“This east wind, this terrifying force that lays waste to all in it’s path. Seeks out the unworthy and plucks them from the earth.” Sherlock Holmes, BBC’s Sherlock: His Last Vow

Robert sighed in relief at Celestia’s appearance. Honestly, he never thought he’d be doing that, but there he was.

“Princess Celes-” Robert started before he noticed Celestia’s form beginning to shift and change and the air around him beginning to grow hotter as Celestia’s skin and feathers became pure black and fire sprouted from cracks in it as her dress burned away as her mane danced in the wind. This brief, horrifying sight was quickly replaced by another one. Red and gold armor covered Celest-No, Solar Flare and her pure black horn jutted out like a lance from her helmet.

“No… She couldn’t have… No, she would.” Robert thought as Solar Flare blasted both Steel Sentry and the other guard away with blasts of hot wind as she advanced, the ground catching fire with every step she took. Robert ran for it as Solar Flare made a column of pure hot flame erupt from where he was standing. One ember caught his trenchcoat and he tossed it aside as it burned away.

He continued running as more flaming pillars erupted and Solar Flare created a sword of fire in her hands.

“You can run, but you can’t hide!” Solar Flare cackled. “Come out, just give in. I promise it won’t hurt. Just a quick blast of flame and you’ll be embers!”

She continued to taunt him in a sing-song tone as Robert ran.

“You know, this is kinda fun. Like a game, this. I can see why Bunglay likes hunting you down, the thrill of the chase!” Solar Flare cackled. “The last human… Oh, what a thrill it’ll be when I finally remove your kind from the Earth! Extinction is such a lovely word, after all you and your kind have done this will be my ultimate victory! It’s the fun of an orgasm, but… Much more satisfactory.”

Robert began to sweat as he ran, though whether that was from fear, the heat or the sheer exhaustion he didn’t know.

“Amusing, isn’t it Celly? The chase!” Solar Flare taunted her other half. Celestia snarled. "You can’t control me. You are just an abomination born from…”

“Yes, your darker emotions. Admit it, you want this!”

“Yes, I admit I wanted humankind to burn at one point, I admit my racism get the better of me but look where that got me. My daughter in the hospital, my own sister terrified to death of me and who knows what else along the pipeline. So, do me a favor and LEAVE!”

With all the willpower she could muster, Celestia forced Solar Flare back into the depths of her mind. With that, she fell to the ground, armor melting away and the Dark Solar Cell Morpher sliding from her hands along the ground.

“Please… Take it, and get as far away as you can. RUN! Run for your own sake, before she comes back! I… I can’t hold her back much longer!”

Robert hesitantly picked up the Morpher and pocketed it.

“What about you?” He asked, as embers crackled in the background.

“I will go to the coldest place I can find, sequester myself, until… Until you are ready to enact Twilight and Sunset’s plan. Now RUN!”

Robert nodded and teleported away in a flash of orange light while Celestia did the same.

Ponyville: Later that evening...

Once again, the Rangers had found themselves in the middle of an Org battle, this time facing off against the aptly named Cellphone Org. He’d already grown to giant size and was already facing off against the Animaria Guardian Megazord in its Spear Mode, with the Giraffe Zord taking the place of the Phoenix as the left arm. Trouble was, he was currently using his antennae to create a disruption field of pure sound making it almost impossible for the Rangers to concentrate. The sound was piercing, almost ear-shattering and if not for the ear protection the helmets provided, the Rangers would have already been driven deaf long ago. The Org fired a beam from his single eye and sent the Megazord staggering back.

“NAVI!” Robert shouted. “We need to drown out this sound! Any ideas?”

“Yes, there is a nearby radio station I can connect to and create a disruption wave to counter this effect,” Navi responded.

“WELL, WHAT THE BLEEDIN’ HELL ARE YOU WAITING FOR YOU DAMN BIRD!?!” Robert continued to shout angrily over the noise as the cockpit sparked. “GET TO IT!”

“...Not a bird…” Navi muttered as she flew to the nearby radio station where Vinyl was on duty. Navi’s chest opened up and out popped Robert’s phone.

“Here, plug this in.” Navi requested, and Vinyl, not even bothering to ask, nodded and plugged the phone in.

“Any specific requests?” Navi asked as the Cellphone Org used his right arm to land a solid punch to the face of the Megazord.

“MEIN GOTT, JUST PICK SOMETHING!” Robert shouted back at her. Both Vinyl and Navi shrugged and picked a random track. Robert smirked as he heard the music begin to broadcast itself over all of Ponyville.

“That’s a good track.” the Orange Ranger said as he began tapping his feet to the beat.

As the music blared and the Megazord landed a slash across the Org’s chest with one of its katanas, Sunburst turned to Vapor in confusion.

“Is… Is that classical music?” He wondered aloud.

“Guess so,” Vapor murmured with a shrug. “No accounting for taste though.”

“Let’s finish this guy off.” Robert growled before shouting “Giraffe Spear, fire!”

The Animaria Guardian Megazord raised its spear arm and launched the Giraffe head and neck with the silver armor covering the head becoming a blazing firestorm. The spear pierced the newest Org right through the chest, leaving a large gaping hole in its wake.

As the Org fell over and exploded, Lightning smirked as Robert gave a thumbs down.

“Connection… terminated.” She remarked as the Megazord raised the spear arm to the sky in triumph, the setting sun as their backdrop.

The Nexus

Thrax smiled. He could do nothing but smile. Despite his most recent defeat at the hands of the Rangers, he could care less. It was finally time.

“Hello old friend, time to for you to greet the new world order,” He mused to himself. “An east wind is coming. I am the deliverer, and you shall be my reaper… My reaper of death. A holy warrior clad in the finest gold, beautiful and elegant. But they will not look at you in awe… They will look at you in pure, utter terror as you cut them down.”

With that smile still plastered on his face, he placed the bloody heart on a pedestal, right next to two others. The second held a piece of shattered, golden armor. The third, a dark pulsing gem. The gem flashed, and two strings of energy connected it to the armor piece and the heart before all three rose up in the air.

“Now, winds from darkest days, terrors of spirits long since past! Diabolico, scourge of Queen Bansheera! Darkonda, the warrior who could not die! The one eyed hunter who never missed, Oculous! The king of dragons, General Scorch!” He called out and each time a name was mentioned, the piece of armor and the heart began to circle the pulsing gem growing ever more quick with each name dropped. “Now, warriors who have fallen, give my holy terror and newest general Org LIFE! Goldar, arise!”

The three pieces merged with a flash of energy that filled the cavern. Soon the burning light faded and a clawed foot clad in metal touched the cavern floor. Clad entirely in armor with the head of a griffin sticking out from his chest plate with a burning orb of energy inside it, Goldar smiled. A familiar sword formed in his hands just as demonic fire sprouted up from his back and formed two charred wings which quickly gained armor as well. Two tusks sprouted from his face and his head quickly gained an armored horned helmet.

Thrax’s smile quickly turned to a smirk.

“Welcome back.”

Goldar stumbled forwards, using his sword to catch himself when he fell by implanting it in the ground.

“Where… Where am I?” Goldar asked, his voice raspy from his vocal chords not being used in so long.

“Back to the land of the living. My name is Thrax, son of Rita Repulsa and Lord Zedd and I was the one who revived you, to be my newest general.” Thrax answered and through a hole in the stone wall, a single eye widened as Goldar looked up at Thrax with an expression of shock that Retinax shared. He growled. So… That was Thrax’s game. To replace him, and with a non-Org at that!

“I knew it, he doesn’t care about us Orgs, not in the slightest,” Retinax mused as he clenched his axe blade tightly. But I’ll play his game, for now, see what other tricks he has up his sleeve. And when I get powerful enough, I will take the title of Master Org for myself and carry out his work. As for Thrax and his newest General, they’ll just have to stew in the fires of their own making.”

With a low chuckled, Retinax swung his axe at a totem and cleaved it in half.

“Yes, all in good time. But for now, I’ll play the fool as for I long as I need. He’ll never see me coming. Thrax wants to play a game of chess it seems. At first, it was Solar Flare as the White King and Celestia as her Queen. Now, the pieces have changed. I’m the White King in this situation, with Helicos as my Queen. Everyone else, Orgs and Rangers alike, they’re all just pawns for the both of us.”

“Prove it.” Goldar growled out. For someone to even claim he was the son of his beloved master, it was an insult of the highest caliber. With a smirk, Thrax summoned both Rita’s wand and pulled a totem’s head forwards, making a wall move aside to reveal Zedd’s throne.

“Is this proof enough?” Thrax asked as he sat down on the throne in a relaxed posture, his fingers tapping the armrests while his left arm gripped Rita’s wand tightly.

“Hardly, though I thank you for bringing me back, I don’t trust you. You could have easily acquired both of those items and use them to back your claim.” Goldar rebutted. Then he let out a roar of pain as Thrax blasted him with red lightning from his mother’s Wand.

“Is THAT proof enough?” Thrax commented as Goldar struggled to stand and then he bowed at Thrax’s feet.

“Y-Yes… You truly are the son of my Lord.” Goldar groveled and Thrax chuckled. “Ah, you always were such a suck-up. So easy to use.”

Thrax chuckled. “Your spineless, sniveling attitude leads me to believe you will serve me well. For that, I have restored to you what was once taken away. You have been granted new gifts as well,”

“Now… rise.” Thrax commanded and Goldar did so.

“What is your bidding, my master?” Goldar asked.

“To continue your Master’s grand design, finish what he set out to do. Conquer the Galaxy and bring it to it’s knees. But first, we have a… Little obstacle. Any obstacle can be removed although, especially when it’s one you’re all too familiar with.”

As Goldar’s eyes narrowed, Thrax smirked.

“Yes, that one. Power Rangers.”

The Animarium:

All four Wild Force Rangers groaned in exhaustion as they teleported on the Animarium, Luna’s moon illuminating the main temple in its glow. Crickets chirped in the bushes as Vapor slumped into a chair and sighed to herself. Lightning rubbed her bloodied forehead from where it had been smashed up against a wall by a Putrid.

“Mystic Mother above… These Orgs, they’re running us ragged. We need help, badly.” She muttered as Shayla began applying some natural remedies to help with the healing process.

“Seriously… To Hell with our lives,” Robert muttered. “Our leader’s in the hospital in a coma, the Magna Defender is God knows where and God only knows when bat-brain will show up. As far as I can tell, he just shows up when he likes to.”

“A-Actually, there’s a good reason why he can’t just show up and bail us out.” Sunburst stuttered out nervously.

“What, don’t tell me he’s your pregnant wife because last I checked he didn’t look that way. Emphasis on HE.” Robert deadpanned.

“He’s a thestral. They can’t really be out and about in the daytime. Zen-Aku’s one thing as I don’t know how Duke Org magic works, but Galaxy… He has really sensitive eyes. Going out in the daytime might just blind him. Plus there’s his job…”

“Wait, Galaxy?” Vapor piped up, her eyes widening in recognition. As far as she could remember, there was only one stallion that stuck out in her memory with that name. “As in Galaxy Swirls, captain of Princess Luna’s Guard?”

Robert snorted as Sunburst nodded in return. “...Oh, well that's just wonderful. So, let’s recap. Okay, so a nutjob married to a nervous wreck, Shayla singing songs with a Duke Org, who happens to be on our side by the way and yes, I happen to know about that,” Robert interrupted before anypony could speak up. “Don’t think I haven’t heard his flute every morning. Any more shocks my brain can take today?" He yelled out, throwing his hands up in the air in pure frustration.

‘Well… To put it simply, Princess Luna's in love with you.” Vapor thought to herself. She wasn’t stupid. She knew perfectly well who that Artemis mare was the moment she saw her. The fur coloring and the constellation theming was a dead giveaway. She was honestly surprised Robert himself, him being a cop and all meaning he would have good instincts hadn’t figured it out for himself. For all of his womanizing traits, he seemed to be absolutely clueless when a mare liked-liked him, and vice versa.

After all, anypony blessed with the gift of sight could see he was in love with Sunset. Nopony was that protective of a mare or got that angry when she was hurt unless they cared for them on a deeper level. And she could tell Sunset being in the hospital was hitting Robert worst of all, given how short tempered with everypony he’d been all week and so out of character he’d been acting. He almost never showed off to anypony, nor did he crack as many jokes as he used to. Maybe she was wrong, and he was just growing up and he just was protective of Sunset because of how kind she was to him, but then again, she’d been very kind to him as well and he wasn’t nearly as protective of her as he was with Sunset.

“...You’re right Lightning-Bitch, as much as I hate to admit it, you are absolutely right. We NEED help, badly.” Robert muttered. Lightning gaped at him in shock, unsure if she’d heard right.

“Run that one by me again? Pretty sure I just had something crazy fly in my ear and it’s still lodged there.” She mocked.

“I said… You are right. We need help that we can rely upon. We’re exhausted and it’s starting to show on all of us.” Robert said.

“And I think that might be the whole point,” Sunburst said, speaking up again making everyone look at him. He flushed red at being put in the spotlight but cleared his throat and adjusted his glasses as he walked back and forth, a hand stroking his goatee in thought. “Think about it, Thrax sends down Org after Org to attack us, and we get exhausted. Pretty soon, we’ll make a mistake, and then one or more of us will get k-killed in action.” He stuttered out, not even wanting to think about the possibility.

Suddenly, Princess Shayla felt a cold wind blast through her. She flinched, and everyone present took notice.

“What’s wrong?” Vapor asked, not really wanting to know. Shayla turned to look at the Rangers, her face grave.

“Something’s coming. I… I don’t know what, but it’s something very big. I just felt it, something dark has just occurred, a ritual. Something that should never have been brought back into this world… has.”

With that, the temple fell silent as the grave.

“Get some rest Rangers. It’s going to be a busy day tomorrow. Of that, I can sense.” Shayla stated.

The Crystal Empire:

All was peaceful in the Empire, tall spires gleaming with crystal and various ponies going about their daily lives. Two guards stood at the twin shards that made up the gateway to the empire, their aquamarine armor glittering in the sun, spears pointed to the sky as they stood resolutely. Suddenly, rockets flew towards the guards and they dodged out of the way as the gateway came down with a crash. Retinax chuckled as his Putrids lowered their cudgels. This was what Thrax wanted. For the time being, he’d obey. Plus, there was an added bonus, as this was where the Magna Defender AKA his rival Shining Armor made his home. He’d love to strike him down, especially after the humiliation he’d been dealt in their first bout. Retinax pointed his axe at the fallen gateway.

“Now Putrids, let them scream out in terror! Time to make our mark and reduce this paradise to ruins.” Retinax ordered and smirked as various boulders began to raise themselves up by pure will and form into golem like creatures which slowly began to march on the Empire. A yellow coated guard tried to stand but was simply swatted aside by one of the golems and his neck twisted to the left with a sickening snap by the force of the blow.

From his castle, Shining heard the screams and he and his wife rushed out onto the balcony to see the Empire in flames thanks to fired rockets and Retinax’s own powers while ponies screamed in terror.

“Retinax.” Shining growled. Cadence’s eyes widened at the name.

“As in that Org thing who attacked Canterlot a while back?” She asked in surprise.

“Yes, him. He wants to draw me out,” Shining snarled, an uncharacteristic tone of fury in his voice. “Well, congrats. He succeeded.”

“You’re not planning to take him on alone are you?” Cadence asked. “Let me help you. This is my empire he’s threatening as well. It is my duty to meet him on the field of battle.”

“No, this is a personal score.” Shining stated and Cadence looked at him in confusion.

“P-Personal? What do you mean?” Cadence asked, worry present in her voice.

“Cadence, there’s something I haven’t told you about myself. I-I was waiting for the proper time, but it seems Retinax made that decision for me,” Shining said as he walked towards the edge of the balcony. The illusion that hid the Magna Blade dropped. “You know that Magna Defender who appeared to stop Retinax’s first attack right?”

“Yes… But…” Cadence stated before her eyes widened in realization. Shining nodded before he took a running leap off the balcony with a shout of “Magna Power!” and in a flash of green energy, he landed on the streets below in full armor, sword drawn.

“Now, Retinax… Do you want to threaten my home? Well, the Prince of this Empire doesn’t back down. Did you want to greet me on the fields of battle? Well, here I am.” Shining thought before he charged into battle to meet the oncoming threat…

The Animarium:

Elsewhere, the four remaining Rangers were watching the attack on the Crystal Empire unfold.

“We’re going down there.” Lightning said, leaving no room in her voice for argument and all three of her comrades nodded. Then, the reflecting pool’s image changed to show that of Thrax on his throne.

“Sorry to spoil the mood, but I can’t let you interfere in my plans this time,” Thrax chuckled. “I’ve got an ultimatum for you. You see, you could go and defend the Crystal Empire and stop Retinax but that would leave Ponyville unprotected. I’m sending a very dear friend of mine down there and if you go to the Empire to stop my other General, you can’t stop this one. Your choice.”

With that, the image changed to show Ponyville under attack by hordes of Tengas and Putrids led by an Org based on a golden Asian dragon with two hatchets in hand. Robert slammed his fist on the table in rage.

“No… Something’s wrong. Orgs never take the form of animals. Zen-Aku along with that Org created from four Animal Crystals by the Master Org were the exception to the rule and they were not created by natural means.” Shayla thought in fear. “If they go to Ponyville, they’re walking right into a trap.”

“Damnit… He’s got us by the balls. Either choice we pick… We lose.” Robert snarled.

“Giving up so easily Orange Ranger?” Zen-Aku’s voice commented as he appeared behind them out of thin air. “Funny, I seem to remember one of your predecessors saying to “Never give up.” Seems you’re doing just that. I will go to the Empire and help Shining and the Princess of Love hold off Retinax. Your four shall go to Ponyville and deal with the newest Org Spirit.”

“No!” Shayla shouted. “Something’s wrong! That Org… He isn’t an Org at all, at least not like any I’ve ever seen. You’re walking into a trap if you go down there!”

“Don’t have much choice do we Princess?” Lightning asked. “He still needs to be stopped.”

“You… You’re right Lightning, but be careful.” Shayla admitted.

Back in the Crystal Empire, Shining was slashing through Putrid after Putrid blade in hand and then switched to his Riot Blaster to blast some more. One Putrid tried to take him from the side, but Shining kicked him in the chest making it stagger back before shooting the Orgling.

Two more Putrids tried to come at Shining from behind but were cut down by a blast of magic.

“C-Cadence?” Shining asked in surprise as he saw his wife in full battle dress.

“This is my Empire as well, and besides, I’d never let my husband go into battle alone. Retinax wants a siege? Well, we’ll give it to him, and then some.”

Then, she grabbed a lance from a fallen guard and was swinging it around knocking down Putrids by hitting them in the shin. She then threw the lance and charged it with magical energy and impaled a Putrid before the lance exploded taking out it and several of his comrades. She then pulled out a bow and arrow before taking to the rooftops with her wings and began sharpshooting the Putrids from above.

Retinax had engaged Shining and their weapons met again and again. The General Org fired an eye beam at Shining but he rolled to the left and then blasted his foe making Retinax stagger back.

“Ha! Is that all you’ve got?” Retinax taunted as he blasted Shining with red lightning from his axe right in the chest cracking the gem in the center of his chest plate. Retinax then leaped forwards becoming a blur and slashed the Magna Defender across the chest three times drawing blood on the last strike. “I thought a PRINCE would do better.”

Retinax chuckled and rested his axe on his shoulder as Shining clutched his chest in pain and fell to the ground using his sword in an attempt to stay standing.

“Guess I was right before. You ain’t worth shit!” Retinax chuckled as the golems advanced. Shining growled and picked himself up ignoring the bleeding and put a magical adhesive over his wound, his horn glowing a rose like shade of pink.

“You’re not the first conqueror to try and take this land. There was another… King Sombra. He tried twice to keep this land as his, even came back from the dead second time around and do you want to know what happened to him?” Shining asked. “No? Well, let me tell you. He failed BOTH times and now his horn is hanging in what used to be his trophy room. He wasn’t worth shit either if you ask me.”

With that Shining charged forwards and his blade glowed a pure blue as he cried out “Galactic Slash!” and Magna Blade met axe and the axe lost, shattering in half right down the middle. Retinax staggered back in shock both from the force of the blow and surprise.

Retinax growled out. “Very well. Maybe you aren’t such a worthless little horse after all. But the thing is, me and my Putrids aren’t the only things you have to worry about.”

Shining then found himself punched in the face by two of the Golems and the sheer strength and weight behind the twin punch sent him flying back into a stall selling pure silver flugelhorns.

“Haven’t seen these guys before have you? Thrax gave them to us as a gift from his Grandfather. His own unique breed of foot-soldiers, Putties he calls them. Don’t ask me why they got that name, but I have to admit, they are fairly effective at taking out the trash wouldn’t you agree?” Retinax asked laughing to himself.

Just then, a gold blade went flying through the two Putties’ legs, chopping off the stone and sending the golems crashing to the street and rendering them into piles of rubble. The sword itself impaled itself in a wall.

“Funny, the only trash I see around here is you.” A female voice remarked and both Shining and Retinax looked upwards to the rooftop of the Crystal Library. There stood an aqua colored Ranger, costume similar in design to Galaxy’s but with a leather whip attached to her skirt and two light golden wings sprouting out of her back.

She leaped down into the fray and almost at once grabbed her whip and used it to grab a Putty by the legs and pull him down.

“For such powerful foot soldiers, they seem to be awfully weighty, don’t they? Can’t be a good advantage in combat can it?” The newest Ranger commented. Two Putrids tried to fire off rockets at her only to be shot in the head without even a glance in their direction.

“Who the hell do you think you are?” Retinax snarled. With a smirk, the Aqua Ranger demorphed to reveal a very familiar face to anypony who ever looked on the cover of a book.

“Name’s Daring Do. Perhaps you’ve heard of me?”

Ponyville:

With swirls of energy, the four Rangers arrived in Ponyville and almost at once morphed and the resulting explosion of pure Morphin’ Grid energy knocked back some Tengas and Putrids. Robert pulled out his Kitsune Blaster and fired into the hoard while Vapor swung her trident and tripped up a Tenga before impaling it in its heart. Lightning grabbed two Putrids by the wrists with her whips and pulled back and flipped them to the ground. Sunburst just pulled out the Navi Blaster and let some other Tengas have it.

Robert stared at the sight.

“He made his own daughter into a laser rifle? I don’t know whether if I should comment on how completely wrong that is, or just laugh at the whole ludicrousness of it all.” Robert mused before kicking one more Putrid in the chest knocking it into a pie stall.

“Now it’s only you, Org.” Robert remarked, aiming his blaster at the “Org”.

“Now that…” The Org commented in an all too familiar voice making Robert’s eyes widen in pure and utter terror as his form shifted to that of Goldar’s “Is where you’re sorely mistaken, Orange Ranger.”

“No, not him… Anyone but him.” Robert thought as he took a few steps back in fright. Everypony else noticed.

“R-Robert, who is that?” Sunburst stuttered out, quite afraid himself. Vapor looked nervous as well for the same reasons. If Robert looked to be afraid of something, then there probably was an very good reason for it.

“Goldar,” Robert whispered. “Out of all the monsters Ranger teams have faced in the past, he’s one of the worst. He’s never been defeated in combat, never destroyed by any Ranger alive. It was only a wave of pure Morphin Grid energy that finally took him down, and that was before I was even born. He’s possibly the most dangerous foe that Thrax could ever send at us.”

“I-If that’s true…” Vapor whispered. “Why didn’t the fountain alert us to when Thrax revived him?”

“Because it’s attuned to only pick up Orgs, and Goldar isn’t one,” Sunburst explained. “Shayla was right. This was a trap made specifically for us, and we walked right into it.”

Goldar smirked.

“Exactly.” He said before the glowing orb in his chest began to pulse and the eyes on his torso-plate lit up before he unleashed a blast of pure purple-orange energy at the Rangers knocking them right out of their Ranger forms. Goldar chuckled as he strode forwards and pulled out his sword, his armored tail flicking back and forth in anticipation.

“Your colors may be different than any Power Ranger team I’ve seen, but you’re still just the same as every other… Pathetic.” Goldar remarked as Robert and company picked themselves up off the ground and went for their morphers.

“Legendary Wi-”

They never even got a chance to finish their morphing sequence before Goldar blasted them with balls of fire. He chuckled as he continued to walk forwards. His sword glowed and he swung it in a triangular formation and yelled out “Prism Slash!” and sent the triangle-shaped attack spiraling towards the Rangers as a final blow but before it could even reach them a gold feathered wing shielded the Rangers. Robert looked up and blinked as he saw a mare with a red and yellow streaked mane-style. His eyes widened.

“No… It can’t be.”

“You… Get the Tartarus away from my team.” Sunset Shimmer snarled out.

(To Be Continued)

Author's Notes:

Okay, so we are back and what a way to bring things back I say! First things first, Robert WILL NOT be morphing into the Solaris Knight. Those powers aren't reserved for him. Now, as the villains have split into four groups, I think it's probably best to explain each group's motivation.

Retinax: Wants to take over as the Master Org and rule the Earth.

Thrax: Wants to continue Master Vile's legacy of ruling entire galaxies.

Solar Flare: Wants to exterminate any and all traces of humankind.

Bunglay: Couldn't care less about any of the other villains or what they want. Just want's Robert's dead body for the money it'll bring him.

Finally, a good friend of mine on here, CaioCalo was nice enough to do this vector of Daring as the Aqua Ranger and he's got artwork of Robert in costume on the way as well. Give him a shout, eh?
