//------------------------------// // 19 Shadow's Master Plan // Story: Power rangers : Mystic Friendship // by rpp4d2 //------------------------------// NICK'S P.O.V. Me and the other Rangers had unmorphed, when suddenly I remembered something. "Guys..." I said. "Yes?" The others asked. "...Toby..." I simply said. Everyone started to look desperate, we had been in Equestria for a few weeks, and now we suddenly realised. We all started running together, towards the Rock Porium. Xander came first, followed by Chip, the Vida, then Madison, then me. As we entered we just saw Toby sitting in a chair, looking at us. 'We are dead', that's all I could think of. "I won't even ask you where you were this time, I belive to have gotten over it. Start your job. I want everything clean in two hours. No complaints." With that said, he got up, and started to walk towards the door. "Well, it could have been much worse." Vida whispered. "And you will be doing overtime for the next three weeks." He said, then left. "Said too soon." Vida stated. "Who is he?" Asked Twilight, only now I realised she and the others followed us here. "Let's just say, we work here, and he is our boss." Said Xander, getting his mop. "Well, you are the Power Rangers, he should know how much you risk yourself." Rainbow Dash said. "He doesn't know." I said. "And why not?" Asked Twilight. "You see, just like most humans, he has no magical powers. Only us Rangers, and a few others have such abilities. We keep out identities hidden to protect those we care about. He doesn't know we are the Power Rangers, otherwise he might get into danger because of this." I awnsered. "Oh, I see..." Said Twilight. As we were doing our duties, I started having a weird feeling. A very infamous headache, suddenly I could hear Koragg speaking inside my mind. "Red Ranger!" He called. "What is it?!" I asked. "It is an emergency. Appearantly Imperious and the others have been defeated." He said. "So what? That's what we've been trying to do for quite a while." I stated. "You don't understand. It was Shadow. He attacked the others, and captured them. We are currently in his base. If you help us out of here, we will gladly defeat him alongside you." He said. "Why would you do that?" I asked. "We are loyal to the master, he, however, wants to destroy him, and after this, the world." Koragg awnsered. "Why do you expect us to help?" I asked. "I know his plan, and I will tell you if you come here, and help us out of here." He awnsered. "I'll see..." I said. "Don't take too long if you know what is good for you." He said not as menacingly as he would usually sound. Aftr this, the connection was broken, and I realised everyone was looking at me. It was time to explain everything. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ KORAGG'S P.O.V. After I finished the conversation I looked at the others. "I have called him. Now, it's up to him to decide whether to trust us or not." I said. "To depend on the help of our arch-enemies. So humiliating" Commented Chrysalis. "Once we are out of here, I would like to destroy Shadow, piece by piece, myself." Said Imperious. "It won't take long, I shall call the Red Ranger soon enough, and tell him where are we." I said. And that is what I did, several minutes later. "Koragg." "Have you decided yet?" "We are going to rescue you, but if you are lying." "We are not. We are currently located in the underground of a mountain located not too far away from the west side of Briarwood. Shadow is currently busy, so be stealthy, and not allow yourselves to get caught by him." "On our way." And once again we finished the connection. "So?" Imperious asked. "Help is on the way." I said. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ MYSTIC RANGERS P.O.V. A few minutes later, they found the mountain. Shadow had him symbol marking everywhere around the place. Soon enough, the Rangers found an entrance, and entered the underground tunnels. The whole place had an dark aura to it. The rangers were as stealthy as they could. Eventually, they found a room with a map, and decided to take it. "So, where is the prision block?" Asked Chip. "It appears to be somewhere around the south side?" Nick awnsered. "And where are we?" Asked Xander. "About five rooms away from it." Nick awnsered again. Eventually, the Rangers found the prision cells, and released all the villains. "So you weren't lying." Said Nick. "I wouldn't dare, especially in a situation like this." Koragg awnsered. "Let's just get out of here." Said Imperious. All of them started moving back towards where they came from. Eventually they were about to leave the place, when suddenly they heard laughter right behind them. They looked around to see the Black Ranger fully morphed. All the Rangers took a battle stance. "Don't do it, we also have underestimated him." Said Necrolai. The Rangers didn't pay attention. As they were fighting, suddenly they were attacked by some vines. "Xander? Wich side are you on?" Asked Nick. "Rangers, of course. I'm not doing any of this." Xander awnsered. "It's me." Said a new figure behind Shadow. Behind him was a flower-woman, with a red head, and green vines all around her body. "Wait, didn't we defeat her already?" Asked Xander. "You never truly defeated her. Now, die." Shadow said, using his shadow attacks. We embraced for our deaths, when suddenly, nothing happend. Standing between us and Shadow was Koragg, with his shield. "Stop looking, and just go already." He said. "I have been through worse, just get out of here." With that said, all of us left, while Koragg fought against the other two. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ SHADOW'S P.O.V. "You knew I knew about your connection with the Red Ranger, right?" I accused him. "I am not as stupid as you think I am. You may even try to have me now, but it will be no use." He threatened me. "And why is that?" I questioned. He pointed at his shield. "I can find a way around it." I said. He chuckled. Before I had time to understand why, something attacked both me and Thorns from behind. "UGH! CATASTROS!" I shouted realising who attacked us. Quickly enough, the Wolf Knight disappeared from sight. Thorns helped me up, and both of us headed to the main room. "Would you like me to chase after him?" Thorns asked. "It does not matter. I will succeed in my plan. You just stay around, and do your function." I told her. "Right, master." She said. After this, I left the room. If the Rangers think they have a chance, they are very, very wrong. The time has come, for them to face their ultimate foe. Me. ________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ HEROES AND VILLAINS TRUCE P.O.V. "So he plans on using all the enemies we fought in equestria against us once again at the same time?" Asked Chip in disbelief. "Precisely. And that is why we must work together. He also stole our hidiac army. So, while you Rangers stop Shadow, we destroy our own army." Said Imperious. "I never thought we'd reach this point." Said Twilight. "Me neither, as much as I hate it." Said Chrysalis. "We must get ready, Shadow is already on the move, luckily, we know his plan. Koragg, could you patrol the areas around town, so that we can know what Shadow is doing?" Said Nick. "Don't get used to it." Koragg said, as he left. "...Never obeyed me, but when the Ranger gives the command..." Mumbled Imperious. "Come on, guys. We can't fight each other. Now, we have something far greater to fight against, we must get ready for the final showdown..." Said Nick.
