THE BEAST WITHIN
A Power Rangers Ninja Storm /Wild Force Cross-Over
Inspired by/Based on Hurricanger vs. Gao Ranger
Written by AbareHunter - 06/07/05 - 03/04/06
The story begins with the three Wind Rangers, Shane Dustin and Tori, fighting against some Kelzacks near the shore of a beach.
Shane: Take this. Ninja Air Assault!!!
Shane leaps into the air and kicks some Kelzacks in the chest, back-flipping off of them and following up with a slash from his Ninja Sword.
Dustin, meanwhile, is running circles around the Kelzacks with his ninja powers. Moving underground and flinging the enemy away in a flurry of sparks, he finally comes up for air and recovers.
Dustin: I guess you guys didn’t dig my work, huh?
Tori is holding her own against the Kelzacks when she stops for a brief minute.
Tori: Boy, you all look exhausted. Maybe you should cool off for a while. Ninja Water Blast!
She gathers some water in her cupped hands and fires it at the Kelzacks, knocking them off their feet and leaving them sopping wet.
The Rangers continue to give the six remaining Kelzacks a sound thrashing before leaping onto a cliff-head. As the Rangers sheathe their Ninja Swords, the Kelzacks collapse in an explosion.
Shane: Hey Lothor! You’re gonna have to do better than that to beat us!
Suddenly, the Wind Ranger trio are knocked off their feet by a small explosion. As they recover, they each look up to see gloved fists opening to reveal multiple sets of claws.
Shane: Whoa.
Tori: Who are these guys?
Dustin: Anyone get the number of that fist?
The Wind Rangers get to their feet, and we are now shown a very familiar-looking dagger with a large hole in its golden hilt. Next, we see five different coloured helmets…
Red: Blazing Lion!
Yellow: Soaring Eagle!
Black: Iron Bison!
Blue: Surging Shark!
And White: Noble Tiger!
Lion Ranger: Guardians Of The Earth, united we roar! POWER RANGERS!
The five challengers go into their respective poses.
All: WILD FORCE!!!
Shane looks at the Lion Ranger, confused.
Shane: Wild Force?
Lion Ranger: That’s right. We are the Wild Force Rangers, loyal servants of Lothor.
The Wind Rangers freak out and go on the defensive as the Wild Force Rangers raise their weapons and attack. Tori shifts her Ninja Sword into Rifle mode and fires on the charging Tiger Ranger, who leaps towards Tori and slashes her in the chest, proceeding to drag her along the ground before throwing her off the cliff-edge. Tiger Ranger laughs as her dazed opponent plummets to certain doom.
Landing in the ocean below, Tori barely has time to recover before catching sight of Shark Ranger.
Tori: This is not good. Sonic Fin!
Shark Ranger: Not so fast! Blue Shark Fighting Fins!
Spinning around like a tornado, Shark Ranger beats Tori back effortlessly with his counter-attack.
Shark Ranger: Too easy.
Dustin, with his Ninja Sword drawn, is facing off against Eagle Ranger.
Dustin: Wild Force, huh? You look pretty tame to me.
He leaps upward and Eagle Ranger prepares to meet him, brandishing her Yellow Eagle Sword. She slashes Dustin and lands perfectly, while Dustin isn’t so lucky and lands on his head with an almighty thud, screaming in pain from the impact.
Eagle Ranger: And you’re a ninja? Don’t make me laugh.
Dustin: Just wait till you see my bag of tricks.
With that, Dustin disappears in a cloud of yellow smoke and performs his Ninja Ground Strike. As he re-surfaces, Eagle Ranger flies out from the smoke and strikes him down.
Shane is busy going toe-to-toe with Bison Ranger
Shane: So you’re a bison huh? Toro, Toro! HAHAHAHAHA
He performs his Air Assault again but is caught completely off-guard upon being grabbed by the neck and swung to the ground in a daze.
Shane: Talk about being bull-headed. Huh?
He looks up to see Lion Ranger marching towards him. Unsheathing his Ninja Sword, Shane bounds towards the scoffing Lion Ranger.
Shane: Come and get it, tough guy.
Lion Ranger: If you dish it, I can take it.
Shane slices Lion Ranger, who responds by grabbing the Ninja Sword within his Lion Fang weapon…
Lion Ranger: Prepare to feel the wrath of the Blazing Lion!!!
…before flinging him backward by the arm and whooping the Red Wind Ranger’s butt six ways from Sunday. Shane collapses into his weakened team-mates as they pull themselves together.
Dustin: Man, these guys are tough.
Shane: You said it, bro.
Tori: We have to do something.
The Wind Rangers continue to defend themselves when their Wind Morphers sound-off.
Shane: Go for Shane.
Sensei: Rangers, please return to Ninja Ops immediately. Cam has made an important discovery.
Dustin: Oh Sensei, am I glad to hear your voice.
Tori: Hearing you loud and clear, Sensei.
The Wild Force Rangers pull out their empty Crystal Sabers and launch a powerful wave of energy at the Wind Rangers, who scream as the area is engulfed in a blinding white light.
When the brightness fades, the Wind Rangers are gone, and only their uniforms remain. Lion Ranger inspects Shane’s outfit…
Lion Ranger: What the?
while Bison Ranger scans for Dustin…
Bison Ranger: Where’d they go?
and Tiger Ranger looks peeks under Tori’s uniform
Tiger Ranger: Yeah, where’d they go?
Lion Ranger: No matter, they can run all they want, but we’ll find them. And once we do…
We now come to Ninja Ops, where the Wind Rangers are shocked over their defeat.
Dustin: Is anybody else still bugging over those guys?
Tori: We are so not ready for a re-match.
Shane: I can’t believe it. Who do those guys think they are?
Shane slams his fist on the table in anger, only to cringe in pain a moment later from the injury his arm received.
Dustin: Whoa, man. You ok?
Shane: Yeah, bro. It’s just…
Dustin: I know, I know.
Cam enters the room soon after, shocked at the sight of the Rangers..
Cam: Holy…Have a bad day at the zoo, did we?
Shane: You don’t know the half of it.
Cam: Well, if you think that was crazy, you’d better brace yourselves.
Cam sits at his computer and begins typing.
Dustin: You got any dirt on those Wild dudes?
Cam: I can safely say they aren’t working for Lothor.
Shane: Say what? What do you mean?
Sensei: He means that the Wild Force is a Ranger team, just like you.
The Wind Rangers are left completely dumb-founded.
Shane: More Rangers?
Dustin: Besides us?
Tori: You’ve gotta be joking!
Sensei then bounces from key to key on Cam’s keyboard until he brings up a new screen displaying the five Wild Force Rangers in civilian form: Taylor, Cole and Alyssa in the top row and Max and Danny underneath.
Sensei: These Rangers used their powers to protect the Earth from the ruthless Master Org and his followers, who sought to destroy Earth through pollution and destruction.
He then points at each Rangers’ mugshot and reveals a little about them.
Sensei: Cole Evans, the Red Lion Ranger - A young man raised in the jungle, who is eventually recruited to become the new leader of the Wild Force Rangers. Taylor Earhardt, Yellow Eagle Ranger - Former Wild Force leader, she was an air-force pilot before becoming the very first Wild Force Ranger. Max Cooper, Blue Shark Ranger - the youngest of the Wild Force Rangers, Max derives his power from the Surging Shark, and excels in underwater battles. Danny Delgado, Black Bison Ranger – The strongman of the team is usually a very gentle soul, and doesn’t fight unless he has to. And finally, Alyssa Enrile, the White Tiger Ranger – The second-youngest of the team must juggle her Ranger duties with her time as a student at Turtle Cove University.
The screen blanks out, and a look of concern crosses Shane’s face.
Shane: If these guys really are Rangers, then why would they fight us? Unless…
Dustin: I can hear you brain ticking over, bro. You cooking up a plan or what?
Shane: I was just thinking, what if Lothor tricked Wild Force into working for him, like he did to the Thunder Rangers?
Cam: Speaking of the Thunders, I think we'd better get in touch with them and let them know what's going on.
Sensei: Good idea, son.
Meanwhile, on Lothor's ship, Lothor is pleased with the effort the Wild Force has made in defeating the Wind Rangers.
Lothor: Evil Power Rangers..I never thought I'd see the day. Or have them working for me, either.
Lothor laughs gleefully as he observes the Wild Force Rangers, who are awaiting their next orders.
Lothor: If you can't beat 'em, get your own. Now, i can finally do away with those irritating Power Rangers once and for all.
Suddenly, a familiar voice comes from behind him.
Voice: Not if we've got anything to say about it!
And we zoom in to see Cole calling out from behind a force feild. He is clearly upset over the fact that an imposter is masquerading as his alter-ego.
Lothor: And what exactly do you propose to do, Mr. High and Mighty Jungle Boy?
Cole simply glares at Lothor and says nothing.
Lothor: Didn't think so. You see, you don't just wake up one morning and decide to take over the world. There are steps to be taken.
My soldiers stole your Growl Phones from that..what do you call it? Oh, yes "Animarium", and thanks to a little bit of my dark ninja magic, I have created my own set of Shadow Phones.
Lothor chuckles again and the evil Wild Force follow him as he leaves. Cole turns to face his trapped team-mates. Taylor and Danny to his right, and Alyssa and Max to his left.
Alyssa: This is impossible. How could someone else be using our powers?
Cole: I know.
Taylor: Any ideas on how to get us out of here, Jungle Boy? These force feilds have messed up our Growl Phones.
Cole: Never give up, guys. We'll find a way out. One way or another.
Meanwhile, the Thunder Rangers are in a forest area, challenging each other to a friendly sparring match when their morphers sound off.
Hunter: This is Hunter.
Cam: Guys, you won't beleive what's happened.
Blake: Try us.
Cam: Apparently, Lothor has drafted another team of Rangers.
Blake: I didn't think there were anymore Rangers. Besides us, i mean.
Hunter: I wonder who Lothor suckered in this time?
Cam: I don't know what Lothor's done, but these Rangers call themselves the Wild Force. Come to Ninja Ops and we'll fill you in.
Hunter: Wild Force, huh? Alright. We're on our way.
The Thunder Rangers start to head off when they hear a rustling in the trees behind them. Stopping to listen, the Thunders are soon struck down when something comes flying at them from the air and claws them into the ground. Blake and Hunter get to their feet as laughter breaks out and Lion Ranger steps forward along with the rest of his teammates.
Lion Ranger: My ears were burning. You've been talking about us, havent you?
Hunter takes a moment to get a look at the attackers.
Hunter: You must be those Rangers we've been hearing about.
Shark Ranger: And you must be the traitors that Master Lothor told us about.
Blake: We're traitors? Why don't you take a look at yourselves before you start mouthing off about treachery.
Hunter: I don't know who you think you are, but you're way out of your league.
Eagle Ranger: In case you haven't noticed, there's five of us and only two of you.
Hunter: I've had it with these Power Posers. Ready, bro?
Blake: I'm with you.
Blake & Hunter: Thunder Storm! Ranger Form!
Blake and Hunter stand, ready for battle as the Wild Force Rangers charge them, each Ranger drawing out their weapons. Hunter takes a swing at Tiger Ranger using his Thunder Staff, while Tiger Ranger dodges and counters by kneeing Hunter in the gut. Hunter staggers around, winded and vulnerable to attack by Bison Ranger, who headbutts him and leaves him cringing in pain. Tiger and Bison proceed to mock the defenseless Crimson Ranger. Blake, meanwhile, isn't having much better luck against Eagle Ranger, who deals Blake a harsh blow to the head before shoving him back by the chin of his helmet, sending him tumbling down next to Hunter. The Thunder Rangers help each other up and up the ante by summoning their own weapons...
Hunter: Crimson Blaster!
Blake: Navy Antler!
...before rushing into battle again. Blake manages to catch Shark Ranger by the neck with his Navy Antler, and shoves him aside. Hunter, meanwhile, starts using Eagle Ranger as target practice, firing continous rounds from his Crimson Blaster, unaware that Lion Ranger is sneaking up on his brother. Hunter tries to warn Blake upon catching sight of Lion Ranger, but..
Lion Ranger: Lion Blaster, Cannon Mode!
Blake: Huh?
Too late! The next thing Blake feels is the searing pain of being shocked by a surging energy ball. Hunter runs to his brother's aid.
Hunter: You ok, Blake?
Blake: Yeah, I'll survive. These guys really are tough.
Hunter: You said it. Now, what do you say we finish this?
Blake: You read my mind, bro.
Hunter helps Blake to his feet, and the Thunder duo combine their weapons.
Thunder Rangers: Thunder Blaster!
The Wild Force aren't too phased by this.
Tiger Ranger: Well, this is... interesting
Lion Ranger: Okay, we'll play it your way. Falconator!
Bison Ranger: Rhino Shooter!
Tiger Ranger: Deer Clutcher!
Shark Ranger: Spear Of Pardolis!
Eagle Ranger: Armadillo Puck!
Having summoned their weapons, the Wild Force unite them into the..
Wild Force: Jungle Blaster!
Lion Ranger: FIRE!
The Thunder Rangers return fire and clash blasts with the Wild Force. Back and forth the blasts teeter, each Ranger team pushing to overpower the other. Finally, theres a large explosion of energy. When the dust clears, the Wild Force is left standing while the Thunders are on sprawled on the ground. Bruised. Demorphed. Beaten. The Wild Force simply laugh...
Lion Ranger: Two down, three to go
...before disappearing again. The Thunder Rangers get up, looking somewhat peeved.
Hunter: Man, that was just brutal.
Blake: Tell me about it, bro. Hey, we'd better meet up with the others, they're probably waiting for us.
Hunter: Yeah, you're right. Let's go.
And with that, the Thunder Rangers streak off towards Ninja Ops. Back on Lothor's ship, the true, captive Wild Force Rangers dont seem to be having much luck escaping from there confines. Max is nursing a sore shoulder, most likely having tried to ram his way out of the force field.
Taylor: Told you it wouldn't work.
Max: Well, you cant blame a guy for trying, huh?
Cole: I agree. Its better than sitting around here, but I don't know what else we can do. I mean, those imposters will destory the planet soon..
Cole bows his head, awaiting his fate when he hears footsteps. Looking up, he expects to see Lothor but is instead met with a shiny green boot. The whisper of a friendly voice breaks the silence.
Voice: Need a hand?
Meanwhile, back on the Earth, the evil Wild Force Rangers are doing battle with another familiar face. That of Merrick. The evil Wild Force are taunting him as he resists fighting them.
Merrick: I don't understand why we're fighting. This is madness. You're heroes, remember?
Lion Ranger: Heroes? HA! You wish.
Merrick: What did you say?
Tiger Ranger: You heard.
Lion Ranger: Are you sure you don't want to help us, Merrick? You were evil once, and who knows, you might learn to like it again.
Merrick: I'll never give into evil again, and I know you wouldn't either.
Eagle Ranger: Pretty ironic for someone who used to be a freaky-looking Org.
Lion Ranger: If you won't join us willingly, we have ways of forcing you. Maybe we should pay Princess Shayla another visit.
Shocked and angered, Merrick finally snaps..
Merrick: I don't know whats come over you, and as much as I regret what I'm about to do, you leave me no choice! PREPARE YOURSELVES!
He reaches for his Lunar Caller and opens it, with a sudden fury in his eyes.
Merrick: WILD ACCESS!
In a blaze of light, Merrick is transformed into the Lunar Wolf Ranger. Flashing the claws from his gloves, he tenses up, ready for a battle.
Merrick: First you abuse the powers of the ancient warriors, using them for evil. And now you dare to harm the princess? I will not stand for this. Now, you face the Howling Wolf.
Charging forward, Merrick thrashes at the Wild Force with all his might. Then, whipping out his Lunar Cue, he switches it to Sniper Mode and blasts the evil Wild Force while they attempt to recover. Dazed from the beating, the Wild Force band together and gang up on him, taking him down slowly. Merrick blocks a kick from Tiger Ranger, only to be caught off guard as Bison Ranger delivers a crush blow to his ribs. Lion Ranger sprints towards Merrick, but the pure-hearted Wolf Ranger, fighting through his pain, manages a dodge at the last minute and grabs for Lion Ranger. As Merrick attempts to throw him over his head, Lion Ranger reverses the move and Merrick ends up face first on the ground.
Lion Ranger: Let's end this...Jungle Sword!
As the Wild Force combine their usual weapons and lift the sword up into the air, the blade fills up with energy.
Lion Ranger: SAVAGE SLASH!
The sword comes down, as the powerful wave of light tears through Merrick's body, leaving him seriously injured and in agony. As Merrick forces himself up and catches his breath, Lion Ranger claps his hands, chuckling.
Lion Ranger: Well, old friend, that was a right pretty display. Such a shame your bark is worse than your bite. I'm astonished you can still get to your feet in your condition.
Merrick: I..won't allow you...to harm...the..princess...
Firmly clutching his weapon, Merrick summons his Animal Crystals and, conjuring up a green square of light that binds the evil Wild Force, prepares his finishing attack.
Merrick: Laser Pool!
Placing his Animal Crystals on the square, Merrick takes careful aim as the Wild Force struggle to break free.
Lion Ranger: What the!
Shark Ranger: I can't move!
Bison Ranger: How the heck?
Tiger Ranger: We'll get you for this.
Eagle Ranger: Well, what're you waiting for? Take your best shot!
In response, Merrick shifts his grip on the Lunar Cue...
Merrick: Gladly!
...and fires. The Animal Crystals blast towards the Wild Force and strike them down, just as the Thunder Rangers arrive on the scene.
Hunter: So, there's another one?
Blake: I say we get him. Who knows what he'll do.
Hunter: Wait, bro. Check it out. What are they doing?
As the Thunders watch carefully, they see the remnants of an explosion die down, and Merrick calls through to the Wild Force from the cloud of smoke.
Merrick: It's over! Your battle is lost!
The Wild Force rise and draw their Crystal Sabers. As their Animal Crystals begin to glow, the Rangers insert them into their Sabers.
Lion Ranger: On the contrary Silver Wolf Ranger, the real battle is only just beggining!
All: Wild Zords, descend!
Back on Lothor's ship, we see that Cam, having reached and infiltrated Lothor's ship in his DragonForce Vehicle, has apparently been caught out trying to free the good Wild Force from their prison. Cornered by the Kelzac Furies, Cam keeps his guard up.
Cam: Looks like quite the welcoming commitee. Too bad I can't stay and chat.
Using his Samurai Saber, Cam slashes through the gauntlet of Kelzacks.
Cam: Hang on guys, I'll have you out of here in a second.
Cole: Please hurry.
As he reaches the force-field controls, Cam is suddenly dogpiled by hordes of Kelzacks. After a breif struggle, he manages to fling them off and stabs the controls with his weapon.
The energy feilds around the Wild Force power down, as the Rangers breathe sighs of releif.
Max: Alright. Way to go!
Allysa: Thankyou ever so much.
Cole: We owe you our freedom.
Taylor: Thanks.
Cam: Let's celebrate later. My friends need help back on Earth. And you guys need to clear your names somehow.
Cole: Don't worry. You do your part, we'll do ours.
Cam: Great. Now, lets get out of here before Lothor realizes what happened.
Meanwhile, the evil Wild Force Rangers are fighting against Merrick's Predazord within the Wild Force Megazord, with Merrick on the losing end.
Lion Ranger: This is far too easy. I thought your Zords would be a challenge, Merrick.
Merrick: I don't beleive it. How can the Megazord be this strong? Predazord, don't fail me now.
Lion Ranger: Fin Blade!
The Megazord summons it's Fin Blade weapon as the Predazord slowly hobbles up onto its feet. As the Wild Force Megazord moves in for the kill, the Thunder Rangers, still watching in complete amazement, are surprised when the Wind Rangers show up.
Hunter: Shane? What're you doing here? Where have you been?
Shane: I was about to ask you the same thing.
Hunter: We were ambushed by the Wild Force on our way to Ninja Ops. What's your story?
Dustin: Sensei wanted us to go looking for any sign of these dudes.
Blake: Wait, where's Cam? Shouldn't he be with you?
Tori: Sensei sent him on an important mission. We asked him what it was, but he wouldn't say. Only that it was important.
Hunter: Well, I say we get in there.
Shane: Wait, we shouldnt hurt them.
Dustin: Bro, I dont know about you, but the dislocated shoulder and countless bruises on my face are protesting as you speak.
Tori: Yeah, I don't see why you're holding back.
Shane: You heard what Sensei said, they're Rangers.. just like us!
Hunter: Im normally all for petty bickering but what's say we just put an end to this right now? You ready, Blake?
Blake: Way ahead of you, bro.
Hunter and Blake detach their morphers and call for their Zords
Hunter: Crimson Insectizord!
Blake: Navy Beetlezord!
And the two Zords emerge, ready and waiting for their pilots.
Shane: Oh, this is great. Ninja Zords!
The Wind Rangers leap into their Zords and head towards the battle aswell.
Shane: Well, guys, you ready for this?
Tori: Ready as I'll ever be
Dustin: Ditto
The Wind Rangers get a good look at the Wild Force Megazord as the Predazord charges forward, preparing to perform its Phantom Revolver attack. Back and forth, Merrick strikes continuously, dazing the Megazord and shaking the evil Wild Force from within their cockpit.
Dustin: Woah! Look at that thing!
Tori: Somebody call a plastic surgeon
Shane: You know what they say: The bigger they are...
Lion Ranger: Some uninvited guests? Well, that will soon be rectified.
Recovering from its beating, the WF Megazord spots Dustin's Lion Zord and swats it backwards, the Zord crashing to the ground after sailing through the cool air.
Dustin: The more damage they do. Man, my head's gonna be sore for a month.
Meanwhile, the Crimson Insectizord adds further injury by barraging the WF Megazord with laster blasts from its powerful cannons, while Shane hovers around the WF Megazord head, literally heating things up with his Hawk Zord's Fire Strike attack.
Shane: Hot enough for ya?
Hunter: Hey Blake, what's say we send these animals back to the wild?
Blake: Right.
Hunter: Thunder Megazord formation!
The two Thunder Zords combine into their Megazord form, and prepares to attack. Trading blow after vicious blow, The Thunder Megazord seems to be winning. Until...
Shark Ranger: We need re-enforcements
Tiger Ranger: Elephant Zord!
Tiger Ranger replaces her Tiger Crystal with the Elephant one, and the Elephant Zord stampedes into battle. The Thunder Megazord stumbles out of the way as its pilots look on in total shock.
Hunter: Another Zord?
Blake: No way!
Dustin catches up to his teammates as they close in around the Wild Force Megazord.
Dustin: I'm up for some payback. Lion Tornado Blast
The Lion Zord's mane spins around, creating a mini-typhoon and hurling chunks of debris at the Megazord.
Lion Ranger: Accursed cat. Sword and Sheild Mode!
The Elephant splits into its Sword and Sheild Mode, and the Wild Force lash out at the Ninja Zords. The Wind Rangers go on the defensive and do their best to keep out of harm's way, narrowly avoiding each attack.
Shane: Yikes! That was close.
Tori: Tell me about it, I dont wanna end up as Dolphin Sushi.
Dustin: Whoa, dude!
Turning their attention to the Thunder Rangers again, the Wild Force begin crippling the Megazord with savage slashes from its Pachyderm Crusher attack. Sustaining heavy damages, the Thunder Megazord slumps to the ground as the Wild Force moves into finish off Hunter and Blake.
Lion Ranger: Let's squash this bug.
Hunter: Not if we have anything to say about it. Power Discs, lock and drop!
As the Pachyderm Sword The Thunder Rangers insert their Power Discs into the Megazord and seconds later, the Megazord's chest opens up and expels Power Sphere 4.
Thunder Rangers: Spin Blade!
Blocking the WF Megazord's final blow, the Thunder Rangers shove their attacker backwards and proceed to deliver a mighty slash with their weapon, piercing the Shark Zord's armour. As the battle rages, Cam and the real Wild Force are running speedily towards the battleground. Princess Shayla, who had previously hidden from Lothor's troops when they invaded, watches them from the Animaria via her reflecting pool and wishes them luck.
Taylor: I hope we're not too late.
Max: We've gotta get our Zords back
Back on the battlefield....
Shane: Let's lend a hand, guys. Form the Megazord!
Tori: Right!
Dustin: Yeah!
The Storm Megazord marches in and struggles against the Wild Force Megazord, getting in a few good attacks with before being hoisted up by the Wild Force and thrown to the wayside. The Wind Rangers are shaken by the fierce impact.
Dustin: Oh man! Talk about a rough ride.
Tori: These guys are tough.
Shane: Well, we're tougher! After all, one has the strength of three, right?
The other Wind Rangers nod in agreement.
Wind Rangers: Lightning Megazord!
The Storm Megazord sheds it bulky armour as Lightning Mode is engaged. Watching from the Wild Force Megazord cockpit, Lion Ranger seems completely unphased.
Lion Ranger: You really think dropping a few pounds is going to help you win? Honestly, why can't you people just stay down?
Shane: What can I say? We're slow learners.
As the real Wild Force approach a nearby cliffedge, Alyssa is completely stunned.
Alyssa: Oh no! They've got my Zords! NO!!!
Cole: Don't worry, Alyssa. We'll get our Zords back.
Cam: It looks like the others are in bigger trouble than I thought. Well, my friends, I'll leave you to it then.
Cole: Hey, Cam?
Cam: Yeah?
Cole extends his hand...
Cole: Thanks for your help
Cam: Don't mention it.
...and Cam takes it as the pair shake hands. With that, Cam leaves to help his team-mates.
Cam: Shane? Tori? Dustin? Please come in, anyone.
Shane: Cam?
Cam: Who else would it be?
Dustin: Dude, what happened with you?
Cam is suddenly bought to a stop as Lothor himself appears infont of him through a portal, grinning menacingly.
Cam: No time to explain, guys. It seems my mission hasn't finished just yet
And with that, he cuts out off the communication. As the Battle of the Megazord's continues, thw Wild Force and Lightning Megazord are exchanging blows with their weapons, gashing deeply into each other. The Lightning Megazord stabs into the Wild Force Megazord's leg, and the Wild Force Megazord returns the favour by slicing the Lightning Megazord across the face with its Fin Blade, followed by a barrage of punches from its Tiger Fury attack. As the Wild Force Megazord moves to deliver another blow, the Lightning Megazord catches its arm, knocks it off-balance and delivers a powerful spin-kick just a split second before the 60-second time limit expires and the Lightning Megazord reverts to the Storm Megazord.
Shane: Alright, we got 'em. Ready guys?
Dustin: You know it, dude.
Tori: Yeah.
Shane: Power discs, lock and drop!
The Wind Rangers insert their Power Discs into their Megazord, and soon Power Sphere 1 is unveiled, opening up to reveal the...
Wind Rangers: Serpent Sword!
Back on the cliff-edge, the real Wild Force are watching helplessly as their own Megazord battles for the forces of evil.
Max: This is horrible. What're we gonna do?
Danny: Any plans?
Cole: That was the good thing being trapped for so long. It gave me time to think of one. Everybody got their Animal Crystals?
The other Rangers produce their Crystals and nod.
Cole: Alright. Follow my lead.
Cole holds his Animal Crystals in the sky, and the other Rangers do the same
Cole: Alright, now close your eyes and concentrate..Hard.
Cole's team-mates do as he asks, and shortly after, the Animal Crystals begin to glow. Back on the battlefield, the Storm Megazord prepares to deliver the final blow and slashes downward, striking the Wild Force Megazord. However, instead of toppling defeatedly, the Wild Force Megazord begins to glow and buckle uncontrollably. Inside the Wild Force cockpit, the evil Wild Force Rangers are thrown about as their surroundings spark up and lightning fills the room.
Lion Ranger: YARRGH! What's happening?
Bison Ranger: Beats me.
Eagle Ranger: NO! The Megazord formation is breaking up!
On the cliffedge, the Wild Force are still concentrating, and their Animal Crystals glowing more intensely than ever. As the Wild Force Megazord continues to twitch and writhe, it is finally broken into its five separate Zord components and the evil Wild Force are violently ejected, much to the surprise of the Wind Rangers.
Shane: That really just happened, right?
Dustin: No way. Did we do that?
Tori: I..I don't think so.
The good Wild Force cheer as their Zords are back under their control again. Meanwhile, Cam and Lothor confront each other.
Lothor: Well, Green Samurai Ranger, we meet again.
Cam: What do you want, Lothor?
Lothor: Just to extend my congratulations to you.
Cam: Me? What do I have to do with this?
Lothor: Come, now. I'm about to become supreme ruler of the universe, and I have you to thank for it. After all, you made me, remember?
Cam: What?
Lothor: Don't think I don't remember that day at the Wind Ninja Academy, when you prevented me from attaining the power within that amulet of yours.
Angered, Cam faces down Lothor.
Cam: I..I remember. And it sickens me to know that I'm related to you.
Lothor: Well, I'm here now. So what're you gonna do about it...Nephew?
Cam: Just wait and see..Super Samurai Mode!
Cam sheds his armour and rotates his visor from its usual star design, to the Super Samurai's flame design, and prepares to battle his uncle. Lothor starts hurling powerful energy blasts, but Cam effortlessly dodges. Drawing out his Samurai Saber, Cam charges towards Lothor, deflecting the dark ninja's energy blasts. Engaging in close combat, Cam fights well against Lothor, slahshing with his Saber and producing seemingly endless punches and kicks. As Cam peforms flips foward to kick the disoriented Lothor, he is blasted in mid-air. Despite the searing pain in his body, he forces himself up to see Lothor surrounded by the evil Wild Force Rangers. The Wind and Thunder Rangers join Cam shortly after.
Shane: Well, well, look what the cat dragged in.
Lothor: This is the last time you interfere with my affairs, Rangers.
Dustin: Dude, its the big cheese himself
Cam: You noticed that, huh?
Shane: I don't get it, Lothor. Just how did you get your own Ranger team?
Hunter: Hey, yeah. I bet you tricked them, like you did to Blake and I.
Suddenly, the Lion Ranger steps forward and speaks, but his voice is different.
Lion Ranger: Not quite, Crimson Ranger. I beleive I can answer your question for you. Power down!
The Lion Ranger costume dissolves to reveal...Zurgane.
Ninja Rangers: ZURGANE???
Zurgane: Yes, it is I. Zurgane!
The other Wild Force costumes dissolve to reveal Choobo, Marah, Kapri and Shimazu. They all chuckle as the Ninja Rangers stare, completely astounded.
Shane: Woah, dude! No way! How?
Tori: Ooh, I think I'm gonna be sick.
Choobo: Pay attention and we'll show you.
Suddenly, a voice booms out from behind them.
Voice: HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!
Everyone looks up to see Cole, flanked by his team-mates. He calls out to Zurgane...
Cole: I'll only say this once. Give up your powers or face us.
Lothor laughs, along with Zurgane and his troops.
Lothor: Not a chance, Jungle Boy. I've got the whole Ranger package right where I want you. Once you and your friends are disposed of, then the world shall be mine for the taking and there won't be a thing you can do to stop me!
Cole: Then you leave us no choice.
Cole takes out his Growl Phone and opens it.
Cole: Are you ready, guys?
Max: Yeah!
Taylor: You bet I am
Danny: Of course
Alyssa: Sure thing
All: WILD ACESS!
Activating their Growl Phones, Cole and the others don their Wild Force Ranger outfits as Zurgane shows off his Shadow Phone. The Shadow Phones are built exactly like the Growl Phone, except they are black with sivler highlights.
Zurgane: Bring it on. Ready?
Zurgane's comrades nod and prepare their Growl Phones.
Evil Wild Force: SHADOW ACCESS!
The five villains are engulfed in Ranger colored mist and when it clears, the group are in their Wild Force outfits. In addition to Zurgane posing as Lion Ranger, Choobo becomes Shark Ranger, Shimazu is masquerading as Bison Ranger, Marah is Tiger Ranger and Kapri is the Eagle Ranger. Upon morphing Zurgane cries out...
Zurgane: Destoryers of the Earth! Shadow Force!
The real Wild Force leap down to confront their counterparts.
Cole: Blazing Lion!
Taylor: Soaring Eagle!
Max: Surging Shark!
Danny: Iron Bison!
Alyssa: Noble Tiger!
Merrick rushes over to join his teammates...
Merrick: Howling Wolf!
Cole: Guardians of the Earth, united we roar! POWER RANGERS!
Wild Force: WILD FORCE!
The Ninja Rangers follow suite and perform their own roll call
Shane: Red Ranger! Power Of Air!
Tori: Blue Ranger! Power Of Water!
Dustin: Yellow Ranger! Power Of Earth!
Hunter: Crimson Ranger! Power Of Thunder!
Blake: Navy Ranger! Power Of Thunder!
Cam: Green Ranger! Power Of The Samurai!
Ninja Rangers: NINJA STORM!
All twelve Rangers stand, ready for battle, and cry out.
All: POWER RANGERS!!!
The Rangers charge into battle against the evil Wild Force. Shane and Cole double-team Zurgane, blasting at him with their weapons. Zurgane deflects the lasers and starts bashing the pair using his Lion Fang. Managing to escape Zurgane's grasp, the two Red Rangers return the favour and strike back: Cole with his own Lion Fang, and Shane using his Ninja Sword. Zurgane takes their attacks and counters Shane with a fierce barrage of claw attacks. Cole manages to separate the two, and follows up by firing an energy blast from his Crystal Saber. Shane steps in and topples Zurgane with his Air Assault, kicking him in the face. Kapri, meanwhile, is being chased down by Hunter and Blake on their Tsumani Cycles. They fire at her, and she retaliates by throwing Soaring Darts, but to no avail. Blake and Hunter fire again, knocking Kapri clean off her feet and face down into the dirt. She recovers and tries to escape, only to run into...
Taylor: Going somewhere?
Kapri: Well, I was, but you're kind of in the way.
Kapri turns to run the other way, but Dustin appears infront of her.
Dustin: Not so fast there, girl. I got a bone to pick with you. Lion Hammer!
Dustin slams his hammer down, sending a shockwave through the ground that send Kapri tumbling into the arms of Taylor who proceeds to throw her aside and slash Kapri with her Eagle Sword. Again sprawled on the ground, Kapri looks an her gloved hand and grumbles.
Kapri: Oww...I think I broke a nail.
Choobo has his hands tied against Cam and Merrick. Choobo charges forward, brandishing his Fighting Fins, and slams into Cam, pushing him backwards and trying to shove him over the cliffedge. Cam gains his footing and punches Choobo in the face, then slashing him with his Samurai Saber. While dazed, Choobo notices a blur heading towards him, which turns out to be Merrick, running on all fours. He leaps up and somersaults over Choobo's head, grabbing it in the process, and throws him towards the cliff-edge. Max emerges from the water, striking Choobo and playfully waving as Choobo tumbles down into the ocean.
Max: Happy landings.
Danny, Blake and Hunter join forces against Shimazu, who summons a squadron of Wolfblades to help him out. Blake and Hunter deal with the Wolfblades while Danny takes on Shimazu. The pair charge at each other and proceed to tackle each other down in a show of brute force, exchanging brutal blows with one another. Blake and Hunter stand back to back as the Wolfblade circle them. Hunter boosts Blake up over the Wolfblades as Blake summons his Thunder Blade in mid-air, slashing at a group of the Wolfblades as he lands. Hunter flawlessy shoots down his opponents. Shimazu and Danny are still going at it, with Shimazu holding the advantage. Having summoned his Black Bison Ax, he moves to strike Danny, but Danny manages to grab the Ax's blade in between his hands and after a breif struggle, boots Shimazu off of him.
Alyssa, Tori and Marah square off as well...
Tori: I never could picture you as a Ranger, even an evil one.
Marah: White seems to look good on me. Would've prefered pink but hey, what can you do?
Alyssa: Let's go, Tori.
Tori: Alright.
Tori and Alyssa attack, brandishing their weapons, and Marah does the same after a breif panic attack. Unfortunately, Marah doesnt fair quite as well as the others. After Alyssa disarms her and smacks her across the face with her White Tiger Baton, Marah is then swept off her feet by Tori's Water Blast, the force of which causes her to de-morph.
Tori: Looks like you're all washed up, Marah.
Tori and Alyssa high-five each other. As Marah recovers and tries to get up, Alyssa leaps on top of her and proceeds to scratch the hapless vilainess across the face. As the evil Wild Force regroup, Marah gets a look at her reflection in Kapri's visor and freaks out, shocked at the state of herself. Cam steps up, powers up to Super Samurai Mode again and delivers an energized slash from his saber, while Merrick traps the villains in his Laser Pool grid and fires off his Animal Crystals. Both attacks strike together, leaving Zurgane and co. weakened severely. As both good Ranger teams gather, Shane and Cole both look at each other, nod, and call out...
Shane & Cole: Let's combine our weapons.
Ninja Rangers: Alright!
Wild Force: Yeah!
The Wild Force combine their weapons into the Jungle Sword, and perform the Savage Slash attack. As the powerful, energized blade swoops down upon the evil Wild Force, the impact de-morphs the team and as they tumble to the ground, their Shadow Phones are left exposed. The Ninja Rangers unite their weapons and form the Thunderstorm Cannon, and fire it. As Zurgane and his team recover and scramble to retrieve their phones, the Thunderstorm Cannon's energy blast strikes the phones, incinerating them. As Zurgane and his team recover and scramble to retrieve their phones, the Thunderstorm Cannon's energy blast strikes the phones, incinerating them. Zurgane and Shimazu arise, grumbling furiously while Choobo, Marah and Kapri cower in fear.
Zurgane: CURSE YOU!
Shane and Cole step forward, standing side-by-side, when Shane playfully nudges Cole.
Shane: You want to do the honors?
Cole: You bet.
Cole detaches his belt buckle and raises it above his head.
Cole:Animarium Armour!
Shane: Lightning Morpher!
With that, the two Red Rangers find themselves endowed with their..
Shane & Cole: Battlizer Armour!
The villains stand in fear, when Lothor steps in front of them, perturbed.
Lothor: Must I do everything myself?
Lothor charges toward the Red Rangers and trades blows with them. Shane blocks Lothor's punch with his gauntlet and knocks the evil ninja backwards, following up with a flurry of attacks. The other Rangers attempt to rush Lothor while he is dazed, but he manages to recover and launches powerful bolts of lightning that scatter the Rangers, leaving them writhing in pain. Returning his attention to the Red Rangers, he looks up to see Shane hovering in the air, preparing to swoop down upon him. He fires more lightning at Shane and knocks him out of the sky.With Lothor's attention diverted momentarily, Cole uses this time to give the evil Space Ninja a surprise of his own.
Cole: Falcon Blast!
Lothor: WHAT!
A powerful beam of light hits Lothor, striking him down. Meanwhile, Zurgane and the others converge on the weakend Shane, who is crumpled in a heap on the ground, in preparation for a final blow.
Zurgane: Ive been waiting a long time for this. Goodbye, Red Wind Ranger!
Shane: Keep dreaming, ugly!
Shane gathers the strength to kick Zugrane in the chest, flinging him backwards into Shimazu's arms. Getting to his feet, Shane glares at Choobo, Marah and Kapri, all of whom back off slowly.
Choobo: Oh my..uh..oh dear..Oh, look at the time. Gotta go!
Marah: Yeah, I think I left the oven on
Kapri: Me too.
And with that, the trio disappear through a portal. Cole rushes over to Shane's side and notices he is bleeding.
Cole: Shane, your arm..Are you alright?
Shane: Yeah, its nothing really. I'll be okay.
Lothor stands smirking, as Zurgane and Shimazu rejoin him.
Lothor: Come on, Red Rangers! Do your worst.
Cole: So be it.
Cole helps Shane to his feet, and the Red Rangers are surrounded by their team-mates.
Cole: Alright. You ready to end this
Shane: You got it.
Wild Force: Yeah!
Ninja Rangers: Alright!
The other Wild Force Rangers take out their Crystal Sabers, while the other Ninja Rangers summon the esscence of their Ninja Powers. Meanwhile, Shane and Cole energize their Battlized Finishing Attacks.
Shane & Cole: Lets do it!
All: WILD STORM ENERGY BARRAGE!
All of the Rangers fire off a huge stream of swirling colored energy at Lothor and his minions. The three villains brace for impact and are soon caught in a massive explosion. After the explosion dies down and the smoke clears, the Rangers see the severely beaten Lothor, Zurgane and Shimazu hobble to their feet, stunned to find Lothor even remotely alive.
Lothor: You win this round, Rangers. But I shall return.
With that, Lothor retreats to his ship. Shane and Cole high-five each other as their Ranger friends cheer around them.
Shane: Yeah! We did it!
Cole: With the power of true teamwork.
Back on his ship, Lothor is berating his followers for failing him.
Lothor: I can't beleive it! I give you all one simple task, and you fail miserably!
He then gives Marah, Kapri and Choobo the evil eye.
Lothor: And you..Whats worse is that the three of you are worthless!
Choobo: But..but Master, we..
Lothor: Silence! Sometimes I don't know what's worse. Your cowardice or your stupidity!
Slumping frustratedly into his throne, Lothor lets out a sigh and mutters to himself
Lothor: Why couldn't the Sensei have banished me to the Abyss? My plan to destroy the Rangers using their own may have been ruined, but no matter. When next we meet, the Ninja Rangers won't know what hit them.
The evil ninja laughs maniacally, as well pull away from his ship and return to Earth, where the Wild Force and Ninja Rangers stand together as Princess Shayla descends from the heavens. Wearing her usually glistening white gown and trademark beaming smile, she approaches both Ranger teams. The Wild Force Rangers rejoice at the site of their mentor, while Merrick turns to leave. Cam notices and follows.
Shayla: Thankyou, Ninja Rangers, for your help. Your Ranger powers are well-earned.
Blake and the male Ninjas can do nothing but stare at the princess. Tori realizes this and slaps him over the head.
Blake: What was that for?
Tori: You know what for.
Blake chuckles nervously and rubs his head.
Shayla: As a token of appreciation, I would like to show you something.
Shane: Ahh, ok then.
Five beams of light bathe the Ninja Rangers and the Wild Force, and a flash of white soon follows. When the light fades, both teams find themselves on the Animarium. The Ninja Rangers marvel over the beauty of their lush surroundings.
Tori: Wow, its beautiful.
Dustin: Dude, this place rocks! Sure beats an underground base.
Hunter: You know, Blake, I bet Tori would wanna come here for a date or something.
Blake: A date? No way.
Shane: Where are we?
Shayla: Welcome to the Animarium, Sanctuary of nature and home of the Wild Zords.
Back on Earth, Merrick is boarding his Savage Cycle and preparing to leave when Cam pulls him up.
Cam: Hey, wait!
Merrick: What is it?
Cam: What happened back there?
Merrick: I don't wish to speak of it. It's nothing really.
Cam: You..You love her don't you?
Merrick looks over his shoulder at Cam as he revs the cycle's engine.
Merrick: More than she'll ever know.
Cam watches as Merrick departs, leaving a trail of dust in his wake. The Samurai Ranger smiles, and goes on his way back to Ninja Ops. Meanwhile, back on the Animarium, Shayla explains the whole situation to the Ninja Rangers...
Shayla: With Master Org defeated, I thought the evil threatening this planet may finally have disappeared. But I was completely unaware of the danger your enemies would bring. Upon realizing the danger, I awoke from my slumber and summoned the Wild Force from their normal lives to investigate, but when Lothor's soldiers violated the Animarium I sensed something was not right. So I hid. Now that Lothor has been defeated, the Wild Force can now resume their civilain lives.
Cole and his fellow Wild Force Rangers step up.
Cole: Lothor didnt want us interfering in his plans so he kept us hostage until your friend Cam saved us.
Hunter: Guess that answers our next question.
Shane: Don't mention, bro. We were glad to help.
Cole: We owe you so much.
The Wild Force and Ninja Rangers shake hands.
Cole: The Ranger legacy is in safe hands.
Shane: Thanks, man. You guys were pretty cool yourselves.
Dustin: Yeah, dude. You fought like animals.
The Wild Force are taken aback for a moment, then break into laughter. The Ninja Rangers also chuckle heartily.
Max: I for one take that as a compliment. Nice one.
The happy moment is short-lived, however, as the Animarium's sacred water pool bubbles. Shayla looks into the pool and sees a powerful monster attacking the city. It is blue skinned with tall, spiky hair black goggles and pointy ears, decked out in a flame-emblazened leather jacket. He is running rampant, destorying property with his lance and scaring the civilians. The princess turns to inform the Rangers...
Shayla: Ninja Rangers, there's trouble in the city.
Shane: Well, I guess we'd better get to it.
As the Ninja Rangers get ready to leave, they turn and face the Wild Force. The Wild Force give a thumbs-up, and the Ninja Rangers smile.
Shane: Ready guys?
The Ninja Rangers all nod, and prepare their morphers.
Wind Rangers: Ninja Storm!
Thunder Rangers: Thunder Storm!
Ninja Rangers: Ranger Form!
Back on Earth and fully morphed, the five Ninja Rangers charge into battle once again...
The End
A Power Rangers Ninja Storm /Wild Force Cross-Over
Inspired by/Based on Hurricanger vs. Gao Ranger
Written by AbareHunter - 06/07/05 - 03/04/06
The story begins with the three Wind Rangers, Shane Dustin and Tori, fighting against some Kelzacks near the shore of a beach.
Shane: Take this. Ninja Air Assault!!!
Shane leaps into the air and kicks some Kelzacks in the chest, back-flipping off of them and following up with a slash from his Ninja Sword.
Dustin, meanwhile, is running circles around the Kelzacks with his ninja powers. Moving underground and flinging the enemy away in a flurry of sparks, he finally comes up for air and recovers.
Dustin: I guess you guys didn’t dig my work, huh?
Tori is holding her own against the Kelzacks when she stops for a brief minute.
Tori: Boy, you all look exhausted. Maybe you should cool off for a while. Ninja Water Blast!
She gathers some water in her cupped hands and fires it at the Kelzacks, knocking them off their feet and leaving them sopping wet.
The Rangers continue to give the six remaining Kelzacks a sound thrashing before leaping onto a cliff-head. As the Rangers sheathe their Ninja Swords, the Kelzacks collapse in an explosion.
Shane: Hey Lothor! You’re gonna have to do better than that to beat us!
Suddenly, the Wind Ranger trio are knocked off their feet by a small explosion. As they recover, they each look up to see gloved fists opening to reveal multiple sets of claws.
Shane: Whoa.
Tori: Who are these guys?
Dustin: Anyone get the number of that fist?
The Wind Rangers get to their feet, and we are now shown a very familiar-looking dagger with a large hole in its golden hilt. Next, we see five different coloured helmets…
Red: Blazing Lion!
Yellow: Soaring Eagle!
Black: Iron Bison!
Blue: Surging Shark!
And White: Noble Tiger!
Lion Ranger: Guardians Of The Earth, united we roar! POWER RANGERS!
The five challengers go into their respective poses.
All: WILD FORCE!!!
Shane looks at the Lion Ranger, confused.
Shane: Wild Force?
Lion Ranger: That’s right. We are the Wild Force Rangers, loyal servants of Lothor.
The Wind Rangers freak out and go on the defensive as the Wild Force Rangers raise their weapons and attack. Tori shifts her Ninja Sword into Rifle mode and fires on the charging Tiger Ranger, who leaps towards Tori and slashes her in the chest, proceeding to drag her along the ground before throwing her off the cliff-edge. Tiger Ranger laughs as her dazed opponent plummets to certain doom.
Landing in the ocean below, Tori barely has time to recover before catching sight of Shark Ranger.
Tori: This is not good. Sonic Fin!
Shark Ranger: Not so fast! Blue Shark Fighting Fins!
Spinning around like a tornado, Shark Ranger beats Tori back effortlessly with his counter-attack.
Shark Ranger: Too easy.
Dustin, with his Ninja Sword drawn, is facing off against Eagle Ranger.
Dustin: Wild Force, huh? You look pretty tame to me.
He leaps upward and Eagle Ranger prepares to meet him, brandishing her Yellow Eagle Sword. She slashes Dustin and lands perfectly, while Dustin isn’t so lucky and lands on his head with an almighty thud, screaming in pain from the impact.
Eagle Ranger: And you’re a ninja? Don’t make me laugh.
Dustin: Just wait till you see my bag of tricks.
With that, Dustin disappears in a cloud of yellow smoke and performs his Ninja Ground Strike. As he re-surfaces, Eagle Ranger flies out from the smoke and strikes him down.
Shane is busy going toe-to-toe with Bison Ranger
Shane: So you’re a bison huh? Toro, Toro! HAHAHAHAHA
He performs his Air Assault again but is caught completely off-guard upon being grabbed by the neck and swung to the ground in a daze.
Shane: Talk about being bull-headed. Huh?
He looks up to see Lion Ranger marching towards him. Unsheathing his Ninja Sword, Shane bounds towards the scoffing Lion Ranger.
Shane: Come and get it, tough guy.
Lion Ranger: If you dish it, I can take it.
Shane slices Lion Ranger, who responds by grabbing the Ninja Sword within his Lion Fang weapon…
Lion Ranger: Prepare to feel the wrath of the Blazing Lion!!!
…before flinging him backward by the arm and whooping the Red Wind Ranger’s butt six ways from Sunday. Shane collapses into his weakened team-mates as they pull themselves together.
Dustin: Man, these guys are tough.
Shane: You said it, bro.
Tori: We have to do something.
The Wind Rangers continue to defend themselves when their Wind Morphers sound-off.
Shane: Go for Shane.
Sensei: Rangers, please return to Ninja Ops immediately. Cam has made an important discovery.
Dustin: Oh Sensei, am I glad to hear your voice.
Tori: Hearing you loud and clear, Sensei.
The Wild Force Rangers pull out their empty Crystal Sabers and launch a powerful wave of energy at the Wind Rangers, who scream as the area is engulfed in a blinding white light.
When the brightness fades, the Wind Rangers are gone, and only their uniforms remain. Lion Ranger inspects Shane’s outfit…
Lion Ranger: What the?
while Bison Ranger scans for Dustin…
Bison Ranger: Where’d they go?
and Tiger Ranger looks peeks under Tori’s uniform
Tiger Ranger: Yeah, where’d they go?
Lion Ranger: No matter, they can run all they want, but we’ll find them. And once we do…
We now come to Ninja Ops, where the Wind Rangers are shocked over their defeat.
Dustin: Is anybody else still bugging over those guys?
Tori: We are so not ready for a re-match.
Shane: I can’t believe it. Who do those guys think they are?
Shane slams his fist on the table in anger, only to cringe in pain a moment later from the injury his arm received.
Dustin: Whoa, man. You ok?
Shane: Yeah, bro. It’s just…
Dustin: I know, I know.
Cam enters the room soon after, shocked at the sight of the Rangers..
Cam: Holy…Have a bad day at the zoo, did we?
Shane: You don’t know the half of it.
Cam: Well, if you think that was crazy, you’d better brace yourselves.
Cam sits at his computer and begins typing.
Dustin: You got any dirt on those Wild dudes?
Cam: I can safely say they aren’t working for Lothor.
Shane: Say what? What do you mean?
Sensei: He means that the Wild Force is a Ranger team, just like you.
The Wind Rangers are left completely dumb-founded.
Shane: More Rangers?
Dustin: Besides us?
Tori: You’ve gotta be joking!
Sensei then bounces from key to key on Cam’s keyboard until he brings up a new screen displaying the five Wild Force Rangers in civilian form: Taylor, Cole and Alyssa in the top row and Max and Danny underneath.
Sensei: These Rangers used their powers to protect the Earth from the ruthless Master Org and his followers, who sought to destroy Earth through pollution and destruction.
He then points at each Rangers’ mugshot and reveals a little about them.
Sensei: Cole Evans, the Red Lion Ranger - A young man raised in the jungle, who is eventually recruited to become the new leader of the Wild Force Rangers. Taylor Earhardt, Yellow Eagle Ranger - Former Wild Force leader, she was an air-force pilot before becoming the very first Wild Force Ranger. Max Cooper, Blue Shark Ranger - the youngest of the Wild Force Rangers, Max derives his power from the Surging Shark, and excels in underwater battles. Danny Delgado, Black Bison Ranger – The strongman of the team is usually a very gentle soul, and doesn’t fight unless he has to. And finally, Alyssa Enrile, the White Tiger Ranger – The second-youngest of the team must juggle her Ranger duties with her time as a student at Turtle Cove University.
The screen blanks out, and a look of concern crosses Shane’s face.
Shane: If these guys really are Rangers, then why would they fight us? Unless…
Dustin: I can hear you brain ticking over, bro. You cooking up a plan or what?
Shane: I was just thinking, what if Lothor tricked Wild Force into working for him, like he did to the Thunder Rangers?
Cam: Speaking of the Thunders, I think we'd better get in touch with them and let them know what's going on.
Sensei: Good idea, son.
Meanwhile, on Lothor's ship, Lothor is pleased with the effort the Wild Force has made in defeating the Wind Rangers.
Lothor: Evil Power Rangers..I never thought I'd see the day. Or have them working for me, either.
Lothor laughs gleefully as he observes the Wild Force Rangers, who are awaiting their next orders.
Lothor: If you can't beat 'em, get your own. Now, i can finally do away with those irritating Power Rangers once and for all.
Suddenly, a familiar voice comes from behind him.
Voice: Not if we've got anything to say about it!
And we zoom in to see Cole calling out from behind a force feild. He is clearly upset over the fact that an imposter is masquerading as his alter-ego.
Lothor: And what exactly do you propose to do, Mr. High and Mighty Jungle Boy?
Cole simply glares at Lothor and says nothing.
Lothor: Didn't think so. You see, you don't just wake up one morning and decide to take over the world. There are steps to be taken.
My soldiers stole your Growl Phones from that..what do you call it? Oh, yes "Animarium", and thanks to a little bit of my dark ninja magic, I have created my own set of Shadow Phones.
Lothor chuckles again and the evil Wild Force follow him as he leaves. Cole turns to face his trapped team-mates. Taylor and Danny to his right, and Alyssa and Max to his left.
Alyssa: This is impossible. How could someone else be using our powers?
Cole: I know.
Taylor: Any ideas on how to get us out of here, Jungle Boy? These force feilds have messed up our Growl Phones.
Cole: Never give up, guys. We'll find a way out. One way or another.
Meanwhile, the Thunder Rangers are in a forest area, challenging each other to a friendly sparring match when their morphers sound off.
Hunter: This is Hunter.
Cam: Guys, you won't beleive what's happened.
Blake: Try us.
Cam: Apparently, Lothor has drafted another team of Rangers.
Blake: I didn't think there were anymore Rangers. Besides us, i mean.
Hunter: I wonder who Lothor suckered in this time?
Cam: I don't know what Lothor's done, but these Rangers call themselves the Wild Force. Come to Ninja Ops and we'll fill you in.
Hunter: Wild Force, huh? Alright. We're on our way.
The Thunder Rangers start to head off when they hear a rustling in the trees behind them. Stopping to listen, the Thunders are soon struck down when something comes flying at them from the air and claws them into the ground. Blake and Hunter get to their feet as laughter breaks out and Lion Ranger steps forward along with the rest of his teammates.
Lion Ranger: My ears were burning. You've been talking about us, havent you?
Hunter takes a moment to get a look at the attackers.
Hunter: You must be those Rangers we've been hearing about.
Shark Ranger: And you must be the traitors that Master Lothor told us about.
Blake: We're traitors? Why don't you take a look at yourselves before you start mouthing off about treachery.
Hunter: I don't know who you think you are, but you're way out of your league.
Eagle Ranger: In case you haven't noticed, there's five of us and only two of you.
Hunter: I've had it with these Power Posers. Ready, bro?
Blake: I'm with you.
Blake & Hunter: Thunder Storm! Ranger Form!
Blake and Hunter stand, ready for battle as the Wild Force Rangers charge them, each Ranger drawing out their weapons. Hunter takes a swing at Tiger Ranger using his Thunder Staff, while Tiger Ranger dodges and counters by kneeing Hunter in the gut. Hunter staggers around, winded and vulnerable to attack by Bison Ranger, who headbutts him and leaves him cringing in pain. Tiger and Bison proceed to mock the defenseless Crimson Ranger. Blake, meanwhile, isn't having much better luck against Eagle Ranger, who deals Blake a harsh blow to the head before shoving him back by the chin of his helmet, sending him tumbling down next to Hunter. The Thunder Rangers help each other up and up the ante by summoning their own weapons...
Hunter: Crimson Blaster!
Blake: Navy Antler!
...before rushing into battle again. Blake manages to catch Shark Ranger by the neck with his Navy Antler, and shoves him aside. Hunter, meanwhile, starts using Eagle Ranger as target practice, firing continous rounds from his Crimson Blaster, unaware that Lion Ranger is sneaking up on his brother. Hunter tries to warn Blake upon catching sight of Lion Ranger, but..
Lion Ranger: Lion Blaster, Cannon Mode!
Blake: Huh?
Too late! The next thing Blake feels is the searing pain of being shocked by a surging energy ball. Hunter runs to his brother's aid.
Hunter: You ok, Blake?
Blake: Yeah, I'll survive. These guys really are tough.
Hunter: You said it. Now, what do you say we finish this?
Blake: You read my mind, bro.
Hunter helps Blake to his feet, and the Thunder duo combine their weapons.
Thunder Rangers: Thunder Blaster!
The Wild Force aren't too phased by this.
Tiger Ranger: Well, this is... interesting
Lion Ranger: Okay, we'll play it your way. Falconator!
Bison Ranger: Rhino Shooter!
Tiger Ranger: Deer Clutcher!
Shark Ranger: Spear Of Pardolis!
Eagle Ranger: Armadillo Puck!
Having summoned their weapons, the Wild Force unite them into the..
Wild Force: Jungle Blaster!
Lion Ranger: FIRE!
The Thunder Rangers return fire and clash blasts with the Wild Force. Back and forth the blasts teeter, each Ranger team pushing to overpower the other. Finally, theres a large explosion of energy. When the dust clears, the Wild Force is left standing while the Thunders are on sprawled on the ground. Bruised. Demorphed. Beaten. The Wild Force simply laugh...
Lion Ranger: Two down, three to go
...before disappearing again. The Thunder Rangers get up, looking somewhat peeved.
Hunter: Man, that was just brutal.
Blake: Tell me about it, bro. Hey, we'd better meet up with the others, they're probably waiting for us.
Hunter: Yeah, you're right. Let's go.
And with that, the Thunder Rangers streak off towards Ninja Ops. Back on Lothor's ship, the true, captive Wild Force Rangers dont seem to be having much luck escaping from there confines. Max is nursing a sore shoulder, most likely having tried to ram his way out of the force field.
Taylor: Told you it wouldn't work.
Max: Well, you cant blame a guy for trying, huh?
Cole: I agree. Its better than sitting around here, but I don't know what else we can do. I mean, those imposters will destory the planet soon..
Cole bows his head, awaiting his fate when he hears footsteps. Looking up, he expects to see Lothor but is instead met with a shiny green boot. The whisper of a friendly voice breaks the silence.
Voice: Need a hand?
Meanwhile, back on the Earth, the evil Wild Force Rangers are doing battle with another familiar face. That of Merrick. The evil Wild Force are taunting him as he resists fighting them.
Merrick: I don't understand why we're fighting. This is madness. You're heroes, remember?
Lion Ranger: Heroes? HA! You wish.
Merrick: What did you say?
Tiger Ranger: You heard.
Lion Ranger: Are you sure you don't want to help us, Merrick? You were evil once, and who knows, you might learn to like it again.
Merrick: I'll never give into evil again, and I know you wouldn't either.
Eagle Ranger: Pretty ironic for someone who used to be a freaky-looking Org.
Lion Ranger: If you won't join us willingly, we have ways of forcing you. Maybe we should pay Princess Shayla another visit.
Shocked and angered, Merrick finally snaps..
Merrick: I don't know whats come over you, and as much as I regret what I'm about to do, you leave me no choice! PREPARE YOURSELVES!
He reaches for his Lunar Caller and opens it, with a sudden fury in his eyes.
Merrick: WILD ACCESS!
In a blaze of light, Merrick is transformed into the Lunar Wolf Ranger. Flashing the claws from his gloves, he tenses up, ready for a battle.
Merrick: First you abuse the powers of the ancient warriors, using them for evil. And now you dare to harm the princess? I will not stand for this. Now, you face the Howling Wolf.
Charging forward, Merrick thrashes at the Wild Force with all his might. Then, whipping out his Lunar Cue, he switches it to Sniper Mode and blasts the evil Wild Force while they attempt to recover. Dazed from the beating, the Wild Force band together and gang up on him, taking him down slowly. Merrick blocks a kick from Tiger Ranger, only to be caught off guard as Bison Ranger delivers a crush blow to his ribs. Lion Ranger sprints towards Merrick, but the pure-hearted Wolf Ranger, fighting through his pain, manages a dodge at the last minute and grabs for Lion Ranger. As Merrick attempts to throw him over his head, Lion Ranger reverses the move and Merrick ends up face first on the ground.
Lion Ranger: Let's end this...Jungle Sword!
As the Wild Force combine their usual weapons and lift the sword up into the air, the blade fills up with energy.
Lion Ranger: SAVAGE SLASH!
The sword comes down, as the powerful wave of light tears through Merrick's body, leaving him seriously injured and in agony. As Merrick forces himself up and catches his breath, Lion Ranger claps his hands, chuckling.
Lion Ranger: Well, old friend, that was a right pretty display. Such a shame your bark is worse than your bite. I'm astonished you can still get to your feet in your condition.
Merrick: I..won't allow you...to harm...the..princess...
Firmly clutching his weapon, Merrick summons his Animal Crystals and, conjuring up a green square of light that binds the evil Wild Force, prepares his finishing attack.
Merrick: Laser Pool!
Placing his Animal Crystals on the square, Merrick takes careful aim as the Wild Force struggle to break free.
Lion Ranger: What the!
Shark Ranger: I can't move!
Bison Ranger: How the heck?
Tiger Ranger: We'll get you for this.
Eagle Ranger: Well, what're you waiting for? Take your best shot!
In response, Merrick shifts his grip on the Lunar Cue...
Merrick: Gladly!
...and fires. The Animal Crystals blast towards the Wild Force and strike them down, just as the Thunder Rangers arrive on the scene.
Hunter: So, there's another one?
Blake: I say we get him. Who knows what he'll do.
Hunter: Wait, bro. Check it out. What are they doing?
As the Thunders watch carefully, they see the remnants of an explosion die down, and Merrick calls through to the Wild Force from the cloud of smoke.
Merrick: It's over! Your battle is lost!
The Wild Force rise and draw their Crystal Sabers. As their Animal Crystals begin to glow, the Rangers insert them into their Sabers.
Lion Ranger: On the contrary Silver Wolf Ranger, the real battle is only just beggining!
All: Wild Zords, descend!
Back on Lothor's ship, we see that Cam, having reached and infiltrated Lothor's ship in his DragonForce Vehicle, has apparently been caught out trying to free the good Wild Force from their prison. Cornered by the Kelzac Furies, Cam keeps his guard up.
Cam: Looks like quite the welcoming commitee. Too bad I can't stay and chat.
Using his Samurai Saber, Cam slashes through the gauntlet of Kelzacks.
Cam: Hang on guys, I'll have you out of here in a second.
Cole: Please hurry.
As he reaches the force-field controls, Cam is suddenly dogpiled by hordes of Kelzacks. After a breif struggle, he manages to fling them off and stabs the controls with his weapon.
The energy feilds around the Wild Force power down, as the Rangers breathe sighs of releif.
Max: Alright. Way to go!
Allysa: Thankyou ever so much.
Cole: We owe you our freedom.
Taylor: Thanks.
Cam: Let's celebrate later. My friends need help back on Earth. And you guys need to clear your names somehow.
Cole: Don't worry. You do your part, we'll do ours.
Cam: Great. Now, lets get out of here before Lothor realizes what happened.
Meanwhile, the evil Wild Force Rangers are fighting against Merrick's Predazord within the Wild Force Megazord, with Merrick on the losing end.
Lion Ranger: This is far too easy. I thought your Zords would be a challenge, Merrick.
Merrick: I don't beleive it. How can the Megazord be this strong? Predazord, don't fail me now.
Lion Ranger: Fin Blade!
The Megazord summons it's Fin Blade weapon as the Predazord slowly hobbles up onto its feet. As the Wild Force Megazord moves in for the kill, the Thunder Rangers, still watching in complete amazement, are surprised when the Wind Rangers show up.
Hunter: Shane? What're you doing here? Where have you been?
Shane: I was about to ask you the same thing.
Hunter: We were ambushed by the Wild Force on our way to Ninja Ops. What's your story?
Dustin: Sensei wanted us to go looking for any sign of these dudes.
Blake: Wait, where's Cam? Shouldn't he be with you?
Tori: Sensei sent him on an important mission. We asked him what it was, but he wouldn't say. Only that it was important.
Hunter: Well, I say we get in there.
Shane: Wait, we shouldnt hurt them.
Dustin: Bro, I dont know about you, but the dislocated shoulder and countless bruises on my face are protesting as you speak.
Tori: Yeah, I don't see why you're holding back.
Shane: You heard what Sensei said, they're Rangers.. just like us!
Hunter: Im normally all for petty bickering but what's say we just put an end to this right now? You ready, Blake?
Blake: Way ahead of you, bro.
Hunter and Blake detach their morphers and call for their Zords
Hunter: Crimson Insectizord!
Blake: Navy Beetlezord!
And the two Zords emerge, ready and waiting for their pilots.
Shane: Oh, this is great. Ninja Zords!
The Wind Rangers leap into their Zords and head towards the battle aswell.
Shane: Well, guys, you ready for this?
Tori: Ready as I'll ever be
Dustin: Ditto
The Wind Rangers get a good look at the Wild Force Megazord as the Predazord charges forward, preparing to perform its Phantom Revolver attack. Back and forth, Merrick strikes continuously, dazing the Megazord and shaking the evil Wild Force from within their cockpit.
Dustin: Woah! Look at that thing!
Tori: Somebody call a plastic surgeon
Shane: You know what they say: The bigger they are...
Lion Ranger: Some uninvited guests? Well, that will soon be rectified.
Recovering from its beating, the WF Megazord spots Dustin's Lion Zord and swats it backwards, the Zord crashing to the ground after sailing through the cool air.
Dustin: The more damage they do. Man, my head's gonna be sore for a month.
Meanwhile, the Crimson Insectizord adds further injury by barraging the WF Megazord with laster blasts from its powerful cannons, while Shane hovers around the WF Megazord head, literally heating things up with his Hawk Zord's Fire Strike attack.
Shane: Hot enough for ya?
Hunter: Hey Blake, what's say we send these animals back to the wild?
Blake: Right.
Hunter: Thunder Megazord formation!
The two Thunder Zords combine into their Megazord form, and prepares to attack. Trading blow after vicious blow, The Thunder Megazord seems to be winning. Until...
Shark Ranger: We need re-enforcements
Tiger Ranger: Elephant Zord!
Tiger Ranger replaces her Tiger Crystal with the Elephant one, and the Elephant Zord stampedes into battle. The Thunder Megazord stumbles out of the way as its pilots look on in total shock.
Hunter: Another Zord?
Blake: No way!
Dustin catches up to his teammates as they close in around the Wild Force Megazord.
Dustin: I'm up for some payback. Lion Tornado Blast
The Lion Zord's mane spins around, creating a mini-typhoon and hurling chunks of debris at the Megazord.
Lion Ranger: Accursed cat. Sword and Sheild Mode!
The Elephant splits into its Sword and Sheild Mode, and the Wild Force lash out at the Ninja Zords. The Wind Rangers go on the defensive and do their best to keep out of harm's way, narrowly avoiding each attack.
Shane: Yikes! That was close.
Tori: Tell me about it, I dont wanna end up as Dolphin Sushi.
Dustin: Whoa, dude!
Turning their attention to the Thunder Rangers again, the Wild Force begin crippling the Megazord with savage slashes from its Pachyderm Crusher attack. Sustaining heavy damages, the Thunder Megazord slumps to the ground as the Wild Force moves into finish off Hunter and Blake.
Lion Ranger: Let's squash this bug.
Hunter: Not if we have anything to say about it. Power Discs, lock and drop!
As the Pachyderm Sword The Thunder Rangers insert their Power Discs into the Megazord and seconds later, the Megazord's chest opens up and expels Power Sphere 4.
Thunder Rangers: Spin Blade!
Blocking the WF Megazord's final blow, the Thunder Rangers shove their attacker backwards and proceed to deliver a mighty slash with their weapon, piercing the Shark Zord's armour. As the battle rages, Cam and the real Wild Force are running speedily towards the battleground. Princess Shayla, who had previously hidden from Lothor's troops when they invaded, watches them from the Animaria via her reflecting pool and wishes them luck.
Taylor: I hope we're not too late.
Max: We've gotta get our Zords back
Back on the battlefield....
Shane: Let's lend a hand, guys. Form the Megazord!
Tori: Right!
Dustin: Yeah!
The Storm Megazord marches in and struggles against the Wild Force Megazord, getting in a few good attacks with before being hoisted up by the Wild Force and thrown to the wayside. The Wind Rangers are shaken by the fierce impact.
Dustin: Oh man! Talk about a rough ride.
Tori: These guys are tough.
Shane: Well, we're tougher! After all, one has the strength of three, right?
The other Wind Rangers nod in agreement.
Wind Rangers: Lightning Megazord!
The Storm Megazord sheds it bulky armour as Lightning Mode is engaged. Watching from the Wild Force Megazord cockpit, Lion Ranger seems completely unphased.
Lion Ranger: You really think dropping a few pounds is going to help you win? Honestly, why can't you people just stay down?
Shane: What can I say? We're slow learners.
As the real Wild Force approach a nearby cliffedge, Alyssa is completely stunned.
Alyssa: Oh no! They've got my Zords! NO!!!
Cole: Don't worry, Alyssa. We'll get our Zords back.
Cam: It looks like the others are in bigger trouble than I thought. Well, my friends, I'll leave you to it then.
Cole: Hey, Cam?
Cam: Yeah?
Cole extends his hand...
Cole: Thanks for your help
Cam: Don't mention it.
...and Cam takes it as the pair shake hands. With that, Cam leaves to help his team-mates.
Cam: Shane? Tori? Dustin? Please come in, anyone.
Shane: Cam?
Cam: Who else would it be?
Dustin: Dude, what happened with you?
Cam is suddenly bought to a stop as Lothor himself appears infont of him through a portal, grinning menacingly.
Cam: No time to explain, guys. It seems my mission hasn't finished just yet
And with that, he cuts out off the communication. As the Battle of the Megazord's continues, thw Wild Force and Lightning Megazord are exchanging blows with their weapons, gashing deeply into each other. The Lightning Megazord stabs into the Wild Force Megazord's leg, and the Wild Force Megazord returns the favour by slicing the Lightning Megazord across the face with its Fin Blade, followed by a barrage of punches from its Tiger Fury attack. As the Wild Force Megazord moves to deliver another blow, the Lightning Megazord catches its arm, knocks it off-balance and delivers a powerful spin-kick just a split second before the 60-second time limit expires and the Lightning Megazord reverts to the Storm Megazord.
Shane: Alright, we got 'em. Ready guys?
Dustin: You know it, dude.
Tori: Yeah.
Shane: Power discs, lock and drop!
The Wind Rangers insert their Power Discs into their Megazord, and soon Power Sphere 1 is unveiled, opening up to reveal the...
Wind Rangers: Serpent Sword!
Back on the cliff-edge, the real Wild Force are watching helplessly as their own Megazord battles for the forces of evil.
Max: This is horrible. What're we gonna do?
Danny: Any plans?
Cole: That was the good thing being trapped for so long. It gave me time to think of one. Everybody got their Animal Crystals?
The other Rangers produce their Crystals and nod.
Cole: Alright. Follow my lead.
Cole holds his Animal Crystals in the sky, and the other Rangers do the same
Cole: Alright, now close your eyes and concentrate..Hard.
Cole's team-mates do as he asks, and shortly after, the Animal Crystals begin to glow. Back on the battlefield, the Storm Megazord prepares to deliver the final blow and slashes downward, striking the Wild Force Megazord. However, instead of toppling defeatedly, the Wild Force Megazord begins to glow and buckle uncontrollably. Inside the Wild Force cockpit, the evil Wild Force Rangers are thrown about as their surroundings spark up and lightning fills the room.
Lion Ranger: YARRGH! What's happening?
Bison Ranger: Beats me.
Eagle Ranger: NO! The Megazord formation is breaking up!
On the cliffedge, the Wild Force are still concentrating, and their Animal Crystals glowing more intensely than ever. As the Wild Force Megazord continues to twitch and writhe, it is finally broken into its five separate Zord components and the evil Wild Force are violently ejected, much to the surprise of the Wind Rangers.
Shane: That really just happened, right?
Dustin: No way. Did we do that?
Tori: I..I don't think so.
The good Wild Force cheer as their Zords are back under their control again. Meanwhile, Cam and Lothor confront each other.
Lothor: Well, Green Samurai Ranger, we meet again.
Cam: What do you want, Lothor?
Lothor: Just to extend my congratulations to you.
Cam: Me? What do I have to do with this?
Lothor: Come, now. I'm about to become supreme ruler of the universe, and I have you to thank for it. After all, you made me, remember?
Cam: What?
Lothor: Don't think I don't remember that day at the Wind Ninja Academy, when you prevented me from attaining the power within that amulet of yours.
Angered, Cam faces down Lothor.
Cam: I..I remember. And it sickens me to know that I'm related to you.
Lothor: Well, I'm here now. So what're you gonna do about it...Nephew?
Cam: Just wait and see..Super Samurai Mode!
Cam sheds his armour and rotates his visor from its usual star design, to the Super Samurai's flame design, and prepares to battle his uncle. Lothor starts hurling powerful energy blasts, but Cam effortlessly dodges. Drawing out his Samurai Saber, Cam charges towards Lothor, deflecting the dark ninja's energy blasts. Engaging in close combat, Cam fights well against Lothor, slahshing with his Saber and producing seemingly endless punches and kicks. As Cam peforms flips foward to kick the disoriented Lothor, he is blasted in mid-air. Despite the searing pain in his body, he forces himself up to see Lothor surrounded by the evil Wild Force Rangers. The Wind and Thunder Rangers join Cam shortly after.
Shane: Well, well, look what the cat dragged in.
Lothor: This is the last time you interfere with my affairs, Rangers.
Dustin: Dude, its the big cheese himself
Cam: You noticed that, huh?
Shane: I don't get it, Lothor. Just how did you get your own Ranger team?
Hunter: Hey, yeah. I bet you tricked them, like you did to Blake and I.
Suddenly, the Lion Ranger steps forward and speaks, but his voice is different.
Lion Ranger: Not quite, Crimson Ranger. I beleive I can answer your question for you. Power down!
The Lion Ranger costume dissolves to reveal...Zurgane.
Ninja Rangers: ZURGANE???
Zurgane: Yes, it is I. Zurgane!
The other Wild Force costumes dissolve to reveal Choobo, Marah, Kapri and Shimazu. They all chuckle as the Ninja Rangers stare, completely astounded.
Shane: Woah, dude! No way! How?
Tori: Ooh, I think I'm gonna be sick.
Choobo: Pay attention and we'll show you.
Suddenly, a voice booms out from behind them.
Voice: HOLD IT RIGHT THERE!
Everyone looks up to see Cole, flanked by his team-mates. He calls out to Zurgane...
Cole: I'll only say this once. Give up your powers or face us.
Lothor laughs, along with Zurgane and his troops.
Lothor: Not a chance, Jungle Boy. I've got the whole Ranger package right where I want you. Once you and your friends are disposed of, then the world shall be mine for the taking and there won't be a thing you can do to stop me!
Cole: Then you leave us no choice.
Cole takes out his Growl Phone and opens it.
Cole: Are you ready, guys?
Max: Yeah!
Taylor: You bet I am
Danny: Of course
Alyssa: Sure thing
All: WILD ACESS!
Activating their Growl Phones, Cole and the others don their Wild Force Ranger outfits as Zurgane shows off his Shadow Phone. The Shadow Phones are built exactly like the Growl Phone, except they are black with sivler highlights.
Zurgane: Bring it on. Ready?
Zurgane's comrades nod and prepare their Growl Phones.
Evil Wild Force: SHADOW ACCESS!
The five villains are engulfed in Ranger colored mist and when it clears, the group are in their Wild Force outfits. In addition to Zurgane posing as Lion Ranger, Choobo becomes Shark Ranger, Shimazu is masquerading as Bison Ranger, Marah is Tiger Ranger and Kapri is the Eagle Ranger. Upon morphing Zurgane cries out...
Zurgane: Destoryers of the Earth! Shadow Force!
The real Wild Force leap down to confront their counterparts.
Cole: Blazing Lion!
Taylor: Soaring Eagle!
Max: Surging Shark!
Danny: Iron Bison!
Alyssa: Noble Tiger!
Merrick rushes over to join his teammates...
Merrick: Howling Wolf!
Cole: Guardians of the Earth, united we roar! POWER RANGERS!
Wild Force: WILD FORCE!
The Ninja Rangers follow suite and perform their own roll call
Shane: Red Ranger! Power Of Air!
Tori: Blue Ranger! Power Of Water!
Dustin: Yellow Ranger! Power Of Earth!
Hunter: Crimson Ranger! Power Of Thunder!
Blake: Navy Ranger! Power Of Thunder!
Cam: Green Ranger! Power Of The Samurai!
Ninja Rangers: NINJA STORM!
All twelve Rangers stand, ready for battle, and cry out.
All: POWER RANGERS!!!
The Rangers charge into battle against the evil Wild Force. Shane and Cole double-team Zurgane, blasting at him with their weapons. Zurgane deflects the lasers and starts bashing the pair using his Lion Fang. Managing to escape Zurgane's grasp, the two Red Rangers return the favour and strike back: Cole with his own Lion Fang, and Shane using his Ninja Sword. Zurgane takes their attacks and counters Shane with a fierce barrage of claw attacks. Cole manages to separate the two, and follows up by firing an energy blast from his Crystal Saber. Shane steps in and topples Zurgane with his Air Assault, kicking him in the face. Kapri, meanwhile, is being chased down by Hunter and Blake on their Tsumani Cycles. They fire at her, and she retaliates by throwing Soaring Darts, but to no avail. Blake and Hunter fire again, knocking Kapri clean off her feet and face down into the dirt. She recovers and tries to escape, only to run into...
Taylor: Going somewhere?
Kapri: Well, I was, but you're kind of in the way.
Kapri turns to run the other way, but Dustin appears infront of her.
Dustin: Not so fast there, girl. I got a bone to pick with you. Lion Hammer!
Dustin slams his hammer down, sending a shockwave through the ground that send Kapri tumbling into the arms of Taylor who proceeds to throw her aside and slash Kapri with her Eagle Sword. Again sprawled on the ground, Kapri looks an her gloved hand and grumbles.
Kapri: Oww...I think I broke a nail.
Choobo has his hands tied against Cam and Merrick. Choobo charges forward, brandishing his Fighting Fins, and slams into Cam, pushing him backwards and trying to shove him over the cliffedge. Cam gains his footing and punches Choobo in the face, then slashing him with his Samurai Saber. While dazed, Choobo notices a blur heading towards him, which turns out to be Merrick, running on all fours. He leaps up and somersaults over Choobo's head, grabbing it in the process, and throws him towards the cliff-edge. Max emerges from the water, striking Choobo and playfully waving as Choobo tumbles down into the ocean.
Max: Happy landings.
Danny, Blake and Hunter join forces against Shimazu, who summons a squadron of Wolfblades to help him out. Blake and Hunter deal with the Wolfblades while Danny takes on Shimazu. The pair charge at each other and proceed to tackle each other down in a show of brute force, exchanging brutal blows with one another. Blake and Hunter stand back to back as the Wolfblade circle them. Hunter boosts Blake up over the Wolfblades as Blake summons his Thunder Blade in mid-air, slashing at a group of the Wolfblades as he lands. Hunter flawlessy shoots down his opponents. Shimazu and Danny are still going at it, with Shimazu holding the advantage. Having summoned his Black Bison Ax, he moves to strike Danny, but Danny manages to grab the Ax's blade in between his hands and after a breif struggle, boots Shimazu off of him.
Alyssa, Tori and Marah square off as well...
Tori: I never could picture you as a Ranger, even an evil one.
Marah: White seems to look good on me. Would've prefered pink but hey, what can you do?
Alyssa: Let's go, Tori.
Tori: Alright.
Tori and Alyssa attack, brandishing their weapons, and Marah does the same after a breif panic attack. Unfortunately, Marah doesnt fair quite as well as the others. After Alyssa disarms her and smacks her across the face with her White Tiger Baton, Marah is then swept off her feet by Tori's Water Blast, the force of which causes her to de-morph.
Tori: Looks like you're all washed up, Marah.
Tori and Alyssa high-five each other. As Marah recovers and tries to get up, Alyssa leaps on top of her and proceeds to scratch the hapless vilainess across the face. As the evil Wild Force regroup, Marah gets a look at her reflection in Kapri's visor and freaks out, shocked at the state of herself. Cam steps up, powers up to Super Samurai Mode again and delivers an energized slash from his saber, while Merrick traps the villains in his Laser Pool grid and fires off his Animal Crystals. Both attacks strike together, leaving Zurgane and co. weakened severely. As both good Ranger teams gather, Shane and Cole both look at each other, nod, and call out...
Shane & Cole: Let's combine our weapons.
Ninja Rangers: Alright!
Wild Force: Yeah!
The Wild Force combine their weapons into the Jungle Sword, and perform the Savage Slash attack. As the powerful, energized blade swoops down upon the evil Wild Force, the impact de-morphs the team and as they tumble to the ground, their Shadow Phones are left exposed. The Ninja Rangers unite their weapons and form the Thunderstorm Cannon, and fire it. As Zurgane and his team recover and scramble to retrieve their phones, the Thunderstorm Cannon's energy blast strikes the phones, incinerating them. As Zurgane and his team recover and scramble to retrieve their phones, the Thunderstorm Cannon's energy blast strikes the phones, incinerating them. Zurgane and Shimazu arise, grumbling furiously while Choobo, Marah and Kapri cower in fear.
Zurgane: CURSE YOU!
Shane and Cole step forward, standing side-by-side, when Shane playfully nudges Cole.
Shane: You want to do the honors?
Cole: You bet.
Cole detaches his belt buckle and raises it above his head.
Cole:Animarium Armour!
Shane: Lightning Morpher!
With that, the two Red Rangers find themselves endowed with their..
Shane & Cole: Battlizer Armour!
The villains stand in fear, when Lothor steps in front of them, perturbed.
Lothor: Must I do everything myself?
Lothor charges toward the Red Rangers and trades blows with them. Shane blocks Lothor's punch with his gauntlet and knocks the evil ninja backwards, following up with a flurry of attacks. The other Rangers attempt to rush Lothor while he is dazed, but he manages to recover and launches powerful bolts of lightning that scatter the Rangers, leaving them writhing in pain. Returning his attention to the Red Rangers, he looks up to see Shane hovering in the air, preparing to swoop down upon him. He fires more lightning at Shane and knocks him out of the sky.With Lothor's attention diverted momentarily, Cole uses this time to give the evil Space Ninja a surprise of his own.
Cole: Falcon Blast!
Lothor: WHAT!
A powerful beam of light hits Lothor, striking him down. Meanwhile, Zurgane and the others converge on the weakend Shane, who is crumpled in a heap on the ground, in preparation for a final blow.
Zurgane: Ive been waiting a long time for this. Goodbye, Red Wind Ranger!
Shane: Keep dreaming, ugly!
Shane gathers the strength to kick Zugrane in the chest, flinging him backwards into Shimazu's arms. Getting to his feet, Shane glares at Choobo, Marah and Kapri, all of whom back off slowly.
Choobo: Oh my..uh..oh dear..Oh, look at the time. Gotta go!
Marah: Yeah, I think I left the oven on
Kapri: Me too.
And with that, the trio disappear through a portal. Cole rushes over to Shane's side and notices he is bleeding.
Cole: Shane, your arm..Are you alright?
Shane: Yeah, its nothing really. I'll be okay.
Lothor stands smirking, as Zurgane and Shimazu rejoin him.
Lothor: Come on, Red Rangers! Do your worst.
Cole: So be it.
Cole helps Shane to his feet, and the Red Rangers are surrounded by their team-mates.
Cole: Alright. You ready to end this
Shane: You got it.
Wild Force: Yeah!
Ninja Rangers: Alright!
The other Wild Force Rangers take out their Crystal Sabers, while the other Ninja Rangers summon the esscence of their Ninja Powers. Meanwhile, Shane and Cole energize their Battlized Finishing Attacks.
Shane & Cole: Lets do it!
All: WILD STORM ENERGY BARRAGE!
All of the Rangers fire off a huge stream of swirling colored energy at Lothor and his minions. The three villains brace for impact and are soon caught in a massive explosion. After the explosion dies down and the smoke clears, the Rangers see the severely beaten Lothor, Zurgane and Shimazu hobble to their feet, stunned to find Lothor even remotely alive.
Lothor: You win this round, Rangers. But I shall return.
With that, Lothor retreats to his ship. Shane and Cole high-five each other as their Ranger friends cheer around them.
Shane: Yeah! We did it!
Cole: With the power of true teamwork.
Back on his ship, Lothor is berating his followers for failing him.
Lothor: I can't beleive it! I give you all one simple task, and you fail miserably!
He then gives Marah, Kapri and Choobo the evil eye.
Lothor: And you..Whats worse is that the three of you are worthless!
Choobo: But..but Master, we..
Lothor: Silence! Sometimes I don't know what's worse. Your cowardice or your stupidity!
Slumping frustratedly into his throne, Lothor lets out a sigh and mutters to himself
Lothor: Why couldn't the Sensei have banished me to the Abyss? My plan to destroy the Rangers using their own may have been ruined, but no matter. When next we meet, the Ninja Rangers won't know what hit them.
The evil ninja laughs maniacally, as well pull away from his ship and return to Earth, where the Wild Force and Ninja Rangers stand together as Princess Shayla descends from the heavens. Wearing her usually glistening white gown and trademark beaming smile, she approaches both Ranger teams. The Wild Force Rangers rejoice at the site of their mentor, while Merrick turns to leave. Cam notices and follows.
Shayla: Thankyou, Ninja Rangers, for your help. Your Ranger powers are well-earned.
Blake and the male Ninjas can do nothing but stare at the princess. Tori realizes this and slaps him over the head.
Blake: What was that for?
Tori: You know what for.
Blake chuckles nervously and rubs his head.
Shayla: As a token of appreciation, I would like to show you something.
Shane: Ahh, ok then.
Five beams of light bathe the Ninja Rangers and the Wild Force, and a flash of white soon follows. When the light fades, both teams find themselves on the Animarium. The Ninja Rangers marvel over the beauty of their lush surroundings.
Tori: Wow, its beautiful.
Dustin: Dude, this place rocks! Sure beats an underground base.
Hunter: You know, Blake, I bet Tori would wanna come here for a date or something.
Blake: A date? No way.
Shane: Where are we?
Shayla: Welcome to the Animarium, Sanctuary of nature and home of the Wild Zords.
Back on Earth, Merrick is boarding his Savage Cycle and preparing to leave when Cam pulls him up.
Cam: Hey, wait!
Merrick: What is it?
Cam: What happened back there?
Merrick: I don't wish to speak of it. It's nothing really.
Cam: You..You love her don't you?
Merrick looks over his shoulder at Cam as he revs the cycle's engine.
Merrick: More than she'll ever know.
Cam watches as Merrick departs, leaving a trail of dust in his wake. The Samurai Ranger smiles, and goes on his way back to Ninja Ops. Meanwhile, back on the Animarium, Shayla explains the whole situation to the Ninja Rangers...
Shayla: With Master Org defeated, I thought the evil threatening this planet may finally have disappeared. But I was completely unaware of the danger your enemies would bring. Upon realizing the danger, I awoke from my slumber and summoned the Wild Force from their normal lives to investigate, but when Lothor's soldiers violated the Animarium I sensed something was not right. So I hid. Now that Lothor has been defeated, the Wild Force can now resume their civilain lives.
Cole and his fellow Wild Force Rangers step up.
Cole: Lothor didnt want us interfering in his plans so he kept us hostage until your friend Cam saved us.
Hunter: Guess that answers our next question.
Shane: Don't mention, bro. We were glad to help.
Cole: We owe you so much.
The Wild Force and Ninja Rangers shake hands.
Cole: The Ranger legacy is in safe hands.
Shane: Thanks, man. You guys were pretty cool yourselves.
Dustin: Yeah, dude. You fought like animals.
The Wild Force are taken aback for a moment, then break into laughter. The Ninja Rangers also chuckle heartily.
Max: I for one take that as a compliment. Nice one.
The happy moment is short-lived, however, as the Animarium's sacred water pool bubbles. Shayla looks into the pool and sees a powerful monster attacking the city. It is blue skinned with tall, spiky hair black goggles and pointy ears, decked out in a flame-emblazened leather jacket. He is running rampant, destorying property with his lance and scaring the civilians. The princess turns to inform the Rangers...
Shayla: Ninja Rangers, there's trouble in the city.
Shane: Well, I guess we'd better get to it.
As the Ninja Rangers get ready to leave, they turn and face the Wild Force. The Wild Force give a thumbs-up, and the Ninja Rangers smile.
Shane: Ready guys?
The Ninja Rangers all nod, and prepare their morphers.
Wind Rangers: Ninja Storm!
Thunder Rangers: Thunder Storm!
Ninja Rangers: Ranger Form!
Back on Earth and fully morphed, the five Ninja Rangers charge into battle once again...
The End
