Episode 17: Knight of Destiny

Chrysalis was sitting in the fortress, and a scheme came to her. "Sombra. I believe I've found a way to make the rangers hurt. Make them suffer. Make them beg to surrender." Sombra had an evil grin at hearing this.

"And what did you have in mind my queen?"

"Almost all of them have someone they love above all else. We've been attacking their bodies, but what we really need to go for..." Chrysalis smiled as she looked at the crystal and saw each of the girls the rangers loved."is the heart." She then turned her gaze to Sonata. "I always wanted to try the love of a siren. Time to go fishing..." Chrysalis licked her lips in anticipation of tasting Sonata's love. Back on Earth, Ace was walking Sonata to class.

"So I'll walk you home after school today?", he asked.

"I'd love that Ace. You really know how to make me feel loved.", Sonata said with a smile as she kissed him. "See you when school's out." Ace smiled as he went about the rest of the day. The day went by pretty quickly, and was over before anybody knew it. Sonata was waiting for her family, and sure enough they showed up. "Hey Aria! Dagi! Just waiting on Ace!"

"That guy really loves you if he's willing to walk you home everyday.", Adagio said with a smile.

"More than any of you know.", Chrysalis said as she made her presence known! "Looks like I've caught me three sirens. Are you going to come along nicely, or are you going to give me a fight?"

"We aren't going anywhere with you!", Aria spat! Chrysalis smiled.

"Oh. Most unwise..." She snapped her fingers and a squad of Sombra's crystal golems appeared. "Capture them." Aria attempted to punch the golem that made a grab for her, but hurt herself!

"Agh! These things are made of stuff tougher than rock!" The former sirens soon found themselves surrounded! Chrysalis flew down to them and used her magic to knock them out. Ace had just walked out the door, and was horrified to see Sonata and her family being carried off! "SONATA!" Chrysalis noticed him and gave him an evil smile.

"Come and get her ranger boy!" Before Ace could even reach the portal, Chrysalis cackled at his failed effort to rescue his girlfriend. She then tossed a piece of paper at him as the portal closed. Ace struck the ground in rage and contacted the other rangers.

"Guys. Chrysalis kidnapped Sonata and her family! We have to get them back! Now!"

"Sit tight Ace! We'll meet back at the command center!Chrysalis could be baiting you! We need a-!" Ace cut off Burst before he could finish and looked at the paper Chrysalis had tossed. It gave coordinates where to find Sonata and her family. Ace teleported to the command center and went to one of the computers. He entered the coordinates and prepared to teleport. The other rangers arrived, and were stunned to see Ace about to leave!

"Ace wait!", Ice called out before Ace teleported away! "We'd better check where he's headed!" The rangers pulled up the last location Ace had entered. "Oh man! He's walking straight into a trap!" Meanwhile, Chrysalis was at the location she had marked on the paper she had tossed at Ace. She smiled at the sight of Sonata helpless in her magic. She opened her mouth and absorbed some of the love Sonata had for Ace. "I always did want to try seafood.", she said with an evil smile. Adagio and Aria struggled in the changeling slime that bound them.

"If you've hurt her I'll-!", Aria began to shout. Chrysalis turned her attention to Aria and went down to her level.

"You're in no position to put up a fight. So why should I have any reason to fear your threat.", Chryslais spat. Sonata was stirring out of her forced slumber.

"Ace...Ace will...come for us..." Chrysalis smiled as she saw Sonata slowly awaken.

"Oh sweetie...I'm counting on it." From the shadows a monster emerged. "Guardian Dreadscythe will make sure you're the last thing he ever sees..." Chrysalis teleported away to her fortress and prepared to watch Ace head for his supposed doom. Ace had arrived and morphed the instant he landed! He made a dash for the cave and found Sonata and her family imprisoned in some sort of slime!

"Hold on! I'm getting you out of here!"

"It's a trap!", Sonata screamed as Dreadscythe was about to take a slash at Ace! Ace dodged just in time and summoned his sword!

"Alright ugly! Bring it!" Ace and Dreadscythe's weapons clashed! But it was clear that Dreadscythe had the edge in raw power! Ace's sword was knocked away and Dreadscythe got in a critical blow!

"Ace!" Ace struggled to get up after the devastating blow Dreadscythe had inflicted. His thought were a mess, but he found one focal point. Sonata! He couldn't meet his end here! He wouldn't! He was going to beat this monster, and save Sonata and her family! He can, and he would! Ace stood to his feet, and light began to shine trough some of the cracks in his armor! Then he heard two voices and saw two dragons before him! One red and one blue.

"Noble warrior who has bonded with Timaeus, we give you our power! I Hermos give you my claws.", the red one spoke.

"And I Critias give you my wings! Rise, Knight of Destiny!", the blue one spoke! There was a blinding pillar of light that surrounded Ace! When the light faded, Ace's armor was gold and he had wings that were bursting with energy! And most noticeable was the rocket cannon he now held in addition to his sword.

"Round two ugly!" Ace said as he fired a rocket from his new cannon! Dreadscythe was knocked right through one of the cave walls! Ace continued his attack by flying after him with his new wings! The wings were so sharp they cut Dreadscythe's weapon in two! Leaving the fallen guardian defenseless! Ace charged up his sword with golden energy and fired a blast of magic that bound Dreadscythe in place! "Destiny Seal Slash!" Ace charged at Dreadscythe and destroyed him in one slash! A huge explosion followed Dreadscythe's defeat! Ace then returned to Sonata and her family and freed them. "You alright?" Sonata gave Ace a hug after he freed her family.

"I am now. I knew you'd come." The other rangers had just arrived and were impressed by Ace's power up.

"Nice new ranger suit!", Inferno said with a thumbs up. Chrysalis was furious when Dreadscythe was defeated!

"Megamorph!" Chrysalis cast the spell and Dreadscythe grew to gigantic size! "Crush them!" The rangers noticed Dreadscythe and went into action!

"Alright guys! We need Megazord power now!" The rangers called their zords, but for some reason Ace's zord transformed the moment it was called! Instead of the usual green color, the Timaeus Zord was gold! Regardless of the color change, it still transformed all the same into the right leg of the Megazord. "Hey Ace! Why don't you see what upgrades your new powers give the Megazord?" Ace pulled up his display and found the Megazord had a new weapon!

"We've got our selves a shiny new sword! Summon Dragon Seal Saber!" The Megazord raised its right arm to the sky as it called down a sword that resembled Ace's! "Let's cut Dreadscythe down to size!" The Megazord fired a blast that froze Dreadscythe in place with a seal! Then is charged and unleashed a series of powerful slashes! The Megazord turned around and sheathed its new saber on its back. Dreadscythe was destroyed in a gigantic explosion! The rangers left the Megazord and returned to Sonata and her family as they powered down. Sonata rushed up to Ace and gave him a hug so tight it almost broke his ribs!

"My dragon knight in shining armor!", she said sweetly.

"I'm glad you're happy! But my vision's starting to go black-!", Ace groaned before Sonata released him. The rangers then headed for home to recover for what the next day would bring.
