Previous Chapter Next Chapter

Author's Note: As I promised, this chapter would spend more time focusing on the Wild Force side of things. Also, I did submit this with it not being proofread, as I am a bit impatient at times so you'll have to excuse any grammer errors.:twilightsheepish:

Equus/Future Earth: 5026

"Okay now... Where is he...?" One lone mare murmured to herself, holding a flashlight in her hands as she wandered the docksides of Vanhoover, AKA Equestia's windiest city. This mare was pure white in skin color, with pale colored eyes and seemingly gust blown hair that was both cyanish grey and an emerald greenish color. "Figures, get sent out to find an Org in the middle of the night at the docksides, where who knows what lurks in the shadows... P-Probably some stallion w-who thinks he can get lucky with me... and what do I find? Absolutely nothing!" The mare, known as Vapor Trail whispered to herself, trying not to attract any attention whatsoever. Suddenly, in-between two giant metal shipping containers, she saw something out of the corner of her eye dart in-between them. Vapor Trail rushed after the shadow and kept following it, no matter which way it went. Then, it had vanished, almost as if the darkness had swallowed it up.

"O-Okay... Now that was just weird. I know Sky would probably tease me for not being able to catch a simple shadow, but..." Vapor murmured to herself before noting the moon. Luna's moon was especially bright tonight, and seemed even larger than normal. Then, she saw the shadowy figure once again, leap from the top of one container to the top of another before vanishing once more. Now Vapor was starting to get really scared. On pure instinct, she reached for her Growl Phone and dialed a number.

"L-Lightning... I-I might need your help down here. I'm not alone, I can feel it." Vapor said into the phone, and another mare's voice, one with a haughty tone to it answered.

"Well of COURSE you're not alone you dumbo!" Lightning Dust snapped. "There's a freaking damned Org on the loose! The Princess sent you after it, and you're going to get it! I swear, my brother (Here she referred to her older brother and Vapor's best friend, and perhaps maybe more, Sky Stinger.) would have been a better pick for a Ranger than you, both you and Sunburst are such worrywarts!"

"I-I'm not joking around here, there's something powerful here, and I don't think it's the Org the Princess sent me after!" Vapor yelled in fear and Lightning's jaw dropped in shock. Vapor sounded genuinely terrified out of her mind. With a resigned sigh after a few moments of hesitation, Lightning responded.

"Alright, I'll get over there as fast as I can, but remember this, you and I are going after the Org I'M supposed to be hunting after this, understand?" Lightning growled and Vapor squeaked out a "Y-Yes." before hanging up and thinking to herself "Lightning, please get over here quick. Please... Wait, what's that?"

At about that moment she heard a very eerie noise, it sounded like a flute being played. It was very haunting, and yet in some ways rather calming as well. Vapor didn't honestly know which of the feelings she was feeling at that very moment. Torn between the two, she decided to be on the safe side.

"Legendary Wild Access!" Vapor shouted and was transformed, with a purple flash of energy, into a ranger, wearing a costume much like Sunset's, but with a few differences. For one thing, the most obvious difference was that it was a purple color, and instead of a phoenix's head, the helmet was styled after a sperm whale, and instead of a setting sun on her right breast, there was Vapor Trail's Cutie Mark of a shooting star.

"Come out, show yourself!" Vapor shouted, feeling much more confident now that she was morphed. And then the being finally decided to show itself. Seemingly leaping from the moon itself was a dark figure with a wolfish face, two glowing yellow eyes that seemed to pierce right through your very soul and had one pure black horn. The figure landed almost silently directly in front of Vapor, who was frozen in fear. She knew what the one horn meant. Here, directly in front of her was a Duke Org, the ones who led the Orgs into battle and only one rank below the Org Generals.

"A young mare such as yourself shouldn't be out here alone at this time of night, who knows what you might run into." The Duke Org said in a surprisingly friendly way. Nervously, Vapor reached for her Crystal Saber and pointed it at the Duke Org.

"I'm not afraid of you!" Vapor yelled, though her voice betrayed her feelings.

"Now now, is that any way to treat a friend?" The Duke Org questioned even as he rested a black crescent moon like blade on his left shoulder. "You and I... We're both actually on the same side, believe it or not."

Vapor was stunned beyond words. An Org, a Duke Org at that, saying that they were both on the exact same side? It didn't make sense!

"...Of course, knowing how you ponies treat anything that's different than you... Well, I wouldn't be surprised to find out you don't believe a word I'm saying. Hell, 3,000 years ago, I wouldn't have believed a word I was saying. Well, not before HIM anyways..." The Duke Org trailed off, seemingly lost in his own memories. "But never mind that. There's an Org on the loose, and I don't mean me. I intend to hunt him down. It might be... prudent for us to work together on this."

Now Vapor was doubly stunned. A Duke Org, asking for her help to hunt down one of his own kind? This had to be a trick! But before Vapor could consider his words any further, both she and the Duke Org were blasted backwards by blasts of wind from the Turbine Org who had suddenly leaped down from a container.

"Oh goody, a Ranger and a traitor to our kind in one blow! Today must be my lucky day!" Turbine Org laughed even as the Duke Org growled and picked himself up off the concrete with Vapor doing the same.

"You don't seem to know who you're dealing with. Then again, you low level scum were always stupid." The Duke Org mused before picking his blade up off the ground and it's two tips extended with clicking sounds before he shouted "CRESCENT WAVE!"

The Duke Org fired off several glowing yellow crescents of energy at Turbine Org smashing him into the containers denting the sides of them.

"Argh, you'll pay for that!" Turbine Org shouted before taking a swing at the Duke Org with his fan hand but was blocked by the crescent shaped blade of his fellow org. Then, the Duke Org picked Turbine Org up with his bare hands and tossed him towards Vapor who took the hint and sliced at him with her Crystal Saber.

"Let's take this somewhere else!" Vapor shouted before grabbing onto the Org and leaping into the sea with him and dealing out several more slices with her Crystal Saber before being blasted backwards by the Turbine Org sending her into a spin but Vapor quickly recovered. There was a reason she had taken the battle to the water. They were in her territory now. As a purple flash of energy appeared in her hands, a trident materialized in her hands before she thrust it at the Turbine Org and it got caught up in one of the Turbine Org's turbines.

"You... You blinded me you bitch!" Turbine Org shouted in rage before Vapor said "There's more where that came from!" and the trident was taken out of his turbine and was used to deliver several sharp and swift stabs to his chest. Turbine Org quickly figured out this was a loosing battle, he was already worn out from his battle with Sunset not too long ago and now he'd faced off with another Ranger and a rogue Duke Org as well.

"Time to go!" He shouted before leaping out of the water and flying off into the distance. Similarly, Vapor leaped out of the water as well and de-morphed, knowing her job was done for the time being. With no fear in her at all, she walked up to the Duke Org and actually shook his hand, knowing that if he saved her and even helped her out, perhaps... Just maybe there were always exceptions to the rule.

"T-Thank you." Vapor said, and the Duke Org nodded. At about that time, another mare, this one cyan in color with yellow and orange streaked hair arrived and her jaw dropped in shock at the sight before her. It was only after the Duke Org leaped off into the distance that she regained the power of speech.

"What... What the Tartarus just happened here?" Lightning demanded and Vapor answered "To be honest... I'm not sure."


Elsewhere...

Meanwhile, in another part of Equestria stood two figures loading animals into a truck marked "Equestria Animal Shelter". Now, normally this wouldn't have been such an out of the ordinary sight except for the fact that if you looked closer at the two ponies, one a pegasus mare with dark blue skin wearing a Wonderbolts uniform and flying goggles and another a unicorn stallion with dark grey skin wearing the outfit of a Royal Guard.

"Gah, I... I can't believe ponies actually keep these... these creatures as pets! Ugh!" The mare complained as she shoved a brown and white border collie into the van. Her friend agreed with her as he threw a small gator into the van as well.

"I know, they make my skin crawl..." He muttered before both ponies heard the sound of a jet engine and looked upwards into the sky to see the Turbine Org flying above them and over their heads into the distance. Both ponies turned to each other, wearing equal looks of shock before they both laughed in excitement and hugged each other in joyful glee.

"Helicos, did you see that? Another Org! One of us!" The unicorn laughed in excitement before he morphed into a tank like being with treads hanging off his shoulders, two guns on his hands and his single horn also functioning as a tank cannon. His friend, the now named Helicos, morphed into a helicopter themed Org with her single eye surrounded by propellers and her shoulders having two horns that were tipped by rotors as well with her single horn being like a helicopter's tail fin.

"Artilla, you know what this means right?" Helicos asked. If Artilla could smirk, he would have.

"Our Master, or someone just as powerful, has finally returned to us!" Artilla laughed before both Duke Orgs morphed into balls of energy and followed after Turbine Org, but not before Artilla had the chance to think "Our Master better not turn out to be one of those maggot food humans masquerading as an Org this time, or else I don't know what I'll do..."


NewTech City: 2026

Meanwhile, back in NewTech City, the SPD Rangers were hard at work battling Xenox and his robot. Xenox took a swing at the Lightspeed Megazord with one of his robot's claws and scored in a blow making sparks fly off the Megazord which responded in turn by extending it's ladder arms to their full length (Which was quite considerable indeed) all the way to the ground and then delivering an overhead spinning kick to the robot's chin making it stumble back.

"Yeah, that was for trying to blow me up!" Robert bellowed before pressing a button on his control console that made the Megazord's head antennas move back downwards and fired twin beams of laser energy at Xenox's robot who responded in kind by firing a big blue beam of energy from it's single eye making the Lightspeed Megazord stumble backwards.

"Can't take another hit like that." Sky realized as he looked at the Megazord's damage statistics. They weren't good at all. He sighed, even though this Megazord could still pack a punch, it wasn't as heavily armored as the old Delta Megazord had been and was based on outdated technology and took damage far more easily. "We gotta finish this guy off quickly."

"Try the Lightspeed Megazord Saber!" Bridge suggested, and Sky nodded in return. With a cry of "Lightspeed Megazord Saber, activate!" a sword emerged from the Megazord's "Belt Buckle", for lack of a better term and was gripped firmly in the Megazord's hands.

"5!"

"4!"

"3!"

"2!"

"1"!

"Corona Slash!" All five rangers cried out and the Saber created a flaming corona before slashing forwards with a diagonal slash across the chest of Xenox's robot making it stumble back all the while shooting sparks every which way until it finally toppled over and exploded, but just as it did this, Xenox jumped out and onto the streets below.

"Aw, come on... Seriously, this again?" Robert thought in exasperation before he too jumped out of his robot, following Xenox's lead and landed right in front of him even as Sky shouted out "Robert, wait! We're supposed to work as a team here!"

"Screw teamwork! I've been trying to bring this guy in all day and nothing's going to stop me!" Robert shouted back at him over the comms before he held out a black and white power cell that resembled a spool of thread in some ways before tossing it in the air with a shout of "R.I.C! Catch, boy!" and the power cell was caught in midair by a black and white robotic dog. This was R.I.C, the S.P.D's mascot of sorts and yet another way of bringing criminals to justice. And once the power cell was caught, R.I.C was at once transformed. His front legs moved forwards and had two small cannons pop out and he landed in Robert's arms.

"Canine Cannon!" Robert cried out.

"Now, as I was saying... Xenox, you are charged with multiple car thief, resisting arrest, assault of a S.P.D Officer... And quite frankly, ruining of a very nice classic car, plus we can add to that destruction of property, operating a robot without a license and to be honest, needing breath mints and giving me a very bad day."

"Wait, please! I'm not guilty of anything!" Xenox pleaded, knowing what was about to happen.

"Oh please, that never works and you know it. Now do us all a favor and shut up, and prepare to get confined!" Robert retorted and pulled the trigger and was sent flying backwards by the Canine Cannon's sheer kick (There was a reason it was normally held by all five rangers) but the blast hit dead on target and from out of the explosion came a Confinement Card with Xenox inside it. Oddly enough, he wasn't saying a word.

"Huh, guess Kat did finally install that Shut-Up feature after all." Robert thought even as he slipped into the realm of unconsciousness...


Somewhere on Future Earth/Equus:

Back on... Oh, you know the drill by now I think... Artilla and Helicos were marching down a stairway deep in a hidden and closed off section of a factory in Vanhoover's industrial district. This particular factory had been closed off for years, so the likelihood of anypony finding the two Duke Orgs (Brother and Sister actually) was pretty much nill.

"Oh for crying out loud, why'd our master have to pick something so far underground? It's too damp and moist, I'll rust!" Artilla complained and his sister smacked him on the arm.

"Quit complaining. This way, nobody will ever find us here." She said even as she thought to herself "Why oh why did I have be cursed with such an idiot of a brother? Least Jindrax and Toxica, treacherous as they were, had intellect on their sides. Hell, Jindrax was smart enough how to figure out how to bring Toxica back from the Org Underworld! Gotta give him credit for that at least..."

"Not even the Power Rangers?" Artilla asked nervously and if Helicos could have smirked, she would have.

"Especially the Power Rangers." She nodded before raising her sole eyebrow. "Besides, why are you so worried? As far as I can see, they can't even defeat one of the Master's weaker Orgs, so how do you expect them to defeat us, let alone the Master?" Helicos questioned, with Artilla giving the equivalent of a "Fair enough" nod.

Finally the two Duke Orgs reached their intended destination, which was a dank and darkened cave with Org statues and totems with eerie glowing eyes of all sorts of colors all around and in the middle of the room was a throne, with its back turned to them and in the center of the the throne's backside was one very large silver Z...

(To Be Continued...)

Author's Notes:

Well, that theme music alone should give you a hint as to the identity of the new Master Org. Anyways, in this chapter we meet the two Duke Orgs that serve him, Mandilok's Duke Orgs Artilla and Helicos. I chose these two specifically as they never got much chance to shine before being defeated. And speaking of Duke Orgs, yes that was Zen-Aku helping the Purple Ranger. He'll show up a few more times, I can promise you that. Might even be a candidate for a seventh Ranger of sorts! Only time will tell... Also, we get our first Megazord battle as well. Okay, maybe it was rather short, but given Sky's reasoning, it had to be. Also, of course the poll for the candidate for the Magna Defender Powers is still on, and it looks like Shining is currently in the lead. If you want to see the poll, it's up on my profile page. Till next time, cheers!
