Nate Silva was alone in the room that Steel used to collect evidence of the Storm King returning, crying. He couldn't believe it. The worst thing possible had happened to him: He was cast out, and abandoned by his own friends, all because he had a lack of trust for their teammate, Cozy Glow. He thought she had allied herself with Megan since she deployed the zord for Cozy's safety, but he was wrong. Somehow, Cozy went there, herself to save her friends, and the zords from Evox in their last big battle.
He was a little upset that she blackmailed him, and Zoey one time, but she really had changed. Nate didn't believe it. His friends did, and they turned on him for not trusting her OR Cozy's plans for taming the zord. The words he’d last heard from Twilight echoed in his head when they all scolded him for casting Cozy out, and made them not trust him: “You have a lot to think about.”
Nate realized he really did have a lot to think about. How could he have put security of Grid Battleforce over the trust of his own friends and allies? How could he not believe Megan or Cozy Glow? He’d trusted that young alicorn filly since their battle with BellTron, because of her realization that Earth and Equestria are very important in the universe. Now…would Cozy Glow even want to be his friend anymore, much less his teammate and ally?
"Why did I have to do it?" Nate thought. "Why did I have to ignore, Megan or Cozy all because we were trying to get the zord under control? Why did I have to feel so stupid, as to ignore the suggestions and safety?" Devon, Ben and their zords would be destroyed, The Storm King would win, his friends and teammates would never even speak to him again, all because of that zord being under the enemy's control. It was all his fault.
As he cried, Spike heard his voice as he flew in the lab and saw his friend in a sad state. "Nate," A familiar voice is heard. Nate looked up from his hands, and froze as he saw him. His eyes were red, bloodshot, and tired from all that crying.
"Spike, what...I thought I told you to help Devon and Ben out with the megazord." Nate said to him in surprise.
"I flew out of the zord, and decided to get help." He said. "What are you up to?"
"Nothing, nothing!" Nate said, as soon as he started to crying.
Spike looked worried, seeing a sad look on Nate's face. Something was not right here...
"Okay." He said in disbelief. "Oh, and by the way, I found this note on the front desk earlier." He gave him the letter, and he read it to himself.
Dear Nate."
"We are really hurt at how you treated Megan and I earlier and we would like you to come see us when you have calmed down a bit. It's hard to believe that you could go from being our friend to enemy in just one day. We all hope that you can try to forgive our friends, as well as trust yourself. We'll be ready to talk to you when you are ready."
"Yours Truly, Cozy Glow"
He saw Spike frowning at him disappointingly. "Alright Nate, what screw up did you do this time?" he asked with hs arms crossed.
Nate sighed. There was no way out. "I shut Megan and Cozy out when I had a plan to reprogram the Beast-X King Zord, and jumped to conclusions about thinking Cozy Glow blackmailing me."
"Nate, why would do such a thing?" Spike asked.
"Because I figured Megan would try to sabotage our system again, and I thought she and Cozy were doing wrong to us."
Spike hopped on his lab table and sat down, "Nate, just because someone knows about something you don't doesn't mean they're automatically evil about it, and that especially doesn't mean that you need to jump to conclusions about the zord being sabotaged. I'm actually quite surprised at you."
The genius stuttered and stammered trying to find words to defend himself, but the feelings of guilt and shame were creeping upon him. “I was just trying to look out for Grid Battleforce, and our friend's future here.”
Spike sighed, “Nate, you've helped us a lot of times with zords, weapons, and tech, and you're a great ranger and a friend. But, you’ve forgotten one important thing any good ranger would do… and that’s to listen!"
Now, Nate felt awful, and couldn’t excuse himself anymore, for not even bothering to hear the Megan or Cozy out, and Spike was right. He DID know his friends better than that.
"If I know one thing, it's that learning never stops, and friendship is one thing that is never to end in learning about." The dragon continued to tell him. "I know that Megan gave you a lot of bad blood, but Cozy never did! She reformed, because you guys helped her realize how important the universe really is! She and Megan both know this Beast-X King Zord 10 times better than anyone or anypony combined. Maybe, it's time for you to put your feelings aside and actually focus on accepting their help."
Nate quickly pondered the quick talk and, realized Spike was onto something. He decided that it was time to set things right, "You're right Spike, I should go and take care of this right now! I owe Megan and Cozy Glow an apology!" He was about to leave the lab. "Make sure Devon and Ben are okay!" he said walking out and closing the doors.
Spike sighed with exasperation. "And here, I thought Twilight and Starlight were the masters of freak-out." He thought out loud to himself.
Nate ran into the hallway of the base, trying to find both Megan and Cozy. "Megan! Cozy!" He called out. He heard no sound. He decided to keep searching for them, when he heard the voice of someone crying. He put his ear to the sound, and quickly identified it as a little kid's voice. “Wh-why does he hate me so much?” the kid's voice sobbed. “We used to be good f-friends.”
“Shhh, it’s okay,” the other voice soothed, which sounded like an adult girl's voice. “Nate doesn’t hate you, sweetie. He’s just a little…overwrought, that’s all.”
Nate instantly knew who those two voices belonged to. "Bingo!" he thought as he went to the two voices.
Inside the zord hangar, Cozy was crying to Megan about he hated her, and that they used to be good friends. Megan was trying to soothe her, telling her that Nate was just a little stressed about today.
“Overwrought is complaining about the c-color of the flowers in my m-mane, or the length of Rarity's h-hemline,” Cozy choked. “He’s going to r-ruin the z-zord!” Her sobs became muffled, no doubt as Megan pulled her close and let her cry into her arms. Or maybe it was her chest. Maybe they were hugging. Loving couples hugged. So did best friends, didn’t they?
“No, he won’t,” Megan said more firmly. “I won’t let him.”
At that moment, Nate entered the hangar and saw her embracing Cozy Glow, who was indeed crying. He had to make things right with them. The time to do it was now!
"Hey, Megan." He said, as he entered. "Hey, Cozy." He put his hand on the filly's shoulder. Cozy saw his hand on her, and got angry as she slapped it away.
"Don't touch me!" She snapped.
"I need your help." Nate started.
"Why don't you ask the commander for help?" Cozy said harshly, as Megan saw and gave him a death glare.
"It's my fault!" Nate confessed. "If I would have accepted both your help on this zord, none of this would have happened."
"That still doesn't give you the right to treat me like garbage!" Cozy yelled, as she pointed to him furiously. "You owe me an apology!"
"I know I do." Nate said regretfully. "...and I'm sorry."
"A real apology." Cozy said to him, not once looking at her friend.
"I'm sorry. I really am...sorry!" Nate said sadly as he sobbed and screamed at the same time. "I WANT YOU TO COME BACK!!!!" He sobbed into Megan's arm, as well as Cozy's mane. "I miss you...as my friend!"
"OK, quit being a baby." Cozy said, as she carefully pulled herself away from Megan's tight hug, and Nate's sobbing. She then flew up to Nate, and punched him in the arm.
"Ahh!" Nate said, as he switched to anger. "Why?!"
Cozy gave him an icy stare, and them smiled sweetly at him, as she booped him. "That's for not giving up on me." she said. Nate looked defiant at her, but them smiled.
He turned to Megan. "Do you forgive me, too?" he asked, calm but sad.
Megan thought about it, and got back up. "I do forgive you as well." she said. "It sucked for me when I was totally ignored, It's going to suck even worse if that zord remains untamed."
Nate sighed. "You're right." he said, as they left the hangar. “But, we have a new problem. Zoey said that you two both are the only ones able to help. So, I tried reprogramming the Beast-X King Zord system remotely, but it went into battle mode.”
Cozy and Megan both gasped in shock, as they both knew what they were up against. “We were afraid that would happen.” Megan said, worriedly. “The incoming signal activated an auto-defence mechanism I designed.”
Nate was surprised that they told them that. He didn’t know that installed that into the Zord. “Wow!” He said in surprise. “That’s a pretty clever feature...but, how do we get around it?”
“The only way to reprogram the Zord is to physically attach to the Zord, the way the Storm King attached that dart.” Cozy told him seriously. “Do you have anything that could shoot the new programming into the Zord?”
Nate got an idea. “I’ve been working on something new that might just work!” He said in exclamation excitedly. “Come on!” They all made a beeline for the lab, and saw an arrow, which it already had gorilla and jackrabbit DNA imprinted on it. “This is a prototype of the Ultra Bow.” He told them.
“I see that you’ve put both jackrabbit, and gorilla DNA into it.” Cozy said, as she inspected the fine piece of weaponry. “We’ll need to upload lion DNA too, so that it can be compatible.” Nate nodded, just as Ravi, Steel and Zoey came in the room.
“You’re right. Thanks.” Nate said.
“So, you finally decided to put your feelings aside, and trust both Cozy and Megan again.” Zoey asked. Nate nodded.
“And, you’re working together, and you’re back to being friends again.” Ravi asked.
“Affirmative.” Nate answered. “It’s a long story about what happened earlier, but we’re all now on the same side.” He picked up a blank arrow. “Step 1: We need to get the programming into the arrow.”
Cozy, Megan, Zoey, Ravi and Steel looked at each other, and nodded. “Let’s do it.” Megan said, as they started to get to work on a brand-new weapon!
Meanwhile, The Beast-X Hydro Megazord was taking a tough beating with the Beast-X King Zord, and it was ready to finish it off, as it charged.
Devon, and Ben were ready too, as they got the Megazord to charge at it. “Come on!” They both shouted, as the Megazord advanced toward it. They traded blow for blow, the zord’s attacks were evenly matched. Neither Zord could get into each other’s defenses. As they were fighting, the Morph-X level on the Zords was dropping rapidly.
“Hey, guys?” Ben asked. “We’re running low on Morph-X here!”
Back at the base, Nate put in the dart in the Ultra Bow. “It’s almost done, guys!” Zoey contacted them. “It’s shouldn’t be long.”
The team was ready to begin the new weapon transformation. “Start the sequence!” Nate said.
Megan nodded, as she turned to Cozy. “Care to do the honours, Cozy?” She asked.
“I thought you’d never ask!” She said, as she hit a button. “Initiating Lion DNA Morph!” She shouted, as the Lioj DNA surged through the Bow, making it change shape. When it finished, the bow now had a lion head on it, as well as its DNA imprinted into it.
The hero’s unplugged it from the cables. “Phenomenal!” Nate said excitedly. “It’s now the Beast-X King Ultra Bow!”
“Amazing!” Steel said, as he got his brother’s attention. “It’s time for the Mane event...with the lion!”
They all started to leave, as Nate turned back to Megan. “Hey, Megan! Great work!” He thanked her. “And, I’m not just saying that. You too, Cozy!”
The girl geniuses smiled. “Thanks.” Megan said.
“Aw, it was nothing!” Cozy said, mockingly.
“Now, go.” Megan said. Nate smiled, as he left the base.
“Come on, Cozy!” He called out.
“I’m on my way!” The filly said, as she flew out and followed him.
As they left, Nate contacted the Mane Six, and Starlight on his wristcom. “Guys, I need you to meet and Cozy over there!” He said urgently.
They arrived at the Pine Ridge woods, just as the Mane Six arrived. "Hey, Cozy!" Rainbow said, as they saw her and the others, including Nate. "Nate?" The ponies all scowled at him.
"What are y'all doing here?" Applejack asked, angrily. "Haven't we made it clear that we don't want you here?!"
"I'll explain later..." Nate told them, as he pointed to the two megazords. "Look!"
They all saw the megazords fighting each other, and everyone was shocked. "Oh, man!" Rainbow said, surprised!
The heroes all knew what they needed to do! "We've got one shot at this!" Cozy said in alert! At that moment, Robo-Blaze, Robo-Roxy and Tempest arrived with an army of tronics, blocking their way!
"Huh?!" They asked as they saw them.
"Blaze and Roxy?" Fluttershy asked in shock.
"We destroyed you, Avatars!" Rainbow snarled at them.
"Wrong, Rainbow Crash!" Robo-Roxy sneered at her. "That was the old 'Roxy'!"
"And, this time..." Robo-Blaze said to them. "We're brand spanking new!"
"Tempest?!" Twilight asked in shock. "I thought I reformed you!"
"Well, Twilight..." Tempest said, as she smiled evilly. "I'm back, and in with the...wrong crowd, or the right one...depending on how you look at it!"
Ravi turned to Nate. "We'll take care of them!" he told him. "You take the shot!" Nate nodded, and left the scene as the remaining heroes went for the tronics, and Robo Generals.
Blaze, Roxy, and Tempest were ready too. "Let's go!" Robo-Roxy said, as they charged toward them.
Steel, and Rainbow punched a few tronics in the gut, just as Robo-Blaze punched Steel in the gut. "Ahh!" He said, as he backed away. "Watch it!" Robo-Blaze just smirked as he tried to go for them. However, the Wonderbolt and Beast Bot threw strong punches, making him stagger back! He tried to go for them again, only to be punched back again. Steel retaliated with a kick, and Rainbow contributed by flipping him over. Robo-Blaze was furious, as he was ready to charge at them again!
Zoey, and Robo-Roxy both clashed as the latter dodged Zoey's punches, and tried to push back. The violet-suited robot tried to punch her, but Zoey dodged her. "ZOEY!" Rarity shouted. Zoey turned, and got out of the way, as Rarity, Starlight, and Twilight blasted her back. They regrouped, and were ready for another go with her!
Ravi was taking on a few tronics, as he pushed them back with a foam sign. Applejack, and Fluttershy both helped with the cowgirl, kicking a few of them down the ground, and the other using her tail to whip them down easily!
Tempest was coming for him as well! Ravi threw the foam sign at one tronics, and went for Tempest. She tried to blast him, but Ravi dodged her blasts, and kicked her to the ground. But, she got back up, and was ready for more!
Elsewhere, not too far from the fight the rangers and ponies were in, Daring Do and Trixie arrived at a dense area in the woods as they heard a few muffled sounds in the woods. "What was that?" Daring asked, as she and Trixie arrived at a safe spot.
Trixie put her ear closer, and heard it too. "Sounds like it came from over there!" She pointed to the area.
"Alright, then. We gotta get to that zord, and shut it down before it does any more damage to the forest!" The Adventurer said bravely.
"Sounds good to me!" Trixie said gallantly. "And if things get weird for you, just let me know. I've got your flank."
"Is that a promise?" Daring asked, confused.
"Not just a promise." the showmare answered boldly. "A great and powerful promise!" She threw down one of her smoke bombs, which went off. The two tried to cough it out, as the smoke cleared.
"Well, I couldn't ask for more than that." Daring said, as she waved her hat like a fan to get rid of the smoke, before turning to Trixie. "If we're gonna do this, let's do it." They were about to turn, when they were face-to-face with a cluster of tronics. She, and Trixie were shocked upon seeing the foot-soldiers corner, and surround them.
"Tronics!" Trixie groaned. "Why did it have to be Tronics?" She whispered to Daring. "What are we going to do, Daring?"
Daring scanned the area for an opening, and smiled. "I've got an idea!" she said bravely as she jumped over the small group of Tronics. "Follow me!"
Trixie followed suit, as the other tronics followed them, squishing the first cluster. The two ran as fast as they could as the tronics chased them. They both stopped in shock as they saw themselves at the edge of a cliff. They looked back to see them on their tails.
"What do we do now?" Trixie asked, scared.
"This is the part where you 'got my flank!'" Daring said, as she jumped up, and caught a vine. "Grab on, Trixie!" She called out!
Trixie was nervous as she saw the cliff, and the tronics heading toward her. She closed her eyes, took a deep breath, and jumped up, and literally caught her by the flanks, as she was lifted into the air, holding onto Daring.
The Tronics stopped, and bumped into each other, making them fall off the cliff! Daring saw them fall off, and laughed heroically. Trixie saw them fall off and laughed like she did...only more maniacally. "We did it!" she shouted happily.
"Yeah, we did, 'Great and Powerful Assistant!" Daring said, smiling sweetly at her, as Trixie blushed. They eventually landed on the other side of the cliff, and were safe.
"Phew!" Trixie said, as she wiped her forehead off. "That was close!"
"Yeah. It was." Daring said, as she did the same too. They heard some fighting to turned to see the Beast-X Hydro Megazord going at it with the Beast-X King Zord. The two were surprised as they saw this.
“What are those things?” Daring asked, as she saw how big, and immense they were. “They look like the size of skyscrapers!”
“Those are Megazords!” Trixie whispered to her.
Daring quickly understood. “We gotta get to that Zord!” She whispered urgently. Trixie nodded, and were about to go to that Zord, when they saw the rangers fighting, along with the ponies. Daring got a good look at one in particular. A cyan Pegasus with a rainbow mane and tail. Daring was shocked to see her here!
Trixie was shocked too, as she got a good look at who else was fighting. It was a lilac colored unicorn with a purple/teal mane. “Is that...Starlight?” She asked.
“And...Rainbow Dash?” The adventurer asked as well.
“It appears that way.” Trixie told her. “What robot, or robotrons are they fighting now?”
“Looks like they could use a hand!” Daring said, as she and Trixie went to the scene of the battle. “Come on!”
Meanwhile, Nate and Cozy arrived at the fight of the two Megazords as well. It was time to put their plan into motion!
Nate contacted Devon. “Devon, Ben, we need a clear shot.” Nate told him. “Just for a second!”
The rangers got the call loud and clear. “Say no more!” Devon acknowledged.
“We’re on it!” Ben said. “Let’s try a high-powered punch!”
“Redirecting Morph-X!” Ribbit and Cruise both said, as they redirected the energy over to them, and got the Zord ready,
“Here it comes, Guys!” Devon said, as they got ready.
Nate and Cozy both got ready as they aimed their weapons at the Zord. At the same time, the Beast-X Hydro Megazord and Beast-X King Zord were both about to punch each other. “HI-YAH!” They both shouted, as the two Zords performed a super powerful punch!
“You’re up!” Devon called out.
It was time for Nate and Cozy to take the shot. “POWER BOLT!” Nate shouted, as he fired the arrow, and Cozy shot out a beam of magic at the Zord, making it enveloped in blue light. The Zord backed away from the Megazord, as it’s eyes flashed red.
“Disengage!” Ben shouted as the Hydro and Wheeler zords disengaged from the Racer Zord, leaving Devon on his own.
“Come on....come on!” Nate said with worry.
“You can do it!” Cozy cheered.
“Something’s happening!” Devon said in shock. And it was true: Something was happening! The Zord transformed into lion mode, and roared out, as the red glow broke from him, making it free of the Storm King’s control!
“Oh, Yes!” Nate and Cozy shouted in victory as their plan worked.
“Whoo hoo!” Devon cheered. “It worked!”
“Oh yeah!” Ben cheered as well.
“Yes!” Zoey shouted, as she was fighting Robo-Roxy.
“Yeah!” Ravi shouted, as kicked a few tronics in the gut.
“AWESOME!” Rainbow squealed in excitement.
“YEE HAH!” Applejack cheered, as she removed her cowgirl hat.
“Alright, Nate!” Twilight shouted, as Rarity cheered in a happy yell.
“Yay!” Fluttershy cheered.
“WHOO HOO! GO NATE!” Pinkie said, as she whipped out her party cannon, and fired a huge ball of confetti.
“You did it!” Starlight said in victory.
“Oh, they did it!” Megan said in relief and victory.
Commander Shaw was proud of this victory, and so was General Burke. “You all did it.” The commander said, smiling.
“Excellent work, wouldn’t you say, Mayor?” General Burke asked Mayor Daniels, as he got a sour look and left the lab.
The commander contacted Devon. “Devon, Ben, Take the Beast-X King Zord back to its hangar. Then, you can help the others.”
“Copy that, Commander!” Devon said. The Zord roared to Devon, and he wasn’t sure what he wanted it to do.
“He wants us to get on!” Cruise said.
“Alright. If he says so!” Devon said. The racer Zord hopped on the Beast-X King Zord, and grabbed on to it’s ‘cycle handles’, as it revved up. “Thataboy!” Devon said, as he was ready to ride off into the sunset.
Back to the rangers as they were fighting the tronics army. The Robo Genrals and Tempest were ready to fight, as they and the tronics surrounded them, as the heroes regrouped.
“You deal with the red ranger!” Tempest told Robo-Blaze. “Roxy and I can handle this!”
Blaze nodded. “I’ll take him down with a surprise gigadrone from Grubber.” He said, as he got out his key and teleported to his Zord.
Robo-Roxy got out her key, and morphed into her Robo Ranger form, ready to fight. “There’s no way out, Rangers!” She said to them.
However, they had to differ! “We’ll just see about that!” Rainbow said, as they all nodded.
“IT’S MORPHIN’ TIME!” Nate shouted. But before they could morph, a tan and discorded rainbow blur came and wiped out a few tronics.
"What?!" Robo-Roxy asked, as she and Tempest tried to figure out who was taking their foot soldiers out.
"Who's doing this?!" Tempest asked in rage. At that moment, she and Robo-Roxy were both knocked down to the ground, as the blur took out a good batch of the tronics.
"That's as close as you'll come, you metalheads!" a heroic voice shouted. The others didn't know who said that, and were curious.
However, Rainbow Dash heard that voice, and remembered it. "Wait...I KNOW that voice!" She said in realization, as the blur flew up, and touched the ground, revealing to them a tan pegasus with a discolored rainbow mane, wearing a safari jacket, and hat as well. Rainbow instantly recognized the figure standing before them as her number one literary idol, and adventurer: Daring Do!
Rainbow gasped in shock upon seeing her here. "Ohmygoshohmygoshohmygoshohmygoshohmygosh!" She said.
"Did you think I'd forget a face?" Daring said, smiling at her. She clunked a tronic on the head and regrouped with them.
“Haven’t you forgotten that we tend to work alone?” Rainbow asked her jokingly.
“Have you forgotten that I’m lucky I don’t?” The adventurer asked, as she smiled at her, and the others. She saw the Tronics advancing toward them. “Now, it's morphin' time!" She said, as the heroes nodded and activated their morphers.
"ACTIVATE BEAST POWERS!" They all shouted, as they morphed into their ranger forms.
"You guys ready?" Rainbow asked everyone as the others nodded.
"Oh, yeah! Always!" Daring said, as she and the heroes were ready to duke it out with the villains.
Steel kicked a few tronics in the gut while, Rarity, Twilight and Starlight blasted a few, making them disintegrate!
Fluttershy even swiftly kicked Tempest to the ground, as she tried to blast her, but to no avail.
Nate kicked a few as well, and used the new Ultra Bow to strike a few down in an instant!
Daring, Rainbow, Applejack, and Pinkie Pie swiftly kicked a few tronics to the ground, while Pinkie and Applejack bucked a few down, and the two speedy Pegasus flew up to strike them.
At that moment, a red Anubis looking Zord had deployed RIGHT in front of the Racer and King zords. Devon took notice at what he saw. “Uh, oh! Here comes trouble!”He said in shock, as he saw what he was up against. Blaze’s Megazord was back!
“HA HA!” Robo-Blaze cackled evilly before Devon, and Ben. “Remember my Zord? There's NOTHING you can destroy that Grubber can't rebuild!”
“Blaze’s Zord is back?!” Ben asked in shock. “I thought we defeated that thing!”
“Looks like this battle’s not over, yet!” Devon as said as their zords got ready!
“But, we’re almost out of Morph-X!” Cruise alerted him.
“Then, we gotta move!” Devon said, as he revved up the racer, and king zords, making them advance to the evil Zord.
Robo-Blaze was ready to make his move! “Say cheese!” He called out, as his Zord fired red beams from its ‘hands’ at the zords.
“Oh, no!” Devon shouted as the zords tried to dodge it.
“Take evasive action!” Ben shouted.
Blaze cackled. “How about we heat things up?” He asked, as his Zord fired beams at them, covering them in a cloud of fire. It looked like the zords were seemingly hit, but they emerged from the fire cloud, unscathed, and the Beast-X King Zord has already transformed into cycle mode, as they zoomed toward Robo-Blaze.
“You missed, Partner!” Ben shouted, as they zoomed for round 2 of this hideous Zord Beast!
Meanwhile, the heroes were still taking down the Tronics, Robo-Roxy and Tempest, as Zoey and Cozy both kicked her down, while Cozy fired at her. Applejack and Starlight both kicked Tempest down to the ground too.
The two evil girl generals tumbled down, and regrouped as they got up in anger. “NO!” They both shouted.
Nate was about to do the final count on them, when a magic bean from out of nowhere appeared, and whizzed by him. “WHOA!” He said in shock. “Guys! Look out!”
They all took notice, and dodged the myriad of magic blasts, that hit the tronics, and sent the girl generals down. “AHHH!” Tempest shouted, as she was hit hard. She got back up, and rubbed her cheek in pain. Robo-Roxy got up, and furious to find out who did that to her.
“THAT’S IT!” Robo-Roxy said, as she aimed her blasters at the magic blast. “Prepare to die, you little sh—!” She was cut off, when a blue blur zoomed right toward her and punched her and Tempest in the face, sending them both down to the ground!
“SHOOOT!” Tempest shouted in shock and rage, trying to recover from the attack.
“Now’s your chance!” Daring said, pointing to the two villains.
Nate seized this chance to get out the Beast-X King Ultra Bow. “You got it!” He said, as Cozy came right by his side. “BEAST-X KING POWER BOLT!” He and Cozy both shouted as their combined blasts, and the mystery magic blast hit Tempest, making her stagger back, and Robo-Roxy exploded in an instant!
“ROXY!” Tempest shouted, as she saw the heroes before her, and she knew she was outnumbered. She growled. “You got lucky this time!” She said, as she teleported away. “But, I’ll be back!”
“Phenomenal!” Nate said in excitement. “Robo-Roxy’s toast!”
“Bullseye!” Steel said as the others came right over to him.
“Wait...” Rainbow said as she and Daring were both in shock. “Blaze and Roxy are...ROBOTS?!”
“No way!” Daring said in shock as well.
“Yeah, they made robot clones of the original avatars!” Nate answered them.
“This...changes...everything!” Rainbow said in shock, horror and excitement all at the same time.
“It sure does!” Nate said. “Thanks for helping us!”
“Thanks, but I can’t take all the credit. I had help with that magic blast.” Daring told them.
Just then, a blue unicorn with a silver crescent mane ran out of the bushes, and met up with them. “Pretty good show, wouldn’t you say, Glim Glam?” She asked smugly.
Starlight instantly knew who the unicorn was and was shocked. “Trixie?!” She asked. “You were helping Daring take on Roxy and Tempest the whole time?”
“Well, of course it was me.” Trixie answered. “You didn’t think it was Discord, did you?”
“Uh, no?” Starlight answered, giggling nervously.
“And if it was Discord, wouldn’t he have given an arm and a leg to thank for it?” Steel asked, jokingly as the others all laughed.
“Yeah.” Rainbow finished laughing.
The three Zords were coming right at the evil Zord, ready to strike. “Our turn!” Devon said.
“Let’s hit him with it!” Ben said, as the racer Zord on the cycle and Hydro Zord revved up. They lifted their zords high up, as the Zord was ready to fire again!
“Rapid blast!” Ben shouted, as he launched a few hydro bombs at it, while the two other zords together hit it with a cool wheel punch. This weakened the evil Zord.
“No!” Robo-Blaze shouted, as his Zord fell down to the ground. The three good zords, however, landed safely as the King Zord changed to lion mode.
“Now, that’s wild!” Ben said in excitement. However, Blaze’s Zord got back up, and from the looks of it, he wasn’t done yet!
The others on the ground all looked up, and saw the Racer Zord, and Beast-X King Zord fighting Blaze’s Zord. She was shocked, and knew what she had to do! “Devon’s in trouble!” She said in alarm.
“Let’s go!” Cozy said, as she and Dash flew up to the Beast-X King Zord’s cockpit to help their friend.
“Blaze isn’t finished, but we’re out of Morph-X!” Cruise said urgently.
Devon realized the Racer Zord was out of energy, and couldn’t finish the evil Zord off. He had to switch zords! “Then that means I’ll have to finish him with the Beast-X King Zord!” Devon told his beast bot.
“You won’t have to!” A voice called out.
“What?!” Devon wasn’t sure as to who said that. But then, he saw two familiar Pegasi entering the other Zord.
“Don’t worry, Devon! We’ll take care of it for you!” Rainbow said, bravely.
“What...RAINBOW?!?!” Devon said in shock, and a little bit of fury.
“Everything’s under control!” Cozy told him from the Zord. She diverted her attention to the evil amber-suited robot. “We meet again, Blaze!” She told him grimly.
Robo-Blaze heard that voice and instantly recognized who he was dealing with now! “So we do, Cozy?” He asked smugly. “Let’s see if you can handle my Zord again!” His Zord got ready to fire at the King Zord.
Cozy was ready as she turned to Rainbow. “Let’s show him who the real king of the jungle is!” She said to her.
“Roger!” Rainbow said, as activated the transformation code.
“BEAST-X KING ZORD...BATTLE MODE!” The two fliers shouted, as the lion Zord changed shape, and morphed into battle. They were ready!
Blaze’s Zord was back up, and ready to fight, just as the King Zord was ready to charge. “You should’ve known when to give up, Blaze!” Rainbow shouted.
Devon and Cruise were watching the fight unfold before their eyes, and were excited. “Get them, Dash and Cozy!” Devon shouted in excitement as the Zord used its staff to strike at the evil Zord.
“Let’s crank things up!” Cozy shouted, as the blue and navy Zord used its staff to slash it harder, and Blaze’s Zord as taking a real beating from the good side.
“BEAST-X KING FULL BLAZE!” Cozy shouted, as the lion-faced shield fired a beam of fire at Blaze’s Zord. This attack weakened the evil Zord again, as it staggered back, and was knocked down.
The two felt like it was time to give him the final count. “All right, Dash!” Cozy said. “Let’s finish this!” Dash nodded, as they brought the Zord up to full power. “Alright! System’s at full power!” Blaze’s Zord got back up.
“Let’s do this!” Rainbow shouted, as the Zord performed its finisher! “BEAST-X KING IMPACT!” The Beast-X King Zord’s staff glowed light blue as it slashed in an “X” formation, sending Blaze’s Zord down and out for the count.
“No!” Robo-Blaze shouted. “Curse you, Power Rangers! And you too, Daring Do! You will pay for this!” The Zord exploded once again, as he and his Zord were no more...for now.
“You did it!” Ben called out from his Hydro Zord.
“You’re an idiot, Dash!” Devon said in relief. “But, I’m glad you’re an idiot!”
“Yes!” The others shouted as they all cheered for their friends in victory.
“All right, Rainbow!” Daring shouted, as the Zord posed in victory.
“We did it, Rainbow!” Cozy said, as she hugged her so hard with happiness.
“You bet we did!” Rainbow said as she returned the hug. “Robo-Blaze eliminated!” She shouted in triumph. The heroes jumped out of their zords, and met up with the others on ground.
“That was awesome how you two handled that Zord!” Devon said in excitement.
“And the way you slashed Blaze’s Zord?” Ben told them. “Genius!”
Rainbow and Cozy both blushed as they smiled. “It was nothing!” Rainbow said, as Cozy nodded.
They ran into the others, as Daring ran up to the two fliers and hugged them. “You did it!” She said happily as she hugged them tightly.
Rainbow and Cozy both felt like they had no choice but to return the hug as well. “We couldn’t have done it without you, Daring.” Rainbow said contentedly.
“Whoa, hold on. What?” Devon asked, as they broke the hug and he saw the Rainbow Dash lookalike. “Alright, ‘Tan Rainbow Dash’, who are you and what are you doing here?”
Rainbow flew up to her, and put a wing over her. “Guys, this is my friend, Daring Do!” She told them. “She’s my idol, and a good adventurer.” Daring blushed as she smiled.
“Wait...you know this pony?” Ben asked.
“Yeah.” Daring told them. “I’ve known her since she and I found the Ring of Destiny. Since then, she and I have gone on a few adventures occasionally. We stopped villains similar to what you faced. Ahuizotl, Dr. Cabelleron, and even countless swamp beasts. You name it!” She smiled. “She and I are good pals.”
“Twilight told me about her adventures when I was in the hospital one time.” Rainbow told them. “Did you know she also secretly famous author, A.K. Yearling?” Everyone gasped in shock and excitement, and Daring was surprised at that.
“Wait, this adventurer is also an author?” Ravi asked.
“Phenomenal!” Steel added. “I never knew anyone who is a hero, and an author!”
“You’re friends with a book author who is secretly Daring Do?” Cozy asked in shock. “That is so awesome!”
“Dash, you promised you wouldn’t tell them that.” Daring said, as she gritted her teeth.
“Sorry.” Her friend confessed.
Daring smiled. “It’s alright.” She said. “And, it’s great and exciting that I am finally meeting the Power Rangers! I mean...you go on adventures with them almost every day?”
“Pretty much.” Pinkie told her.
“Wow!” Daring said, dreamily. “I wish I could go on adventures with those guys!”
“And Daring here is a lot like me!” Dash said to them. “Adventurous, fierce, and undeniably, unquestionably, unstoppable!”
Daring giggled. “Yeah, I am!” She said. “And, I see you’ve already met Trixie.” She pointed to her as she unleashed a few illusional tricks through her cape.
“Of course, we’ve heard about her.” Nate said. “Great and Powerful, right?”
Trixie blushed a little bit. “Just Trixie will do.” She said, as she shook the Ranger’s hands.
“Well, I gotta say this was one of the most exciting adventures we ever had today!” Devon said.
“You bet!” Rainbow said. “You won’t believe what I have to tell you guys when we get back to base!” She flew up. “Let’s go!”
The others decided to follow her back to the base. “I bet this was one of the most powerful adventures you were ever on!” Trixie said happily.
“I agree. We’ll come too. Trixie and I sure would like to know more about Grid Battleforce.” Daring added.
“Sure thing.” Devon said. “Let’s head back.”
“We can’t wait to tell you what’s been going on!” Starlight said, as the heroes all enjoyed a nice walk back to base, where a nice victory celebration would be well in order.
