Episode 18: Prank You Very Much
EPISODE EIGHTEEN
Bronc was working at his tool-table, fiddling with cybernetics and circuitry. “Right, now where’s my screwdriver?” he found it next to him, but when he grabbed it he suddenly found he couldn’t put it down. “What… What is this…?!” he growled.
From within the shadows, behind him, a mysterious figure gawked at him and cackled.
Marla was prettying herself up again as she gazed at her reflection in the mirror. “Mmm… Mwa! Lookin’ pretty hot.” She complemented as she gazed at her reflection. “I think a little more powder couldn’t hurt.”
She reached for one of her many compacts and began to powder her face, but suddenly she started to feel really itchy and began to scratch her face furiously, leading her to ruin her makeup and she screamed, but still had to scratch.
That same figure watched at her from the rafters and cackled again.
Even Keto was about to meet with a similar fate, as he was in the pantry section he had set up, and just finished his snack. He let out a huge belch, “Ah… time for desert. My favorite, chocolate-coconut-cream pie…” but as he prepared to take the pie and eat it, the pie just flung up on a spring and hit him in the face.
The pie slid off, and Keto felt horribly unamused, and then he heard the sound of someone laughing at him, in a really goofy voice. “You should’ve seen the look on your face!”
Keto turned round and saw a creature with head like a can with springy-snake like objects popping out like hair. His arms looked like pie-flingers, and attached to a body like a giant whoopee cushion, but it was solid not soft.
“Another victim of the great Prankstar!” he gloated.
“You…!” Bronc shouted as he entered the room with more tools stuck to his body “You did all this!”
Marla, still itching and scratching from head-to-toe came in. “You’re going to pay for this!” she snarled. The trio looked ready to pounce…!
“No!” Vulcan shouted and fired a couple of blasts by their feet making them stop. “I asked him to pull off all these pranks as a test. No harm is to come to him!”
The trio were confused, “You set him free?” asked Keto.
“Yes!” sneered Vulcan, and he explained how Prankstar begged to be released promising he’d get the rangers for them, for he was a master prankster, responsible for humiliating and trapping many within his clutches through simply delinquency.
“That… and I do enjoy a good prank as well as the next person.” Vulcan said with a guilty snicker.
“You mean you’re going to get the rangers simply by pranking them?” asked Bronc “That doesn’t seem very probable.”
Prankstar felt insulted, “Oh, these jokes were just pitiful. Just wait until I get into the juicy stuff. The rangers will never know what hit them until it’s too late.”
With that, he headed off to plan his treachery.
Vulcan seemed fairly impressed.
(Que Intro)
That very morning, Rhymey and Fluttershy were walking down the halls of the school, hand-in-hand, and they reached Fluttershy’s locker.
His was a few lockers, quite convenient for them both, but when Fluttershy opened her locker, out popped a snake that frightened her and made her shriek and fall down onto her bottom. Other students laughed at her, but Rhymey dashed over and noticed the snake…
“A rubber snake,
It’s completely fake.”
Then he helped his trembling girlfriend up. She felt so embarrassed as well as freaked out, “I don’t like practical jokes like this.” she whimpered.
Rhymey didn’t like that she was frightened and stirred up, but he also couldn’t help but chuckle softly, which earned him a sour stare from Fluttershy.
Rainbow was outside in the field working on her soccer skills, which she liked to do every chance she got, but the warning bell rang and it was almost time for class. “Rats!” she groaned.
She then walked over to the bench to change out of her cleats and put her boots on, but as soon as she put her foot inside… SQUISH!! “What the…?!” she shouted as she pulled her foot out to find her sock were covered in red spaghetti sauce that had been laced inside her boots, “Ugh…!”
Even Sunset was about to have a misfortune as she stopped by the soda dispenser, only to mysteriously find her favorite soda was already in the catcher bin. At first she felt it was her lucky day getting a free soda, until she opened the bottle and took a single sip, and she gagged! It tasted like her most hated soda, and she proved it by peeling off the label on the bottle to reveal the actual label underneath. “Oh, no…!” she groaned.
Followed by the sound of little girls giggling hysterically and the Cutiemark Crusaders came out from the girls’ washroom. “You looked kinda thirsty, so we left ya a little somethin’.” teased Applebloom.
The other girls giggled, and though Sunset was annoyed, it was hard for her not to laugh at her own self.
The other rangers came along; all of them looking a mixture of slightly amused, but more annoyed. “At it again, huh girls?” asked Rainbow.
“Yep, this is our prankster day.” Sweetie Belle said as she held up a book she and her friends had been reading, entitled “1001 Ways to Pull a Harmless Practical Joke.”
“I don’t think it’s really nice to pull these pranks on people, girls.” said Fluttershy.
“Ah, come on. It’s perfectly harmless.” said Scootaloo, “It’s actually quite funny.”
The rangers couldn’t help but each hold in a laugh, not wanting to admit the fun in things. “And this year, we’re ready for you, Buddy.”
Her cousin gave her a playful glare, “Oh, really…?”
“Yeah, really…”
Buddy wasn’t as easy a victim for pranks and tricks. It was like he had some build in radar that could see them coming from a-hundred miles away. The Crusaders made it their solemn mission to prank him at least once!
“Well, good luck, girls…” Buddy said, holding out his hand for a high-five with his cousin. She was about to slap his hand, when he swerved and grabbed her wrist exposing the buzzer she had on her hand, “Got’cha!”
“Hey, no fair…!” DD grumbled. Her cousin chuckled “I’ll be watching you girls.” And then he went off to class.
The rangers snickered softly.
“See ya, girls.” said Sunset, and she and the others headed off to class.
As the girls walked off to their elementary class, they swore amongst each other as DD proclaimed, “We are going to try every possible thing until we find a way to prank Buddy.”
“Yeah, this is the year we finally get him.” agreed Sweetie.
“But how are we gonna get at him?” asked Applebloom, “He’s as sharp as a sewin’ needle. He gets us all the time.”
“Well, we’ll find something.” said Scootaloo “And we can still tease the others in the meantime.”
The girls snickered.
Meanwhile, deep in town, Prankstar was already setting up for his pranks. “This is going to be a hoot.” he snickered.
Before long, practically everyone in the area fell victim to his traps.
Those who walked through doors ended getting soaked in green slime which magically rendered them immobile. Others simply touched their car doors, or pressed switched to change the traffic-lights at crosswalks, or even picked up payphones, and received nasty shocks of electricity, keeping them bound and trapped.
Some people innocently sat down on benches, outdoor tables, and suddenly became stuck-down, unable to get up again.
Prankster practically fell over laughing at the humiliation he caused. “And this is just the beginning…” he said to himself “The rangers are bind to coming sooner or later, and when the do… the joke will be on them.”
The elementary students only had a half day and were let out of school early, but all the rest of that morning, the rangers fell victim to more of the crusaders jokes.
Sunset sat on a whoopee-cushion in class, making everyone laugh at her. “Girls!” she grumbled
In Gym class, Rainbow fell for another sporting trick: She kicked a soccer ball, only to realize, too late, that it was tired down to the ground on a lopped steak, causing the ball to come back at her and forcing her to jump.
“Girls!” she growled.
Even Rhymey and Fluttershy fell victim to another clever little trap: The girls somehow managed to hide a little noise maker in Fluttershy’s notebook, so when she opened the cover, it SCREAMED, and jumped into Rhymey’s arms which frightened him as well.
Other students were laughing, even the teacher couldn’t help but laugh a bit before telling everyone to take their seats, but Fluttershy and Rhymey were far from amused.
“Not again!” groaned Fluttershy.
“This is really a pain.” rhymed Rhymey.
The girls had been spying on the rangers each and every time they pulled a successful prank, and all exchanged chuckles and high-fives. “We are on fire!” Sweetie gloated.
“Yeah, but let’s see if Buddy’s fallen for anything yet.”
Unfortunately for them, Buddy remained as slick and as clever as ever. He didn’t fall for a single trap.
-When his opened his locker, a snake jumped out at him, and he didn’t even flinch, but just smiled.
-When he took a moment to tend to his flower beds outside, he already figured some of the flowers were fake and that squirt-water. He just shielded himself with the strong cover of his notebook and plucked the fake flowers out.
-Not even walking under a bucket of confetti over the door trick worked, he just walked right under it and swerved out of the way.
-He went to the boys’ washroom, and a windup mouse crawled through his cubicle. The girls had let it in through the door without actually going inside.
“You’ll have to do better than that, Girls.” Buddy called to them.
The girls were really getting frustrated.
“Dang, he’s tough.” groaned Applebloom.
“Well, we’ll just have to get tougher then.” said Scootaloo.
“Ahem…” Principal Cadance said while tapping her foot. The girls nervously looked round, and saw herself and Twilight looking disappointingly at them. “Shouldn’t you girls be going home by now?” Cadance asked rhetorically.
“Yes, Principal Cadance.” the girls all said.
“Very, good, and no more of these practical jokes, either. Save them for the playground, but not here.”
“Yes, Principal Cadance.” the girls repeated, and they walked shamefully away.
That was when Buddy came out from the washroom. “Hey, come on. Take it easy on them. They don’t mean any harm.”
“Maybe, but this is a high-school, not a circus.” said Twilight.
“Twilight’s right.” added Cadance, “Although, as much as I enjoy a good joke better than the next person, they shouldn’t even wandering this part of the school anyway, and we can’t have them doing all this either. It causes disruption.”
Buddy couldn’t argue with that, and then he excused himself to go join his friends for lunch, while Twilight walked with her Sister-in-law to have lunch with her in the main office, and to check up on Spike.
“I wonder how the girls managed to pull all these pranks off without being seen anyway.” Twilight wondered “I mean it’s not even mathematically feasible. Less that anyone couldn’t be aware of what was bound to happen.”
Suddenly, Vice Principal Luna came in, sneezing hard. She blew her nose with a hankie and remarked, “Somebody doused my desk with… snee… snee… snee… AH-CHOO! …Sneeze Powder.”
Cadance and Twilight rolled their eyes, believing it was the crusaders again, despite the improbability they could’ve done that.
Then Cadance sat in her chair at her desk,
…SQUISH!!
There was a brief silence, and then she stood up softly and carefully as the back of her skirt and blazer were coated in green squishy paint.
The ladies suddenly heard the sound of a familiar snicker, but not of the crusaders, but Spike, under the desk. “So that’s where I left my toy alligator. I told Twilight not to get the squishy kind.”
The three ladies were half amused, but also half annoyed. “So you did these things, Spike?” Twilight asked practically scorning him, and Spike shamefully but more proudly admitted it, “After seeing the girls at it, I just couldn’t resist. Besides, it’s been a little boring around here anyway.”
Twilight was now very disappointed in Spike. “Aw, go on, Twilight…” Spike said “Here, have one of these.” he passed her a single ping-pong ball.
She picked it up on her fingers and looked at it awkwardly. “Why would I want this?” but suddenly she realized, “No-No! Wait…!”
“SO YOU CAN ADD IT TO THE REST!!” Spike shouted, and that’s when a whole rain of Ping-Pong balls fell from above onto Twilight.
Luna and Cadance could hardly believe their eyes, and Twilight was completely livid, as well as confused to how this was even possible… but it happened anyway.
Spike was rolling on the floor and laughing like a hyena.
Even Luna and Candance couldn’t help but chuckle softly, but then they and Twilight all got serious. “You better watch it, Spike.” said Cadance “Somebody could prank you back for this.”
Buddy sat with his friends in the lunchroom, and Sunset actually felt nervous to open her soda, and Fluttershy couldn’t seem to bring herself to take a bite of her sandwich fearing she’d find a worm inside.
“Come on, the girls wouldn’t stoop that low.” Rainbow pointed out, and she ate her lunch and drank from her soda without much worry.
“Besides, Cadance sent them home. You don’t have to worry.” added Buddy.
Sunset sipped her soda, without worry or being pranked. “I wonder where they got this notion to prank like this. It’s not like them.”
“What I’d like to know is,
How is Buddy a Prank avoiding wiz?” said Rhymey.
That was something all the others wanted to know, but admitted he couldn’t teach it to them. “It’s just one of those things; either you got it or you don’t. I can smell pranks form a mile away, and so they’re easy to avoid.”
Suddenly, their communications went off; it was Lightning calling them.
Not wishing to cause to arouse attention from the other students, and to hear Lightning better, the rangers left their table and went out into the hall where it wasn’t as noisy from all the chattering.
“What’s up, Lightning?” Sunset asked, and Lightning “Um… this may seem a little strange, but, I can’t get off my bike.”
Everyone raised an eyebrow. “You called us because you can’t get off your bike?” Rainbow asked. “There’s more…” said Lightning, and he explained how he was out getting himself takeout on his lunchbreak, but when he got back to his motorbike and sat on the seat, he found he couldn’t get back off again, “Now I can see more people stuck to benches, poles, and other things.”
Now the rangers were starting to think this was weird. “Either this is some big prank…” said Rainbow “Or… it could even be…!”
As Lightning continued to struggle on his bike seat while talking to the rangers, he suddenly heard people screaming, and he saw why as Prankstar landed in the streets cackling and laughing.
“That’s right, scream all you like. It’ll only bring the rangers out faster!”
“Red-Alert rangers, we got a monster, and believe me, this is no joke!”
The rangers gasped, and Twilight came running along, with ping-pong balls still flooding out of her pockets, confirming Lightning’s call. “I’m picking up signals of alien activity all over town, and it’s spreading. Everyone’s falling victim to these practical jokes, and believe me they are not your average run-of-the-mill.”
“How come you have ping-pong balls in your pocket?” asked Fluttershy.
Twilight looked unamused, and Sunset said “Never mind… let’s move!” and she and the rangers dashed down the hall and out the door, heading for the nearest jump-tube.
Lightning was still struggling, unable to get off his bike seat, but he was stuck real good, and he couldn’t try to morph in the middle of public where people would see him.
Krysta couldn’t even try to help him either; what could she possibly do? “Oh, I hope they get here soon.” She peeped softly as she sat on an eaves trough above the takeout place.
Suddenly, Lightning had an idea, and he waved to Krysta using their special sign language, because he couldn’t let people know she could speak, and he said to her. “Go… find… me… some… good… strong... sharp…scissors.”
Krysta flapped her wings and hopped about, responding, “Scissors? What… for?” and Lightning gestured back at her “Just… hurry!”
Given their history, Krysta trusted Lightning’s word and flew off to get him a pair of scissors.
That’s when the rangers, morphed, came onto the scene.
“Lightning…” Sunset called as she and the others huddled around him. “Are you okay?”
Rainbow and Buddy tried to pull him off his bike, but he was stuck good.
“Talk about sticky mess.” Rainbow muttered.
“Never mind me…” cried Lightning “Worry about him!”
Prankstar stood glaring at the rangers, “You sure took your sweet time getting here.” He taunted “Now we can have some real fun.”
The rangers growled and huddled together as they stared him down. “What? No sense of fun?” he teased “Well, here… have some.” That’s when the top of his head opened like a lid and the rangers were suddenly all sucked in by a magical vortex.
“No! Guys…!” Lightning shouted.
Many people witnessed the rangers vanishing and they were all super worried, even the crusaders, whom were walking by on their way through town on their way to one of the girls’ apartments.
They were pretty much among the few people who hadn’t been trapped by Prankstar’s setups.
“Did you see that?” cried Applebloom. “All of them just got sucked right up.” added Sweetie. “There’s no sign of the comet ranger anywhere.” cried Scootaloo. “What do you think’s happened to them?” asked DD.
The rangers found themselves trapped in a strange world of neon flashing colors and mist all all over the white ground.
“Oh, no, not another real game…?!
It’s all to repetitive and all the same!” groaned Rhymey.
“I don’t know. Something feels different about this one.” said Sunset “Not that it matters, we’ve got to find a way out.”
Suddenly, Fluttershy saw an “Exit” sign, pointing at a doorway, which she thought was the way out. “I think I found a way out of here.” She cried as she raced towards the door.
“Fluttershy, No!” shouted Buddy, and he rushed over and pushed her out of the way, just as the door wiggled abnormall and fell flat on the ground with a loud thud as if it weighed a ton.
Fluttershy was horrified “That could’ve been me under that door.” she whimpered.
“It was a prank!” grumbled Buddy.
The others felt concerned, and Buddy suddenly got that weird feeling again. “Guys, duck!” he shouted.
The others were confused, and so Buddy got out his whip and lassoed the others pulling them away as a barrage of pies flew in, splatting on the ground, and exploded like bombs!
“Okay, that was weird and freaky!” said Rainbow.
Then they heard the sound of Prankstar laughing at them, and he seemingly appeared before them. “Run all you like, rangers. There’s no escaping from my pranks.”
“Why you…!” shouted Rainbow, and she dashed at him. Buddy shouted to her, “Rainbow… Stop! It’s another trick!” but too late as Rainbow ran at the image of Prankstar only to crash right through a brick wall, making the others wince.
Rainbow’s head was spinning with stars and birds tweeting. She felt more humiliated than hurt.
Suddenly, many guns and cannons appeared, loaded and ready. “Look out!” screamed Sunset, but some of the guns merely just popped with corks on strings or signs that read “Bang”
The rangers all felt relieved, until more of the guns shot actual lasers at them, damaging the rangers and making them fall over.
Prankstar laughed hysterically, “You should’ve seen yourselves thinking you were fine, and I’m just getting warmed up.”
He planned to continue torturing them all with prank after prank. Some would be mere gags, others were real threats, which would make it hard to tell what was about to happen; even for Buddy.
He could tell most normal types of pranks, but this was anything BUT normal!
Prankstar began to sing in a song as the rangers met with more misfortune…
Walkin’ down the streets, on a clear day, goin’ your way
When all the sudden from out of the blue, it gets you
It seems so simple and so plain to your eyes,
But if you’re not careful it’ll get you by surprise!
A practical joke can be played on any folk
It can happen to anyone,
It may look like just for fun
But for you, Power Rangers, my pranks will make you done!
“Look out!” shouted Buddy as more pie bombs were flung at the team. “Take this!” Rainbow shouted as she blasted the pies with her cannon.
Many knives and blades came soaring at the rangers-- some real and some fake. Rhymey skilfully parried them all back with his sword and expert fencing.
But no matter how many pranks the rangers tried to duck and avoid, they never seemed to stop, and Prankstar was having the time of his life. “Prank you… Prank you very much.” He said in an Elvis like fashion.
He continued to sing…
You can't trust anyone that you meet
You can't walk to cautiously down any street
A practical joke can be played on any folk
It can happen to anyone,
It may look like just for fun
You can’t hide, you can’t run…
“Don’t you get it, everyone?!”
For you, Power Rangers, my pranks will make you done!
His evil laugh echoed throughout the zone as the rangers felt trapped within the looming shadows.
Outside in the real world, Applebloom decided, “I say we find a way to help them.”
“Yeah…” agreed Sweetie “We helped them once before, we can do it again.”
Scootaloo’s eyes lit up, “And I think I got just the idea!” She huddled the girls together to whisper her idea, which the girls all liked a lot. “It just might work.” said DD.
The girls all put their hands in the center and shouted out, “THE CUTIEMARK CRUSADERS TO THE RESCUE!!”
Prankstar laughed maliciously. “The fun never ends with this. The rangers are stuck in my prank zone, and I’m free to destroy their precious city!”
“Think again!” someone shouted, and Lightning, morphed, after somehow freeing himself from his bike seat, leapt in over the monster.
“He, where’d you come from?” snarled Prankstar.
“That’s nothing compared to where you’ll be going.” snapped Lightning “Now give me back my friends!”
Prankstar laughed, “Is that a threat or a joke?”
“You bet it’s a threat!”
“Now that’s a joke! Get him, Lingos!”
A swarm of Lingos appeared and charged at Lightning, forcing him to leapt in and make short work of them. He punched one, kicked another into two more. “Beat it, ya goons!” he thundered.
The last of the Lingos were knocked down, leaving Prankstar wide open.
Twilight had already done her calculations, and located the entry and exit way to the world which the rangers were trapped in. “Lightning…” she said to him, “You need to get to his head and pop the lid off. Only then will the rangers be freed.”
“Right, thanks Twilight. That should be easy.”
“Ha!” scoffed Prankstar “Easy like a slice of pie…!” that’s when tossed his pie bombs and Lightning.
“Whoa!” he cried as he barely dodged the explosions.
“Don’t like pie?” teased Prankstar “Well how about some of these…!” and out from his hand he launched springy snake like objects that were actually very solid and hit Lightning hard like hard punches.
“That’s it!” Lightning growled, and he charged forth, punching the snakes out of his way while swerving and dodging the rest, finally reaching the monster.
The two brawled fiercely, exchanging attacks and defenses back and forth. “Take this!” Lightning thundered, and kicked the monster hard sending him rolling along. “No, more… I’ll give you your friends back!” he whimpered and cried.
Lightning found that strange to believe.
“Psyche!” shouted Prankstar and he shot more pie bombs and him, hitting him hard and sent him sailing down the road. “Dirty trick…!”
Prankstar laughed and said, “You fell for the joke, now you’re going to fall into my world where you’ll join your friends in destruction!
Speaking of which, I wonder how they’re holding out.”
Lightning felt worried, and indeed… the rangers were not holding out too well. The pranks continued to pelt at them, many swarms after many swarms, and they were really starting to get tired.
“We… can’t… keep going… like this!” panted Sunset.
“I don’t care if I ever laugh or cry again… I just want to get out of here!” shouted Rainbow.
More pranks began to set themselves up, but which were real and which weren’t? Buddy was growing exhausted and could hardly tell for himself. “Look out!” he cried as the pranks bolted at the team.
As for Lightning, he stood, but wasn’t sure of what to do as the monster approached him.
“Now!” shouted Applebloom, and she and Sweetie pulled on one end of a clear thin line, while the others pulled on the other side, raising the tripwire and causing the monster to snag and fall over.
“Hey, what happened?” he growled.
Even Lightning was confused.
The monster angrily got up and brushed himself off. “That’s it! Now I’m mad!” he growled, and he changed forth, when suddenly... he tripped on another wire, causing a big bucket of sticky syrup to fall from above and soar him, followed a second bucket of feathers.
“Hey! What is this!” shouted the monster as she flailed around in the blindness and stickiness.
“I don’t believe this.” said Lightning, but then he spotted the girls. At opposite corners of the street. “Well I’ll be…!”
“HELP THE RANGERS!!” the girls shouted to him.
“Right!” snapped Lightning, and he dashed towards the monster while it was still subdued in the sticky mess he was in. “Huh?” he cried as he saw Lightning charging at him, and he leapt up high and kicked off the lid on his head…!
…Thus releasing the rangers from their imprisonment.
The crusaders cheered for joy and slapped high-fives.
“Guys…!” Lightning cried as he dashed over to his friends. “Hey! That wasn’t funny!” whined Prankstar.
The rangers felt ever so relieved to be out, and despite their weariness, they felt they had just enough power for a Star Slam.
“Bring the weapons together!” said Sunset. The others agreed, and formed the Star Slammer.
“Star-Slammer… Ready!”
“Hey, quit playing around!” shouted Prankstar.
“No one’s playing. This is serious.” said Sunset. “Star-Slammer… Ultra-Strike!”
The rangers all stood together and sunset slammed the monster hard. “Come on, guy’s… Joke’s over!” he shouted as his body flared up and he exploded.
The rangers cheered, and the crusaders leapt for joy, but this celebration was about to be short-lived.
Vulcan observed everything and chuckled wickedly. “The joke’s still on you, rangers.” He said, and he gazed over at Keto who nodded in response.
“FORTISSIMO!!”
The mugic was launched, cast it’s spell, and Prankstar became a giant. “Anyone in for a BIG laugh?!” he taunted.
The crusaders cowered and ducked within allies.
As for the rangers, they were outraged, but still fairly weak and tired from their trials in the Prank Zone.
“Our powers are running too low.” cried Fluttershy.
“We haven’t too much might,
We couldn’t pilot the megazord and fight.” added Rhymey
“You guys take it easy…” Lightning said, “I’ll handle this. GIGANTIFY!”
“Giant-Mode… Engage!”
He grew large!
“Ha! You rangers are full of jokes aren’t you.” teased Prankstar. “And you’re so full of jokes, it’s getting on my nerves!” growled Lightning.
The two giants began to brawl fiercely. Lightning punched, and Prankstar blocked it. Prankstar kicked, and Lightning rolled out of the way.
“Pie break!” shouted Prankstar and he fired more pies at Lightning which hit him hard with big explosions and knocked him down, much to everyone else’s horrors.
“I wish I could see the look behind that helmet of yours.” teased Prankstar, “But now it’s time for you to enter a world of a joke.”
The lid on his head began to open, “Not this time!” snapped Lightning and he charged up his gauntlets.
“Comet Gauntlets… Engage!”
Just as Prankstar’s vortex began to hurl at him to such him into the world in his head, Lightning fired his Comet Trail straight into it, causing the energy to go back and hit Prankstar in a big explosion, knocking him over. “Not funny!” he shouted.
“Time to Armor up!” said Lightning.
“Summon Armor!”
“Comet Striker… Ready!”
Once Lightning armored up, he immediately extended his blades. “Hey, come on… Joke’s over!” cried Prankstar.
“Super-Space-Strike!” Lightning shouted as she thrust hard slashing his blades into Prankstar. “THE JOKE’S ON ME!!” he shouted as he exploded and was imprisoned, and with his capture, everyone in the city affected by his pranks was set free.
“He did it!” cried Fluttershy.
The rangers all cheered, so did the crusaders and the rest of the people in the city, while Lightning stood tall and proud. “Monster Captured! Mission Complete!”
Back at the tower, Vulcan was fuming furiously. “I don’t believe this!!” He ranted and raved, kicking over tables and frightening his minions and the Lingos.
“Someone will pay dearly for this!” he growled and gawked at his minions. “Uh-oh!” whimpered Keto. “I think we should run!” cried Marla. “I’m way ahead of you all!” shouted Bronc as he ran off with his comrades following them.
Vulcan didn’t bother chasing after them. “Someday, Rangers… Someday, I’ll get you, and that is no joke!”
Meanwhile, Lightning waited with the other rangers, but he still hadn’t de-morphed yet, and for good reason.
He had used the scissors Krysta had brought him to cut up his pants so he could slip out of them to free himself from his bike seat. As clever as that was, the others couldn’t help but giggle softly to the fact that he was in his boxers underneath his suit. So it best he didn’t de-morph until he could get home to get a fresh set.
“Oh, please…” Lightning groaned, holding his hand to his helmet in embarrassment.
The others rangers were de-morphed, and the crusaders joined them on the side of the street. “So you found a better use for your pranks, huh?” asked Sunset.
The girls felt a little ashamed, “I think we’re pretty much done with pranks, unless we really gotta use them.” said Applebloom. The other girls agreed. They didn’t even mind about not being able to get back at Buddy.
“Good for you girls.” said Fluttershy “It’s never really a good thing to play mean tricks on people, especially not your friends.”
“Unless you have a good enough reason.” Buddy said as he came out of a bake-shop with four custard cream pies and a cheeky grin on his face, “Right… girls?”
“Uh-Oh!” the girls whimpered, and the other rangers held them. “Oh, yes…” said Rainbow. The others all snickered cheekily as Buddy moved in closer.
Suddenly, a truck very near honked its horn making him jump and throw the pies up high and all splatted down upon his own head.
The others gasped softly, and Buddy wiped the cream from his eyes and mouth. “Then again, maybe it’s an entirely different matter when you accidently prank your own self.”
The others laughed hysterically, and he laughed too.

You could use an editor/proofreader. I'm guessing all the dislikes are from haters, but it seems an okay fic.

They are from haters...
See this blog... https://www.fimfiction.net/blog/724125/only-my-satisfaction-matters
and I'm afraid I tried that once (A proofreader) bad idea...
8057090 I think these haters are relentless on you because of your profile description... Kind of ironic you're an anti-MLP yet you post on a site that is pro-MLP. Just saying though.
Also, finding proofreader with knowledge of MLP and Power Rangers might be hard. Still, I'm impressed you've written this much despite the number of dislikes. I would've given up at that point.
I agree with reading is magic. These haters are just hating because reasons. Another great chapter, man.
