//------------------------------// // Reign of terror (part 2) // Story: Prehistoric Thunder: a Power Rangers story // by TheHardie-Boy //------------------------------// Once everyone and everypony had arrived at Starlight’s old village, they were surprised to see it was in fine condition. Nopony was scurring in fear, all of the buildings were intact, and there were no signs that a monster had been there. “Party Favor! This is gonna sound a bit crazy, but you didn’t happen to see a white monster did you?” Starlight asked. “Um, no. Are you alright?” Party Favor responded. “Yes, I’m fine,” Starlight said, a little embarrassed. “I don’t get it. Why would Terrorsaurus teleport here and not do anything to cause trouble?” Connor asked. “Do you guys think it’s possible that he could’ve known about the tracker?” Twilight asked. “I guess it’s possible. We didn’t exactly make sure no one was watching when we did I it,” Ethan said. Just then, Terrorsaurus stepped out of the shadows, wearing new, purple armor. “Why don’t you try to find that out for yourselves? Of course I plan on causing trouble,” Terrorsaurus said. Kira looked off into the horizon; the sun was beginnning to set. She pointed this out to the others and they prepared to fight. The ponies got into their best fighting poses as the rangers morphed and went into super Dino Mode. “You don’t stand a chance,” Terrorsaurus taunted, drawing a sword of his own. It was at this time that the locals began to run in fear. Some ran into their houses, others went up the mountain. The rangers and the ponies charged into battle and were met with a surge of energy from the Terrorsaurus, sending them all flying back. “Looks like he’s recharged. Luckily the sun’s almost going down,” Connor said. He and the other rangers got up and charged into battle once again. The Terrorsaurus slashed at them with its sword, but the spikes on the rangers’ suits protected them. The rangers tried to flank the Terrorsaurus from all sides, but it was able to counter every attack they threw at it. It probably didn’t help that it also had a Jetpack-like machine on its back. It used it to fly above the rangers and swoop them. Twilight and the others tried to get back into the fight, but they were blocked by a swarm of Tyrannadrones. “Looks like we’re gonna have to take these guys down again,” she said. Starlight was already in the middle of the swarm firing her magic every which way to take out Tyrannadrone after Tyrannadrone. Applejack joined her and began to use her strength to take down several Tyrannadrones at once. She then bucked as hard as she could, bringing down another one. Rainbow flew above and tried a Sonic Rainboom to send the Tyrannadrones away. It worked and she cheered as loudly as she could. A few of the Tyrannadrones tried to attack the innocents, but Rartiy used her magic to knock them back. Fluttershy and Pinkie were trying to get the locals out of danger, due to their lack of fighting experience. The sun had finally set. The rangers regrouped and prepared to finish Terrorsaurus off. They charged at it once again, but this time, the Terrorsaurus countered their attacks even though the moon was up. The rangers were caught fatally off guard, as the monster grabbed onto them and threw them into separate houses. Then, as if things couldn’t get any worse, the Terrorsaurus multiplied into three. “You have gotta kidding,” Connor said. “It’s Mesagog all over again,” Ethan said. “Stop complaining and actually try,” Kira said. The rangers fought the three Terrorsauruses as best they could, but they could not take it down one on one. The Tyrannadrones were finally taken down, and the locals were safe. Twilight and the others looked to see the fight was still going, even though the sun had gone down. “I don’t get it. I thought the sun was supposed to be that thing’s power source,” Twilight said. The Terrorsaurus began charging a powerful blast in its horn. Once it was finished it shouted, “Dark Energy Blast!” as it fired upon the rangers, making them de-morph. “If we’re gonna do something, we have to do it now,” Starlight said. “Alright, here we go,” Twilight said, reluctantly. Just before they could engage in battle, a blinding light appeared. It lingered for a moment, and once it was gone, another human stood in its place. “You again? What are you doing here?” Terrorosaurus asked. “I’m here to take you down,” the human said. Twilight and the others took the opportunity to tend to Connor and the other rangers. “Who is that?” Rainbow asked. “And why is he challenging the Terrorsaurus?” Twilight added. “It’s Trent. He just might be able to take it down,” Connor responded, barely conscious. Trent whipped out his own, white dino morpher. “Gimme your best shot,” Terrorsaurus taunted. “I intend to. White Ranger! Dino Power!” Trent shouted. In another blinding flash, Trent morphed into his own ranger mode. His suit was mostly white and had black triangle patterns, instead of white. And instead of a black visor on his helmet, he had a red visor. “Drago Power!” Trent shouted, as he drew his drago-saber. He and the Terrorsaurus engaged in battle. They were matched on levels of strength, speed, and durability. Anything the Terrorsaurus was able to do before, Trent could now do as well. “How are those two so equally matched? That thing was just mopping the floor with you guys earlier,” Starlight said. “Like I said before, the Terrorsaurus was modeled often Trent’s power. They have all of the same abilities,” Ethan responded. Trent and the Terrorsaurus continued to fight, neither warrior gaining an inch on the other. If one looked at it, they would just see a black and white blur of chaos. Both the Terrorsaurus and Trant were moving so fast. Once they finally separated, Trent turned toward the other rangers. “Are you guys alright?” he asked. “Just a little beat up. How did you get here?” Connor responded. “I’ll explain later. First I gotta take this guy down,” Trent said, turning his attention back toward the Terrorsaurus. “Your reign of terror is over!” Trent said. “Bring it on!” Terrorsaurus responded. “Gladly. Super Dino Mode!” Trent shouted. With that, Trent’s suit began to change, just as the other rangers’ suits did when they entered super Dino Mode. The black triangles on Trent’s breastplate became long spikes, along with the triangles on his legs. To finish the transformation, the black bracelets on his wrists became two gauntlet-like weapons. After he was all suited up for battle, Trent once again charged toward the Terrorsaurus. The Terrorsaurus didn’t put up a very good fight. Trent’s speed was now doubled, his blades extremely sharp, and he didn’t give the Terrorsaurus an inch. The fight finally ended when Trent began to wave his blades in a circular motion, and the blades themselves began to store more and more energy, while also increasing in length. Trent swung his blades at the Terrosaurus, unleashing all of the energy inside of them. The Terrorsaurus was finally defeated and exploded into a bunch of pieces. “That was amazing! Your timing could not have been better,” Twilight said, walking up to Trent. “Woah there, back up...whatever you are again,” Trent said. “An alicorn,” Ethan shouted. “Alicorn, thank you,” Trent said. Before anything else could be said, a laser was fired at the remains of Terrorsaurus, causing it to reform and grow. “Guess I’d better take care of that too,” Trent said, “Dragonzord! Stegozord!” With that, two zords approached, one white and flying the other purple and walking. The white dragon picked up the purple stegosaurus, and the two of them began to combine. Trent jumped into the cockpit of the newly formed Megazord. The Terrorsaurus attacked the Megazord, but Trent stood his ground. He drew the blade and countered Terrorsaurus’s attacks. The Megazord then quickly jumped back and did a multitude of flips, slashing the Terrorsaurus with its tail. The Terrorsaurus was clearly hurt, but it still had enough strength to fight. “Dark energy blast!” It shouted as it unloaded a blast of energy from its horn. Trent’s Megazord began to spark. It was starting to come apart. “He needs help!” Rainbow shouted. “Right, let’s call in the Pefalazord,” Connor said as his morpher turned into an aqua-blue color, “That works too.” In the distance, a zord of the same color with a saw on its back approached the fight. “Alright, the Dimetrozord!” Trent yelled as the Dimetrozord attacked Terrorsaurus. Terrorsaurus tried to fight back, but the saw was able to cut through anything. “Dimetrozord! Combine!” Trent shouted as the Dimetrozord folded its legs and reached the saw out further. Trent’s Megazord got back up and attacked the Terrorsaurus with the saw. Terrorsaurus tried to fight back, but anything it attacked with was cut down by the saw. Then, the saw began to spin even faster as energy began to charge within it. The saw unleashed a powerful slash the severed the horn on the front of the Terrorsaurus. Then, Trent drew his blade from before and set it down on a hill. He charged the arm of the Megazord and shot the blade forward like a missile. The blade-missile made contact with the Terrorsaurus, bringing him down once and for all. Trent got back down to the ground and de-morphed as his friends approached, along with those horse things from earlier. “Dude, that was awesome,” Connor said. “Thanks, but what exactly was that thing doing here? And where exactly is here?” Trent asked. “We’ll explain on the way back to Ponyville,” Twilight said. “Where? Actually, nevermind, I’ll let you explain once we get there,” Trent replied. Before they left, Starlight noticed the Terrorsaurus’s horn on the ground. “Hey, should we bring this with us?” she asked the others. “Sure, as long as no one turns evil,” Ethan said. Meanwhile Zeltrax was extremely annoyed. Not only was his Terrorsaurus destroyed, but he was a beacon short. If that white ranger hadn’t shown up, Terrorsaurus would’ve defeated them for sure. He planted the next beacon in the ground. And teleported away. Luckily, he bought enough spare parts from Broodwing to make another one. And once all of them were planted, the rangers would be wishing that they were never born.
