep Dragold's legs out with his tail.
Dragons quickly shifts Thoraiden into Pterathundron, dodging the shots as he shoots lighting point blank into Trent's Megazord.
Trent is sent flying onto his back, "Agh! Dammit!"
The Stegazord stands again, and Trent glares. Suddenly bullets pepper the Stegazord, and he sees Cinder aiming Parasagun right for him, having switched to Maximum Assault mode when no one was looking.
Trent growls, "Doc, I hope you're having better luck down there!"
"Looks like your friend is in trouble." D teases. "It would be a crying shame if he died..."
"Shut up!" Shadow roars, kicking D back. "Brachio Staff, Energy Orb!" He traces the orb before firing it at D.
D blocks it, struggling to maintain his footing as he growls. He deflects it aside with a roar, but Shadow immediately follows up with a Fire Strike, blasting D into a wall. Shadow turns to Trent and says into his Morpher, "Help is on the way." He warps into the Dino Stegozord as his podium appears, and he summons the Cephalazord and Parasaur Zord, switching the arms out for those instead.
"It'd be nice to have a shield about now," Trent comments.
"Well, the Ankylozord should rest for a second. We can handle it until then." Shadow says.
Trent nods, "Okay, then we should keep-"
He's interrupted by a roar. Cinder turns to see a sleeker Tyrannosaurus Zord charging for her, and it spins it's tail like a drill as it slams it into her.
Trent jerks, and looks around, "I see the Zords, but where are...?"
Shadow frowns and looks as well. "Good question."
Tyranno chomps Gabutyra's leg, yanking it out from under him as he mauls at the Megazord. The tricera Zord shakes it's head as it slams into Dragoon from behind. From above the Ptera Zord spins beak-first at Dragold.
Cinder knocks Tyranno away long enough to get to her feet, and slashes with Veloslash which Tyranno dodges. "Dragold, we need reenforcements. Where is D, Virusun, and that ridiculous Waffle Monster?!"
Trent turns to Shadow, "We gotta get this fight out of the city before this whole city becomes a giant Warzone!"
Shadow nods. "I don't know where the others are, but Mina must have deployed the Zords. I'll form the Thundersaurus Megazord, and we'll lure them out of the city."
Trent nods, "got it!"
The three new Zords, as if having heard him, take formation as two more giant enemies arrive formed from Deboss's minions. Tyranno charges, spinning his tail as he takes a turning leap, destroying one beast with its tail as its upper body goes sideways to he legs, and his head goes onto his left side as his legs extend. Tricera Zords flips, and bashes into the other as it turns sideways, becoming the right arm. Finally the wings detach from Ptera Zord, folding into a gold mane around the Tyranno head on the megazord's chest, and the rest of it folds up into a helmet on the humanoid head on the shoulders.
Shadow warps into the newly combined Megazord, calling, "Thundersaurus Megazord!"
He smirks and makes the Tricera hand and drill hand form a staff to give the Megazord's hands. "Hey Dragold!" He gives the lion monster the finger before making his Zord run away.
"Why you-" Dragold roars, flying after him.
Cinder smiles, "Ah... Very well then." Then she chases with her own Megazord.
Trent watches curiously, "She's not one to turn down a one-on-one fight... And neither is she dumb enough to fall for it that easily." Still, he chases after them all.
Shadow leads them to a nearby forest before throwing his staff like a javelin at Dragold, knocking Pterathundron out of the sky.
When Cinder catches up to him she forcefully lifts Dragold to his feet, "You fool, how are we supposed to gather emotions OUT HERE?!"
Dragold growls and punches her off. "Why don't you focus on collecting the emotions, and I'll be a warrior?!" He hisses.
"Because I am a warrior!"
"Looks like you're both a couple of suckers to me," Trent says from behind them.
"Shut up!" Dragold roars, shooting lightning at Trent's Megazord.
Trent rolls out of the way, and then punches Dragold with the Cephalazord.
Dragold stumbles before hissing, "Fuck this. You deal with them, I'll harvest emotions." He disappears, Pterathundron flying away.
"The Hell you are," Trent says as he switches out his arms for the normal ones, summoning up the staff. "Stegazord Stinger, Intercept!" He fires it at Pterathunderon.
Pterathundron turns back and knocks the spear away with lightning before flying out of sight.
"Dammit," Trent growls, catching the spear.
"Go after Dragold. I've got Cinder." Shadow states.
Trent nods, and runs after Drago.
Cinder turns to Shadow, "Well then, if you got your old powers back then is it safe to assume the other three have theirs?"
"Of course." Shadow nods. "A great backup."
She steps up, and swings her sword arm at him, "Too bad they won't be joining this battle."
"Makes me wonder what you did to them." Shadow deadpans, deflecting with his staff before making it turn back into the arms.
Cinder spins, trying to backhand him with her sword arm, "I assure you, nothing painful."
He catches it between the horns of his Tricera arm, locking it there as he throws a drill punch into her Megazord's face. "So... how in the world did you unlock Crimson?"
She stumbles back, and fires with Parasagun, "It was my true color all along, you just accepted me as Red Ranger because it’s a shade of red."
"Interesting." Shadow dodges aside, switching out the Tricerazord out for the Ankylozord. "I assume you can only use it because of Deboss?"
Cinder swaps out Parasagun for The stegozord arm, "Indeed, and now my power is fueled by hate. I think you understand how potent that power is."
"Indeed. Of course, I now realize that hate may grant power, but it also blinds you." He starts throwing drill punches.
She blocks with the shield, and parries with Veloslash, "Unless your entire method is based from it, like mine. Before I was even a Ranger I was driven by my hate. My hate for the pigs we call Men in This world, hate for those who harmed my students, and most of all... My own deep hatred for myself."
She knocks his arms wide, and Sparta Kicks him away, "That's why I can use this Deboss energy so effectively."
"No wonder you're weaker than I was when I was evil." He smirks, taking her off guard by drilling right into Gabutyra's leg.
She Bucklers into a kneeling position, "Ah dammit! Gabutyra, are you okay?!"
He then kicks her in the face, making her fall over. "You should work on your control over the Megazord. This fight is over." He warps away, the Megazord unforming and disappearing.
Cinder growls, disassembling her own Megazord. Defeat stings her, it's not something she experiences often.
"Hopefully I won't have to pretend much longer," she mutters as she picks up her rifle.
"Hopefully not." Gabutyra's nods. "I need a rest to heal up."
"You do that, friend," she says as she puts her rifle across her back. "I'll head back for the city, keep an eye on the situation."
"Thank you." The Zords separate, and Gabutyra limps away.
Cinder sighs as she bolts back for the city.
...
"You know what they say, what goes up must come down," Trent says as he leaps off a building, grabbing Pterathunderon.
"Can't leave well enough alone, hm?"
The Dino Stegozord gets blasted from behind.
Trent falls to the ground, and growls as he turns to see who attacked him.
D stands on a mountain, pointing a Beast Battery at him that has smoke pouring off the tip.
"What?! Just that was enough to hurt the Stegazord?!" Trent faces D, the Pterathunderon all but forgotten.
"Maybe it is because I control the most powerful Voltasaur of all." He states. "But I don't need him to fight your petty Megazord."
"Hmm, so you want to fight me face to face is that it? Fine by me, Shadow should be finished with Cinder by now."
"Then fight me." D brandishes his boomerang.
Trent leaps out of his Megazord, and it disassembles behind him as he lands fifty yards from D. "Heh, a rookie like you who couldn't beat Shadow, really thinks he stands a chance against me?" He taps his feather dagger on his shoulder, "This is going to be sad.” He makes a volley of light arrows, and fires them at D.
D slashes them into pieces easily. "Not impressed." He bends his Flute Buster into boomerang mode and throws it, slashing Trent as it flies by, and again as it comes back.
Trent looks down slowly, and then bursts into sparks. Then he drops to one knee.
"Alright... So I didn't give you enough credit..." He stands, and extends his dagger. Then he blurs into super speed as he charges D, slashing swiftly, efficiently.
D blocks them all easily before slashing Trent once. "You talk more than I do. And that's saying something." He states.
Trent rolls away, "Oh yeah? Well I just got three more words for you... Super Dino Mode!"
The black streaks on Trent's armor turn into long black spikes on his shoulderpads, arms, and legs. Two jagged blades extend from his fists, about two feet long.
D pauses. "...Impressive."
Trent dashes forward, catching D's boomerang as he blocks, and then sends it skywards. Then he rapidly slashes D actors his body. Then he jumps, kicking D away with a corkscrew kick.
D stumbles back and rubs his chest with a growl. He then charges forward and tackles Trent, grabbing his Flute Buster from Trent and slashing him as he changes it back to a sword.
Trent kicks him off, and spins to his feet as he slashes D across the chest rapidly like a spinning top.
D hits the ground on his back before getting up with a growl. "You're not half bad."
"Not too shabby yourself," Trent says. "You're actually making me take you serious, newbie."
"I may be new to this Ranger conflict, but I am no stranger to combat." he states.
"So I noticed," Trent says as he slowly paces around him. "But what I don't get is why you're with the Deboss. Even when I was evil I never bowed to anyone willingly."
"A long time ago, I sustained an injury that would forever make me unable to fight or live a normal life. Deboss gave me that freedom one again, and now I work for him." He states, watching Trent without moving.
"Ah, now that makes more sense," Tret says with a nod. "Well that saves me a bit of trouble. I can take you down without a headache from Shadow later."
"You say that like I'll go down like some common Deboss monster." He states, almost tauntingly.
"No, not like these other idiots," Trent corrects. "But you're still going down."
Trent brandishes his arm blades, energizing them into a pair of super long energy blades that Trent slashes in an X at D.
D twists aside, barely missing, before kicking Trent aside. "Enough of this. Deboss In." He pulls out a Navy blue battery labeled zero and loads it into his Flute Buster. "Flute Buster, Deboss Finish!" He throws it in its boomerang mode, throwing it at Trent.
Trent puts his feet together, and jumps high to avoid it.
D smirks as it flies up after Trent, and slashing him, exploding.
Trent cries out as he hits the ground on his front, grasping at the rocks under warmth him as he struggles to maintain his Ranger form.
D chuckles. "Very powerful, I admit. However, I have no more time to waste on you. Until next time, White Ranger." He turns and warps away.
Trent drops his Super Dino Mode as he gets unsteadily to his feet, "Doc? The new guy is stronger than we thought... I just got beat, watch out for another Megazord out there."
"Gotcha. I'll keep an eye out."
"How'd things go with Cinder?"
"Didn't want to, but I put a hole in Gabutyra's kneecap." Shadow says.
"Ouch... So she's out of the fight, unless she decides to take on the Megazords with her bare hands... Which now that I think about it she might actually do."
"A good theory. Or, she might team up with Dragold. I doubt it, but a possibility. Anyways, where are you?"
"A mountain outside of Reefside... I'm alright, you finish them while I let my Morpher get its power back."
"Actually, I need your help. There's a barrier over the carnival where the other Rangers are."
Trent nods, "I'll see what I can do, but I'll need to take the bus. I'm low on power right now."
"I'll have Mina send your Dino ATV."
"Oh yeah, forgot I had that thing," Trent says as he powers down.
The vehicle screeches to a halt next to him and revs up. "Here you go Trent. All gassed up and ready to roll!" Mina says happily.
Trent mounts it, and revs the engine twice, "Aw man, I missed that sound!"
He takes off for the carnival as fast as the vehicle will allow.
