DISCLAIMER: Ok, folks, here it is, the BIG one, chapter 9!

REALITY GEMS 9: THE FINAL THROWDOWN

The Animarium:

Wonder Woman 1 and Zack Taylor 1 walked through the Animarium, thinking about their current situations: The successful search for the Reality Gems-and as a result-their-attraction. “It seems that, in our case, the Gem was only pointing out what was already there. The question now is-what do we do about it?” Wonder Woman 1 asked.

“Well, I think-” Zack 1 started, when Kimberly Hart 1 and Tommy Oliver 1 walked over.

“Why ask questions like that? If you love each other, then there’s no question. Be with each other.” Kimberly 1 told them.

Tommy 1 agreed, saying “When it’s all said and done, you really have to follow your heart, because that’s the one thing you can ever really count on.”

That’s when it finally happened, as Trini Kwan 1 and the ThunderCats came over. Zack 1 and Wonder Woman 1 finally kissed each other. When they broke apart, Diana smiled and said “What do you say we continue this after our other thing is all over?”

Zack 1 smiled and said “Definitely.”

Billy Cranston 2 ran up and said “The 5th Doctor has come up with a plan, everyone to the main area!”

“Now, what about Gallifrey?” Wonder Woman 1 asked. “How is it faring since the Time Wars?”

“Not well. Now, however, the old girl has a chance, with all of the Reality Gems together.” The 5th Doctor, a young man in an Edwardian Cricketeer’s outfit, told them.

“What do the Reality Gems have to do with Gallifrey?” Jason 1 asked.

At that point, the 1st TARDIS opened up, and out came a Bohemian-dressed man with curly brown hair and a multicolored scarf, and a lovely brown-haired woman dressed like a cavewoman, who was called Leela. “Together, they, the Eye Of Harmony, and the Key to Time will be able to restore the planet.” The man, who turned out to be the 4th Doctor, spoke.

For once, Billy 1 was at a loss. “Time Wars?”

Isis 1 filled in for everyone, speaking about how the Master somehow had caused the Time Wars, the origin of the Reality Gems, and the Eye Of Harmony, and how they can restore life to any planet. “Once Gallifrey is restored, no one can ever touch the Gems or Gallifrey again.”

“Um, how many incarnations of the Doctor are there?” Both Keith Partridge and Al (Alicia) Lambert wanted to know.

The 3rd TARDIS opened up, and another Doctor, this one dressed rather elegantly, with salt & pepper hair, along with a woman with a perky haircut, exited. This was the 3rd Doctor, and his companion was Sarah Jane Smith. “There have been 11 incarnations of us, but the Master caught the original 6th persona, and tried to torture him and his companion, Peri Brown. Somehow, even with all 9 gems now reunited, both he and his companion no longer exist. For now, the former 7th Doctor is now the 6th, the 8th is now the 7th, the 9th is now the 8th, and so on. Basically, there is now three more regenerations we have to look forward to, and that has totally infuriated the Master.”

“So-what’s next?” Jill Munroe, the Red Power Angel, asked.

The 5th Doctor answered, “We go and restore Gallifrey. My predecessor, his companion, Leela, my companions Nyssa, Tegan, and Adric, and myself, will go with the 9 of you. Meanwhile, your villains are bound to have joined forces with the Master. They will most likely try to attack the Animarium. The 3rd Doctor has contacted our surviving personas, and they will arrive to help defend this island.”

“I’ve contacted Time Force, they’re getting in touch with the Legion even as we speak.” Jen added.

“I’ve called the Corps, they’re coming too.” Green Lantern 1 finished.

“Meanwhile, we’ll summon the Wild Force Rangers, they’ll get in touch with the other Ranger teams. We’ll also contact Xena and Hercules as well.” Martian Manhunter 1 finished.

“From both Universes,” added Martian Manhunter 2

“We should call on the Outsiders-and other heroes as well.” Batman 1 spoke.

“The Amazons can help us out here.” Both Wonder Woman 1 and Troia added.

“We’ll stand by you until the end,” said RJ, speaking up for the entire Jungle Fury team.

“And us, as well,” said Ryan, speaking for the VR Troopers.

As preparations were being made for the final battle, several of the Rangers and their families were conversing with each other to pass the time. Christopher and Tracy Partridge, Mark Foster, and Brendan Lambert were talking to one another. Chris said, “You know, Mark, Brendan, it will be a shame to see you all go. I’ve really enjoyed getting to know you guys.”

“Likewise,” said Mark with a smile. “Our moms seem to have become good friends as well.”

“Do you think we’ll ever see you guys again once this is all over?” asked Tracy.

“I don’t know,” answered Brendan. “I’d sure like to hope so, though.”

Karen Foster, Al, Jason Lee Scott 2, Keith and Laurie Partridge were talking elsewhere. Karen teased, “Naughty, naughty, Keith’s got a little crush on Eve.” Keith just blushed.

“So, when are you going to profess your undying love to her?” asked a grinning Al. Keith’s face got redder.

“Keith and Eve, sitting in a tree, K-I-S-S-I-N-G,” sang Laurie.

“Stop, please,” begged Keith. Although, truth be told, he wasn’t all that upset with the teasing.

Jason 2 said with a laugh, “Keith, they’re girls. What did you expect?” His arm around Al, he planted a quick kiss on her lips.

“Oh, by the way, dudes, since we’re a TV show on your world, who plays us?” asked Cody Lambert as he approached while holding Lilly Foster-Lambert.

“We know who played mommy and daddy, but what about the rest of us?” asked Lilly.

“Well, Lilly, you were played by Emily Mae Young,” answered Keith with a smile. “You, Cody, were portrayed by Sasha Mitchell. Christine Lakin played you, Al. Karen, you were played by Angela Watson, Mark was played by Christopher Castile, and Josh Byrne was Brendan. As for the rest of your family, J. T. was played by Brandon Call, Staci Keanan was Dana, and Jason Marsden played Rich. As for Sam, she was only a recurring character, but she was played by Alexandra Adi.”

Jill Munroe & Kelly Garrett were looking over at Jill’s sister, Kris, the Yellow Power Angel, and the Shadow ThunderCat, Dan Aydelott, and thought to themselves about their future. “You think you might have him as a brother-in-law someday?” the Black Power Angel asked, not in a teasing way.

“Actually, I wouldn’t mind. He’s definitely a step up from some of the guys we’ve both dated. Why not?” Jill mused.

Kris and Dan came over. “Brother-in-law? We’re just having fun right now, don’t try and marry us off just yet!” Kris sighed.

Dan, however, looked at Kris and said “Actually-”

Kris got this look on her face. “Uh-Oh!”

Tommy 2, Kat 2, Rocky 2, and Kimberly 2 were talking . Kat 2 said, “You know, guys, our Universes are so alike, yet so different. Here, Tommy’s still with you, Kimberly. In fact, they’re engaged. Do you think any of us have a chance of being like them someday?”

Tommy 2 put his arms around Kat 2’s waist, saying, “I’d sure like to hope so, Kat. But I know what you just said has a deeper meaning. I know that somewhere in the back of your mind, you wonder if I’m still in love with Kim. And I’ll be the first to admit, there will always be that part of me that belongs to her. But believe me, Kat, there is nothing I wouldn’t do for you. I love you, Kat. Don’t ever doubt that. I may have Kim on a pedestal, but I have you in my arms. And as far as I’m concerned, that what counts.”

“He’s right, Kat,” said Kimberly 2. “Don’t ever doubt the way Tommy feels about you. I don’t doubt the way Rocky feels about me.”

Kat 2 broke from Tommy 2’s embrace as Kim 2 did the same with Rocky 2. The two Pink Rangers then hugged. When they walked back to their boyfriends, Tommy 2 and Rocky 2 planted a kiss on their respective girlfriend’s lips. When Rocky 2 broke his kiss with Kimberly 2, he smiled and said, “That one was for love. This one is for luck.” He kissed Kimberly 2 again before she could process what he was talking about.

Zack 2 and Tanya 2 approached Jenny and Justin, who were sitting on a rock holding hands. “Something wrong, you two?” asked Tanya 2.

Jenny and Justin looked at each other before answering. Jenny said, “I guess we’re just nervous.”

“What about?” asked Zack 2 with a smile. “The battle, or your budding relationship?”

Both kids (actually, they were both 13, but were still looked at as kids by their friends) blushed before Justin finally answered. “I guess both. I mean, what if we lose? What if all of this has been for nothing?”

Samantha approached, saying, “Hey, don’t think like that. We’ve all got each other’s backs, remember? We wouldn’t be a team or a family if we didn’t.”

“She’s right, Justin,” said Jenny with a smile as she tightened her grip on Justin’s hand. “Don’t complain, never explain.”

Billy 2 and Trini 2 were walking as they held hands. They saw Trini 1 in the distance, watching Billy 1 from afar. As she and her boyfriend approached her doppelganger, Trini 2 asked, “Why the long face?”

Trini 1 looked at her counterpart, her hand intertwined with Billy 2’s. She sighed and answered, “I’m sorry. It’s just that whenever I see you two together, it makes me wish I had what you have. Do you know what I mean?”

Billy 2 nodded and said, “Yeah, I do. Believe me, I do. On my world, I never realized how much Trini meant to me until long after she left.” He then looked at his girlfriend with a smile and added, “I’m just glad I got a second chance.” This got a smile out of Trini 2.

Trini 2 looked at Trini 1 and asked, “Why don’t you just go and tell him how you feel?”

Trini 1 sighed. “It’s not that simple. What if it isn’t the same? I’m afraid to take the chance.”

“That’s why they’re called chances,” said Billy 2. “Because they can either turn out good or bad. If you really care about him, tell him so. Just look at your Zack and Wonder Woman.”

“He’s right,” said Trini 2. “The best things in life almost never come along twice. So, go for it. What have you got to lose?”

Trini 1 allowed her counterpart’s words to sink in before nodding. She turned and walked towards Billy 1, who was looking up towards the sky. After swallowing nervously, she spoke up. “Billy?”

Billy 1 turned to Trini 1 and smiled. “Hey, Trini, what’s up?”

Trini 1 took a deep breath, then spoke. “Look, Billy, I really have to tell you something. I… I… I love you. I’ve loved you for the longest time.” Billy 1 looked at her in a mixture of surprise and confusion. Trini 1 looked down and continued, “Look, if you don’t feel the same way, I understand. But I just had to…”

Billy 1 put a finger to her lips, shushing her. He then put his hand under her chin and raised it until their eyes met. Slowly, Billy 1 leaned in and kissed her. When they broke apart, Billy 1 had a smile on his face. “I… I’ve wanted to do that for a long time. I love you too, Trini. I just wish I had told you sooner.”

Trini 1 fought back her tears as she wrapped Billy 1 in a hug. Billy 2 and Trini 2 smiled as they watched. However, leave it to Rocky 1 to kill a mood. He walked up to see Billy 1 and Trini 1 still in their embrace. He smiled and said, “Wow, looks like we’ve got a new set of lovebirds.”

Without looking back, Billy 1 reached over his shoulder and fired a blast from his ring, a piece of ring-generated duct tape covering Rocky 1’s mouth. As Rocky 1 struggled to get it off, Billy 1 smiled at Trini 1 and asked, “Now, where were we?” Trini 1 smiled as Billy 1 kissed her again.

Trey approached Rocky 1 with a smile on his face as his Zeo teammate finally got the tape off of his mouth. He said, “A word of advice: Don’t ever interrupt a romantic moment. I did that once and well…let’s just say the consequences weren’t pleasant.” Rocky 1 looked at Trey in confusion as the Gold Ranger chuckled.

Jason 1, Jamie, David, and Kat 1 were talking elsewhere. They had seen everything that had transpired between Billy 1 and Trini 1. Jamie smiled and said, “I never thought I’d see those two get together.”

Jason 1 smiled as he responded, “I say it’s about time. It’s always been obvious that they belong together. Well, to me, anyway.”

Kat 1 smiled and said, “I know what you mean.” She smiled at David and said, “I just hope they feel the same way about each other as I feel about you.”

“Likewise,” said David with a smile. They then kissed. Jason 1 and Jamie did the same.

Steven Hyde and Jackie Burkhardt were talking alone about their future. “You what?” asked Hyde incredulously. “You can’t be serious!”

“I am serious,” responded Jackie. “In fact, I’ve never been more serious about anything in my life. I think we should stay on as ThunderCats.”

Hyde took off his glasses and rubbed his eyes. He put them back on and said, “I don’t know. I don’t trust some of these people. Besides, we don’t exactly fit in with all these super-powered types.”

“Neither do Eric and Donna, but they’re dealing with it,” Jackie pointed out. “Look, Steven, I love you, and whatever you decide to do, I support your decision. But I’m staying regardless.”

Hyde looked at his girlfriend. Never before had he seen her with her mind and heart so strongly set on something. Finally, he asked, “Why? Why do feel so strongly about this?”

Jackie took a deep breath before answering. “All my life, I’ve been called a spoiled rich brat. Vain. Shallow. Materialistic. I’ve never done a thing worth doing until now. Now, I have a chance to make a real difference. I don’t know about you, but I’m not going to pass it up.”

Hyde raised an eyebrow at this. Never before had he seen Jackie speak with such conviction. He sighed and said, “Alright. If this is what you want to do, I won’t try and stop you. As for me, I’ll help you, the other ThunderCats, and the rest this one last time. After that, we’ll see.” Jackie smiled and nodded in understanding before the two of them hugged.

Adam 1, Tanya 1, Adam 2, and Aisha were talking to each other. “Now that our Billy and Trini are finally together, it looks like Rocky, Trey, and the ThunderCats are the only single Rangers left,” said Tanya 1.

Taking Tanya 1’s hand in his, Adam 1 smiled and said, “Maybe someday, Rocky will find someone to help him settle down. As for the ThunderCats, they’ve still got time, especially Chris and Tracy.”

“And if all goes well, Keith won’t be single for long,” added Aisha with a smile.

“But who’d of ever thought?” asked Adam 2. “A rock star and a wrestler? I guess rock and wrestling are back in style.”

Keith had gotten away from Laurie, Karen, and Al. He was looking for Eve, trying to work up the courage to ask her out. He found her standing alone, watching the clouds roll by. He ran a hand through his hair and took a deep breath before walking towards her.

Eve smiled as she watched the clouds roll by. A voice pulled her out of her reverie. “Eve?” Keith asked.

Turning to the Red Lion ThunderCat, she said, “Hi, Keith. What is it?”

Eve saw the look on his face and almost smiled. She knew what that look was, and felt dreamy when he asked “Would you like to-um-.that is, when this is all over, would you like to-”

“Have dinner and a movie?” Eve finished. Keith gulped. Eve leaned in, kissed him on the lips and answered “Yes.” She then walked away.

The entire Animarium could hear Keith’s joyful whoop.

Bill Engvall was holding Shirley Partridge. Shirley looked at her boyfriend and asked, “Bill, when you and the kids go off, do you ever think that maybe you might not make it back this time?”

“Every time, Shirley,” admitted Bill. “Every time. But this time, the stakes are much higher. Nevertheless, we still have to fight. Not just for the world, but for all of reality as well. I wouldn’t trade the life I have for anything. My career as a comedian has taken me further than I ever dreamed it could. But it wasn’t until I met you and the kids that I felt my life was complete. Even if I hadn’t become a ThunderCat, I’m just so glad that I met you. I hope someday, you and I can become so much more. And there is no way in hell I’m giving it all up without a fight.” A tear escaped Shirley’s eye as she and Bill kissed.

Frank and Carol Lambert were talking elsewhere. With Frank holding her, Carol said, “Frank, talking with Shirley has given me a better understanding of what our kids do. But I still worry. What if one day, they really do go off and don’t make it back?”

“Of course you worry, Carol,” said Frank with a chuckle. “That’s your job. What kind of mother would you be if you didn’t? I worry too, but we have to let the kids lead their own lives. However, if anything ever does happen to our kids, I’ll still be proud of them. And do you know why? Because they’re standing up for what they feel is right.”

“When I think about what they’re fighting for this time, it makes me appreciate the fact that I have you in my life so much more,” said Carol as she turned to her husband.

Frank smiled and said, “I feel the same way, honey.” Carol returned the smile as they kissed.

Larry and Leslie Zedden were talking. Leslie asked, “Are you sure you want to do this? Are you sure you want to take part in this fight? I lost you once, I couldn’t bear to lose you again.” Larry was considering partaking in the final battle. After all, he was still a Zarakin and he still possessed the Sword of Fire.

“I understand, Leslie,” said Larry with a nod as he took her hands in his. “Believe me, I understand better than you could possibly know. But I just feel that I have to do this. This isn’t just about redeeming my past, it’s about securing my future. Your future, Jamie’s future, our future. Just the thought that there exists another version of my other self, completely devoid of even a sliver of good, sends shivers up my spine. But if I’m ever going to secure our future, if I’m ever going to conquer my fear, I must confront and defeat my past once and for all.” Crying, Leslie nodded in understanding before giving him a kiss.

Ten minutes later, a Time Force ship arrived on the beach, and the members of the Legion arrived on the Animarium through teleportation: Live Wire, Saturn Girl, Cosmic Boy, Triad, Apparition, Leviathan, Wildfire, Shadow Lass, Starman, Dream Girl, Mon-El, Spark, Dawnstar, Timber Wolf, and Ultra Boy. “We got your message, Jen. The others are all fighting other villains throughout the Earth, the ones trying to capture cities because they couldn’t find the gems. The GLC are on their way, Hal.” Live Wire told them.

Several invisible chariots arrived then, and the entire Amazon nation appeared. “Diana.” Queen Hippolyta spoke solemnly before embracing her daughter. Noticing Wonder Woman 2 close by, Hippolyta asked in confusion, “Diana?” Wonder Woman 2 couldn’t help but chuckle. The GLC also made their appearance, along with the Outsiders, and all the other Ranger teams.

“What do we do now?” Princess Shayla asked.

“We’ll keep the villains occupied while the 4th and 5th Doctors and their companions go to Gallifrey with the Power Angels to restore the planet. As long as they’re busy with us, Gallifrey has a chance.” The 3rd Doctor spoke up.

“Right. With the Key To Time, the Reality Gems, and the Eye Of Harmony, we should be able to do this. Let’s get started.” Isis 1 spoke up.

The Power Angels approached the TARDIS. Before stepping in, Eve Torres, the Diamond Power Angel, said, “What a day, huh? First, I’m wrestling in Sacramento, then I help save Crossworld City, then I find out a rock star has a crush on me, now I’m about to travel to another demension.”

“You two didn’t waste any time, did you?” asked Jill with a smile, referring to her and Keith.

Eve smiled back and responded, “Keith is cute, I love his music, and he is very sweet, but he hasn’t won me over just yet. I have some pretty high standards when it comes to men. Let’s see if he can live up to them.” Still smiling, Eve turned to Keith, who was nearby and had heard every word. Slowly, Keith smirked, the look on his face saying he welcomed the challenge.

“But what will we do when this is all over?” asked Tiffany Welles, the Green Power Angel.

“That will be your decision,” answered the 4th Doctor. “For now, however, we must concentrate on the task at hand.”

“I think,” Sabrina Duncan started, “that we should stay together, as a team.” The Blue Power Angel looked at her teammates.

“I can just see Bosley’s face now-he would pass out!” Jill giggled.

Kelly giggled as well, saying “I can hear him now- ‘Our health insurance costs are going to go through the roof!'”

Julie Rogers added “And what about our paying clients?” The Pink Power Angel laughed.

“Come on guys. Bosley would be just as worried about this-and about us.” Kris added sternly, then added “-not to mention Charlie.”

“Speaking of worried-my former B.A.U. teammates are going to freak when they find out.” Elle Greenway added. The Purple Power Angel looked worried.

“Let’s table this for when we get back. Let’s go, everyone.” Megan Wheeler finished. The White Power Angel then turned to Danny. “I know you’ve been through a lot. I hope I get to talk to you when we get back. Good luck, Danny.” Megan finished, speaking for the whole Angel team.

“Good luck, Angels,” said Danny Partridge, sincere for once. The Power Angels nodded before following the Doctors and their companions into the TARDIS. Soon, it was gone in a flash.

“Other Ranger teams are on the way…including from Mirinoi. We’re grateful for the help, because I have a feeling we’re really going to need it.” Isis 1 finished.

Elsewhere-

Luthor smiled and said “You want the Power Rangers, we want the Reality Gems. Do as we say, and we all will get what we want! Do we have a deal?”

A group of devilishly dressed fiends, highlighted in red, pink, black, yellow, white, purple, blue, and green, all stood ready to attack. “Hell, yeah! The Psycho Rangers are back, and ready to kill!” Psycho Red spoke for the team.

Zedd frowned. “You both actually trust these fools?”

Rita grinned. “Oh, ye of little faith. Between them and all the varying henchmen, the Animarium will be at our mercy!”

Zedd, however, knew better as he walked away. He had created his own versions of the Psycho Rangers back on his world and they had failed. But he wasn’t about to tell them that. He actually chuckled to himself as he thought, ‘Perhaps, if nothing else, it should be amusing to see the looks on these fools’ faces when the Psycho Rangers fail and have their butts handed to them. And if I’m lucky, I may still get the chance to kill Rita.’ Zedd then hit an inter-dimensional summoning device. Whispering into it, he then spoke, “Ultraman. You said you and your team owed me a favor. I’m cashing it in. And, once you get here-see if you can find those Royal Flush and Machine Empire losers.”

But the Animarium turned into Ranger Central, with 2 Morphin, 2 Zeo, Lightstar (Space), Lost Galaxy, Lightspeed Rescue, Time Force, Wild Force, Dino Thunder, SPD, Mystic Force, Operation Overdrive, and Jungle Fury, not to mention 2 Justice Leagues, 2 Titans, the Outsiders, the Legion Of Super Heroes, the Green Lantern Corps, the entire Amazon nation of Themyscira, and eight versions of the Doctor, and his varying companions.

Some of the GLC were patrolling from the air along with Superman 2, looking out for whoever they would be up against. The knew they would be facing Luthor, Rita, Zedd, and most likely the Master, but who else? That was the question. Everyone on the Animarium knew that their enemies had resources and weren’t afraid to use them. As Superman 2 was looking ahead with his telescopic vision, Arisia asked, “Anything yet, Superman?”

“Not yet,” answered Superman 2. “Wait.” He finally noticed someone approaching. He frowned and said, “They’re coming.”

Kilowog called into his ring, “Hal? We have a situation.”

Hal Jordan 1 got Kilowog’s message through his ring, via a hologram of his old friend and former trainer. “Go ahead, Kilowog.”

“We got a whole army of poozers headed right down our throats!” responded Kilowog.

“It’s starting,” said Hal Jordan 2 with a frown. Turning to Princess Shayla, he said, “We have to get everyone who shouldn’t be fighting out of here.”

“Consider it done,” said the princess with a nod. She turned to Shirley and Danny Partridge, Leslie Zedden, Frank and Carol Lambert, and Lilly Foster-Lambert. “We’re sending you back to the Command Centers on your home worlds. You’ll most likely be safest there.”

“ALPHA, PRINCESS SHAYLA, AND I WILL REMAIN WITH YOU UNTIL THE FIGHT IS OVER,” said Zordon 1.

“LIKEWISE FOR ALPHA AND MYSELF ON OUR WORLD,” said Zordon 2. In moments, everyone who had to leave were teleported away.

Now secure in the knowledge that no civilians would be caught in the crossfire, Superman 1 said, “It’s time, Rangers.”

Jason 1 and Tommy 2: “It’s Morphin Time!”

“TIGERZORD!”

“STEGOSAURUS!”

“MASTODON!”

“PTERODACTYL!”

“TRICERATOPS!”

“SABER-TOOTHED TIGER!”

“PTERODACTYL!”

“TRICERATOPS!”

“TYRANNOSAURUS!”

“MASTODON!”

“SABER-TOOTHED TIGER!”

“GREEN DRAGON!”

“PYRAMIDAS!”

“WHITE TIGER!” These were the Mighty Morphin Power Rangers 2.

Adam 1: “Go Zeo!”

“ZEO RANGER I, PINK!”

“ZEO RANGER II, YELLOW!”

“ZEO RANGER III, BLUE!”

“ZEO RANGER IV, BLACK!”

“ZEO RANGER V, RED!”

“ZEO RANGER VI, PURPLE!”

“GOLD RANGER POWER!” The Zeo Rangers 1 were ready for action.

Jason 2: “It’s Morphin Time!”

“ZEO RANGER I, PINK!”

“ZEO RANGER II, YELLOW!”

“ZEO RANGER III, BLUE!”

“ZEO RANGER IV, GREEN!”

“ZEO RANGER V, RED!” The Zeo Rangers 2 stood at the ready.

Keith: “ThunderCats, Time to Rock!”

“JAGUAR!”

“LYNX!”

“LEOPARD!”

“CHEETAH!”

“TIGER!”

“COUGAR!”

“LION!”

Dan: “FROM THE SHADOWS, COMES FORTH THE LIGHT!” The ThunderCats were ready to fight.

Al: “Geo Rangers, Unite!”

“POWER OF WIND!”

“POWER OF EARTH!”

“POWER OF WATER!”

“POWER OF THUNDER!”

“POWER OF FIRE!” As the Geo Rangers stood together, Al said, “Alright, let’s kick their tails.”

Andros: “Let’s Rocket!” In moments, the Lightstar Rangers had morphed.

Next up were the Lost Galaxy Rangers: Leo Corbett, Kai Chen, Damon Henderson, Kendrix Morgan, and Maya. Leo’s brother Mike was there too. Leo, Kai, Damon, Kendrix, and Maya cried out in unison, “Go, Galactic!”

Once the Galaxy Rangers morphed, Mike commanded, “Magna Power!” In seconds, he was transformed into the Magna Defender.

The Lightspeed Rescue Rangers called out, “Lightspeed Rescue!”

“TITANIUM POWER!”

Next were the Time Force Rangers. “Time for Time Force!”

“QUANTUM POWER!”

It was the Wild Force Rangers’ turn. “WILD ACCESS!”

Then, the Dino Thunder Rangers. “DINO THUNDER, POWER UP!”

“WHITE RANGER, DINO POWER!”

SPD had come from the future to help. They cried out, “SPD, EMERGENCY!”

The Mystic Force Rangers ordered, “MAGICAL SOURCE, MYSTIC FORCE!”

The time had come for Operation Overdrive to morph. “OVERDRIVE, ACCELERATE!”

And finally, it was down to the Jungle Fury Rangers. “JUNGLE BEAST, SPIRIT UNLEASH!”

Though they weren’t Rangers, the VR Troopers were prepared as well. Ryan commanded, “TROOPER TRANSFORM!”

“WE ARE VR!”

Gallifrey:

The TARDIS hovered over the planet, as the 4th Doctor had informed the Angels of what had to be done. Leela, the 4th Doctor’s companion, had gotten the airlock ready, and Nyssa, Tegan, and Adric had retrieved the Key to Time. The Eye Of Harmony was already on the planet’s surface, waiting to receive the other items.

In a specific chamber, the 5th Doctor instructed the Angels on what to do. Jill was 1st , shouting “By the fires of creation, I, the Red Power Angel, return to Gallifrey what is hers!” Calling forth the Red Reality Gem, she let it fly before her.

Kelly was 2nd, shouting “From the darkness, comes the necessary balance. I, the Black Power Angel, restore to Gallifrey this gift!” With that, the Black Reality Gem joined the red gem.

Sabrina then added “By the waters of life, I, the Blue Power Angel, give back to Gallifrey this needed gift!” The Blue Reality Gem joined the other 2.

Julie then shouted “With the power of the wind, I, the Pink Power Angel, give back to Gallifrey what was hers: the power of the air and winds!” The Pink Reality Gem soon was with the others.

Kris spoke then “In the name of life, I, the Yellow Power Angel, give back to Gallifrey the power of energy!” And the Yellow Reality Gem was encircled with the others, surrounding the Key To Time.

Elle then shouted “With sound, the planet Gallifrey was once destroyed, and with sound, I, the Purple Power Angel, help give life and sound back!” The Purple Reality Gem was soon encircled with the others.

Megan then spoke up; “In the name of the light, I, the White Power Angel, restore light to Gallifrey!” The White Reality Gem joined the circle.

Tiffany then shouted “Let nature heal the planet Gallifrey with this gift from I, the Green Power Angel!” and with that, the Green Reality Gem joined the others.

Eve finished with, “For life, for love, for humanity and nature, let this restore Gallifrey to the living! I, the Diamond Power Angel, give this!” The Diamond Reality Gem completed the circle around the Key to Time. The items were teleported to the airlock, where they hit the planet’s surface. Within minutes, the planet was changing from a battle-scarred disaster, to the lush, green, life-giving planet it was before.

The 5th Doctor, along with Nyssa, Tegan, and Adric smiled. Soon, the Time Lords would somehow return, but for now, life consisted of animals, plants, and water and air on life giving soil. “Well done, Angels.”

The 4th Doctor agreed. “Gallifrey is restored, thanks to you.”

“We’re glad to help, but for now, I think we’d better return to Earth. I have a feeling we’re going to be needed.” Sabrina spoke for her team.

“If you don’t mind, I would like to help.” Leela asked.

Luthor robots and Brainiac robots began swarming the Animarium from the sky. “Talk about air pollution,” said GLC member Salaak. The Green Lantern Corps, Superman 2, and some of the Legion began to engage the robots.

On the surface of the Animarium, Putties, Tengas, Cogs, and Skugs appeared and began attacking, only to be met with great opposition. “Show no mercy!” cried Martian Manhunter 2. “For they have none!”

The Ninja Storm team teleported in, Shane saying, “You got that right, Martian freak.”

Surprised to see them again, Lilly asked, “Didn’t we just get done handing your butts to you?”

“That you did,” said Tori. “And now, we’re back for revenge!”

“Actually-” Eames snarled “-you losers just came back for another ass-kicking!”

“I said it always seemed that the Ninja Storm team were gluttons for punishment!” Goren finished.

“Revenge, revenge,” said Theo. “It’s always about revenge.”

The Crime Syndicate then was teleported in, UltraMan saying, “There’s more where that came from.”

The Royal Flush gang was then teleported in, Ace saying, “Plenty more.”

“Alright, dudes, let’s see what you’ve got,” challenged Cody. The Jungle Fury Rangers, except RJ, took on the Ninja Storm team again, while the Geo Rangers challenged the Royal Flush gang

Psycho Red appeared before Jason 1, Rocky 2, and Keith. “I am going to enjoy destroying you three. Evil is so much cooler, and you are-”

A blast knocked Psycho Red on his butt. He then got to his feet, only to see Andros, the Red Lightstar Ranger, glaring at him behind his helmet. “Hey, Psycho Red-Remember ME?”

Cole, the Red Lion Wild Force Ranger, and Conner, the Red Dino Thunder Ranger, had joined the others. “Ready for us to kick your ass into the next three millenniums?” Conner snapped.

“BRING IT ON, LOSERS!” Psycho Red shouted, when a burst of flames hit him in the chest.

Jill and the other Angels had returned. “You didn’t think you were going to fight without us, did you?” the Red Power Angel joked. And soon, the Power of Red was at full force.

“You wanted us to bring it on, Psycho Red?” asked Jason 1. “Well, be careful what you wish for. Because you just might get it!”

And it was on.

Jason 1 and Rocky 2 attacked Psycho Red with their Power Swords. Psycho Red parried with his own sword. However, this allowed Keith to stick his ThunderSword underneath Psycho Red’s and force it out of his hands. With Psycho Red disarmed, Jason 1, Rocky 2, and Keith simultaneously struck him in the chest. Rocky 2 then said, “Your turn, guys!”

“Show no mercy!” added Keith.

“Fine by us,” said Andros. He then struck Psycho Red with his Spiral Saber.

Cole struck with his Lion Claw, saying, “You guys screwed with the wrong bunch!”

“And this is the price you pay!” finished Conner as he struck with his Tyranno Staff.

“Burn in Hell!” cried Jill as she shot a blast of fire, sending the now-badly damaged Psycho Red flying. With Psycho Red down for the count, Jill blew her fingertip as if it were a smoking gun, smiling as she said, “When you’re hot, you’re hot!”

“In more ways than one,” said Conner dreamily as he looked the Red Power Angel up and down.

Wonder Woman 1 looked toward Zack 1 and was immediately worried. Wonder Woman 2 told her, “You know he can handle himself in a fight. He will be fine.”

Diana 1 was still concerned. Hippolyta saw this and came over to talk with her daughter. It was the kind of mother/daughter talk that she needed. “Diana. I know you are frightened for Zachary, but if he is going to survive this battle, he needs to know that you are fighting at your best, for him, for yourself, and for the Earth! Now, do not let him, or yourself down! You must concentrate on the battle at hand!”

Wonder Woman 1 snapped out of her fear, and went to work on some unfortunate Putties who were under the Cheetah’s command. She did take one, and sent him flying towards Psycho Black, and smashed the putty into him, which gave Zack 1, Adam 2, Chris, Carlos, Eric, Kelly, and Danny the advantage. Both Wonder Women flew straight towards Superwoman, and began beating the hell out of her.

As Superwoman grabbed WW2, she shouted to WW1, “Actually, I’m going to kill you, right after I kill your Black Ranger boyfriend!” Superwoman grinned.

That did it. Wonder Woman 1 hit her in the stomach, then slapped her five times. The Avenging Amazon then threw her into a tree, slammed into her, then gave her a piledriver before she even knew what hit her. Superwoman reached for her lasso, only to have both Wonder Women smile and ask “Looking for this?” WW1 then tossed the lariat Zack 1’s way, just as WW2 knocked her out.

Psycho Black was taking a major pounding. Kelly got things started by trapping him in a field of darkness. “Alright, lights are out,” said the Black Power Angel. “Let him have it!”

Zack 1 smiled and said, “Thought you’d never ask.” He, Adam 2, and Chris then ran in and struck him with their axes, causing significant damage to his chest.

After being struck, Psycho Black was knocked out of the field, landing on his rear end. He quickly got up, saying, “It’s going to take a lot more than this to stop me!”

“That’s where we come in,” said Eric Forman, the Black Dino Thunder Ranger. He then proceeded to impale Psycho Black with his Bracchio Staff.

“Save some for me!” said Carlos Vallerte, the Black Lightstar Ranger. He then struck Psycho Black with each end of his Lunar Lance.

“Hey, I want in on this too!” said Danny Delgado, the Black Iron Bison Wild Force Ranger. He then struck with his Bison Axe, sending Psycho Black flying.

“Oh, yeah!” shouted Chris in triumph. “We’re b-b-b-b-bad to the bone!”

“Nice one, Chris!” said Zack as he slapped his protégé high-five.

Adam 2, however, had been quiet the whole time. Noticing this, Kelly asked, “No catty remarks from you?”

Adam 2 shrugged and said, “Sorry, I prefer to let my actions do the talking.”

Power Ring dueled with both Hals. Power Ring created an axe and swung it, only to have Hal 1 block it with a shield. Hal 2 fired a blast at Power Ring, but Power Ring was able to dodge. Power Ring then created a sledge hammer and threw it, only for Hal 2 to counter with a sledge hammer of his own. The impact caused both hammers to shatter. “Give it up!” cried Power Ring, trying to sound intimidating. “I’m far more powerful than the two of you!”

“Yeah, and I’m John Lennon. It’s not about how powerful your ring is, turkey,” said Hal 1.

“What counts is the strength of your will,” added Hal 2. Both GLs then fired a blast from their rings, countered by a blast from Power Ring’s ring. Bad move on Power Ring’s part, as the combined will of both Hals overpowered his, shattering his ring.

Shocked by the destruction of his ring, Power Ring cried out, “Impossible!”

“No. Possible,” said Hal 1. He and Hal 2 then fired one more blast from each of their rings, knocking Power Ring out with ring-generated fists.

Jenny and Tiffany stared down Psycho Green. “Ugh!” cried Jenny in disgust. “This is the second time I’ve faced a green Psycho Ranger, and both times it was a guy instead of a girl. Don’t I get any respect?”

“You’d best worry about the pain I’m about to inflict upon you,” said Psycho Green. “The two of you alone are no match for me.”

A green pendulum swung from out of nowhere, slamming into Psycho Green’s chest and knocking him down. Tiffany smirked and asked, “You were saying?”

Green Lantern Kyle Rayner landed and smiled saying, “Oh, yeah, let’s get this party started!”

“Yes, let’s,” said Jenny as she smiled underneath her helmet. She then leapt toward Psycho Green, Dragon Dagger in hand. She landed multiple strikes to his chest.

Tiffany then proceeded to wrap him tightly in some vines and pull him down to the ground so that he was laying on his back. Knowing that it wouldn’t hold him for long, Tiffany cried, “Do it now, Green Lantern!”

“You don’t have to tell me twice,” said Kyle. He then created a jackhammer, which pounded into Psycho Green’s chest, putting him down for the count.

“BEAUTIFUL! A DaVinci in metal!” sang Tiffany, kissing her fingertips. “MWAH!”

Kyle smiled. “I’m not sure how Leonardo DaVinci would appreciate that remark, though.”

The Galaxy Rangers were tearing apart the Putties, Tengas, Cogs, and Skugs with ease. As he fought with his Quasar Saber, Leo said, “If this is the best Earth’s villains have to offer, they’re in deep trouble.”

Mike tore through more with his Magna Blade. When more tried to charge him, he converted it into blaster mode and fired, taking them down. “I’m not complaining, little bro. Sometimes, it’s good to have a little fun while you fight.”

“Aren’t you forgetting something here?” asked Kai as he battled. “Not only is the fate of Earth at stake, the fate of all reality is up for grabs too!”

“Oh, Kai, why do you have to be so serious all the time?” asked Kendrix. “Have a little fun for a change!”

“I know I am,” said Damon.

“Besides, it’s good to be back in action!” finished Maya.

The Lightspeed Rangers fought Syonide. He tried to attack with his hatchets, but Dana and Kelsey easily disarmed him with simultaneous kicks. Syonide cursed, “You think that’s going to stop me?”

“No,” answered Dana. “But you probably will need a medic when this is all over.”

“If I were you, I wouldn’t turn around,” said Kelsey. “You won’t like the view.”

Despite Kelsey’s advice, Syonide turned around anyway . . . only to be struck in the jaw by Carter. “She warned you.”

“And now, you’re going to pay,” said Chad as he landed a flying kick.

As Ryan slugged Syonide in the jaw, he said, “Stay down!”

“And don’t get back up!” finished Joel with one more punch.

Psycho Blue battled both Billys, Bill, Sabrina, T. J., Max, and Ethan… and was losing badly. Even so, he yelled, “You Rangers can’t stop me! Nothing can stop the Psycho Rangers!”

“Watch us,” said Sabrina with a frown. She then caused a geyser to erupt from the ground, knocking Psycho Blue on his rear.

“Take this!” cried both Billys in unison as they leapt and struck with their Power Lances.

Even as he clutched his chest, Psycho Blue asked, “You really think that’s going to stop me?”

“What do you think we are, stupid?” asked Bill. He then struck with his own lance, saying, “We’re just getting started.”

“And now, we’re going to finish you,” added T. J. before striking with his Astro Axe.

“Hey, don’t let me miss out on the fun!” cried Max Cooper. The Blue Surging Shark Wild Force Ranger then struck with his Blue Shark Fighting Fins.

“And last but not least,” said Ethan James. The Blue Dino Thunder Ranger struck Psycho Blue with his Tricera Shield before blasting him at point-blank range. This blew a hole in the Psycho’s chest.

Psycho Blue choked out, “Curse you,… Rangers.”

“No,” said Billy 1. “Curse you.” He then created an anvil with his Power Ring, crushing Psycho Blue into oblivion.

“Good riddance,” said Billy 2.

As the Amazons engaged the enemy foot-soldiers, Artemis cried out, “Stay on the attack! Don’t let up for a second! Even if they overwhelm you, fight on!”

Moments later, several portals were opened up. From them emerged Xena, Gabrielle, Hercules, and Iolaus . . . from both Universes. Mega Man X, Zero, and Axl also emerged. Axl smirked and asked, “So, are we late for the party?” He then began firing his Axl Bullets at the enemies in the immediate area.

“Don’t worry,” said Gabrielle 1 with a smile.

“There’s plenty for us,” added Gabrielle 2 as she and her counterpart began to fight.

Chris Partridge’s jaw dropped upon seeing X, Zero, and Axl. “MEGA MAN X?” he asked in disbelief. “But I thought he was just a video game character?”

“When will all of this violence cease?” asked Mega Man X as he fired his X-Buster.

“Oh, come on, X, quit complaining and do your job,” said Zero as he slashed through several enemies with his Z-Saber.

“Another day,…” said Iolaus 1.

“…another battle,” finished Iolaus 2 as he and his doppleganger battled as well.

They turned to each other and said at the same time, “That’s what I was going to say!”

Hercules 1: “Let’s give some of our friends. . .”

Hercules 2: “…a helping hand!” They then ran to help Superman 1, Superboy, and Supergirl battle UltraMan. Meanwhile, both Xenas went to assist their respective descendants.

Psycho Pink tried to nail Cassie Chan, the Pink Lightstar Ranger, but Donna Pinciotti was ready. The Pink Dino Thunder Ranger fired 4 shots from her Sabertooth Power Bow, just as Alyssa Enrille, the White Noble Tiger Wild Force Ranger, knocked Psycho Pink on her knees with her White Tiger Baton, causing severe damage. “Try to go dancing with THAT!” Alyssa snapped.

“Thank you, but-shall we?” Cassie turned to Kat 2. Kat 2 simply nodded.

Xena 2 had just arrived, shouting “Ready to show this fake the true power of Pink, ladies?”

“You bet!” Kat 2 shouted, causing her ancestor to smile with pride. She and Xena 2 then threw their chakrams, causing severe damage to Psycho Pink’s armor.

When their chakrams were returned, Xena 2 turned to her descendant and said, “Let me have a piece of her.”

Kat 2 smiled under her helmet and nodded, saying, “She’s all yours.”

Xena 2 smiled and charged forward, striking Psycho Pink multiple times with her sword. Seeing the Warrior Princess fight, Donna’s jaw dropped as she watched in admiration. “Wow! She’s amazing!”

Xena 2 then cried, “Finish her off!”

“Your wish is our command,” said Cassie. Kat 2 fired her Power Bow, just as Cassie aimed her Satellite Stunner, knocking Psycho Pink back several feet. Before the Psycho could regain her bearings, however, she soon found herself facing-

First , an angry Kimberly Hart 1, the Pink Pterodactyl Ranger, an equally pissed off Laurie Partridge, the Pink Cheetah ThunderCat, and Julie Rogers, the Pink Garnet Power Angel. Julie aimed a burst of wind, sending the Psycho sky high. Laurie and Kimberly 1 then took aim with their Power Bows and fired, nailing Psycho Pink, causing the android to explode.

“Hey, check it out.” Laurie grinned.

“AWWW, poor little Psycho Pink!” Kimberly 1 spoke, doing a dead on impersonation of Tweety from the Warner Brothers Cartoons. Laurie joined her as they both giggled “-she fall down, go-BOOM!“

Even though she smiled, Julie shook her head, and sighed “You 2 have been watching WAY too many Sylvester and Tweety cartoons!”

Owlman went after both Batmen. While fighting Batman 2, he shouted “You really should have put Superman after me. I am so going to enjoy destroying you. You never let anyone help you out, and I am gonna show you that that is a-” He never got to finish.

Batman 1 and Nightwing double teamed Owlman, punching him and slamming him into everything around. Nightwing snickered “You’re Earth 3’s version of Batman? God, what a loser!”

Falling for Nightwing’s taunt, Owlman charged the hero, only to get the daylights beaten out of him by Batman 1 and 2. As Owlman fell, an asp crawled near him, prompting Nightwing to say, “It can be said that Owlman landed on his-”

Both Batmen shouted “NIGHTWING, DON’T YOU DARE SAY THAT!”

Hearing this, the Outsiders version of Owlman shouted “He named himself after me? I’m going to be sick!”

Speaking of the Outsiders, they were busy with the villainous foot-soldiers. Owlman battled with his fists and various weapons while Katana played slice-and-dice with her katana blade. “This is almost too easy,” she said.

Black Lightning destroyed more with his lightning bolts, saying, “Don’t ever say that, Katana. They always come back for more.”

As Geo-Force bashed more away, he said, “I say, let them come. Just more for me to trash!” He then caused the ground of the Animarium rise, sending several enemies rise. He also generated some lava bursts, frying more to a crisp. Finally, he used his gravity manipulation powers to cause several Skugs to touch, causing them to disappear.

Several Putties and Tengas surrounded Halo. The moved in on her, only to be repelled by an orange aura. She smirked and said, “Dumber than I thought.” Her red aura then produced heat beams, which she used to melt down some unfortunate Cogs.

Looker summoned the animals of the Animarium to come to her aid. While they were doing whatever damage they could to the villains, she also used her telekinesis to hurl stones at more of them. She said, “For a bunch of brainless creatures, they sure are persistent.”

“Their loss,” said Grace with a shrug as she bashed her foes left and right.

Metamorpho used his powers in various ways to take out more of the enemy foot-soldiers. He changed into a tidal wave, wiping several out. He reverted back to his humanoid form, saying, “They never learn,” before continuing to fight.

“For Atlantis!” cried Tempest as he fired his force blasts.

The Daleks tried to destroy the Wild Zords, but were trashed by them instead. Something about the atmosphere on the Animarium proved fatal to the metallic death machines. Leviathan decided to help, growing to his normal giant size and beating them into submission. He said, “These things are pathetic.”

The 3rd Doctor looked almost disappointed. “I almost hate to say this-but I was looking forward to another go-round with them.”

The 2nd Doctor looked at him and snapped “Going against the Master isn’t enough for you, fancy-pants!”

“ENOUGH!” the new 8th Doctor shouted, and went to help Rose with the Putties she was fighting.

Live Wire flew around destroying robots with his electical powers, shorting them out and causing them to explode. He said, “This is ridiculous. We destroy one, ten more take its place!”

“It’s their loss,” said Cosmic Boy as he used his magnetic powers to put the robots out of commission.

“Besides, that’s more for me to melt down,” said Wildfire as he used his powers to do just that.

Mon-El added, “We must keep fighting! Everything is at stake! And I do mean everything!”

Firestorm rearranged the molecules of as many robots as he could, rendering them defenseless. “Now, Ultra Boy!”

“One great big trashing, coming right up,” said Ultra Boy as he tore the robots apart.

Dawnstar flew around, tricking several robots into destroying each other. “I’m doing my part,” she said.

“And we’ll do ours,” said Hawkman as he and Hawkwoman tore into the robots with their maces.

“We will not be denied!” cried Hawkwoman.

Superman 2 flew through the air, tearing into both Brainiac and Luthor robots. He tore them to pieces in quick succession, but more kept coming. He said, “The real Brainiac must be around here somewhere. If we take him out, that will hopefully put his robots out of commission as well.”

Starfire fired her Starbolts, saying, “Go! We’ll cover you!”

Kris, Aisha 2, and Ashley went to work against Psycho Yellow, Aisha 2 aiming her daggers and Ashley her Star Slinger. Although they hit her dead center in the chest, Psycho Yellow got up and shouted “What’s this supposed to do, give me a stomach-ache?”

“No, Psycho Bitch, it softens you up for this!” Kira Ford shouted. The Yellow Dino Thunder Ranger was ready with her Ptera Grips, carving her up, while Taylor Earhardt, the Yellow Soaring Eagle Wild Force Ranger, sliced her arm with her Eagle Sword. This left her a prime target for Xena 1, Trini 1 and Tracy. Xena 1 was up 1st , throwing her chakram straight for Psycho Yellow’s neck, slicing it, and damaging some vital wiring. The Warrior Princess then kicked the Psycho into some trees, then played slice and dice using her sword.

“Ouch,” said Aisha 2. “That had to hurt.”

“Right now, I bet she wishes she’d never been assembled,” said Ashley.

“Beautiful.” Trini 1 said with pride, Tracy looking on.

Kris went into action, using her electricity to short-circuit the Psycho’s motor functions. Thus, Trini 1 and Tracy both simply carved Psycho Yellow up with their daggers, then blasted what was left with their blasters. “To quote Kim-Gotta love it!” Trini 1 smiled.

“Amen!” Tracy and Kris both added, Taylor and Kira smiling.

Kilowog fired a blast from his ring. Unlike other Green Lanterns, when he used his ring, it sounded like a cannon firing. As several robots were destroyed, he said, “Leave these poozers to us!” The other members of the GLC continued to battle, along with several of the Legion.

Superman 2 flew through several robots, determined to find the real Brainiac. Soon, he came across Brainiac’s starship. After breaking in, he confronted the android, sitting casually in a chair on the bridge. “Greetings, Kal-El. I must say, I am not terribly surprised to see you. However, the longer you and your friends battle my forces, the weaker they will become.”

“Which is why I hope to aid my friends’ cause by putting you out of commission,” responded Superman 2.

“Not this time,” said Brainiac as he stood up and fired at the Man of Steel. It was a Kryptonite beam that hit Superman 2 square in the chest . . . only it seemed to have no effect! In a rare occurance, Brainiac was genuinely shocked! “Impossible! This does not compute! Unless…”

“I come from an alternate Universe, Brainiac,” said Superman 2 with a smirk. “Your Universe’s Kryptonite has no effect on me.” He then flew forward and easily tore Brainiac apart. Once that was done, he destroyed Brainiac’s computers, hoping it would deactivate his robots.

Back outside, the heroes who were defending the Animarium from the air noticed Brainiac’s robots shutting down. They then fell and burned up in the atmosphere. “He did it!” cried Arisia. “The Brainiac robots have stopped!”

Getting the message back on the surface, Hal 1 said to Superman 2 over his com-link, “It worked, Superman. Brainiac’s robots are out of commission. Once Luthor’s are finished, we should be in the clear.”

“How’s my counterpart doing?” asked Superman 2 as he flew back towards the Animarium.

Looking over at Superman 1, Hal 1 smirked and said, “Offhand, I’d say he’s having a field day.”

Indeed. Superman 1 landed two hard punches to UltraMan’s jaw. UltraMan responded with two of his own. Trying to bail him out, Supergirl cried out, “Hang in there, cousin!” She flew forward and landed her fists into UltraMan’s midsection, sending him back.

However, UltraMan grabbed Supergirl by the throat and began choking her, saying, “It is not a girl’s place to do the work of a man!”

“Says… you. However, you’re not a man. Guess what you are . . . PIG!” said Supergirl defiantly. She the fired her heat vision, hitting UltraMan in the face, temporarily blinding him, then kicked him . . . down there, causing him intense pain.

This allowed Superboy to fly towards UltraMan, saying, “Let me at him!” Supergirl got out of the way, allowing Superboy to land two hard punches to UltraMan’s jaw, taking him down. He then used his tactile telekinesis to make the ground beneath him explode, sending him flying.

UltraMan, however, quickly got to his feet, snarling, “You think that’s going to stop me, boy?”

“Not really,” said a voice behind UltraMan. He turned to see Hercules 1 standing there. “But this might.” Hercules 1 then slugged UltraMan in the jaw.

This caused UltraMan to turn and see Hercules 2, who simply said, “And this.” Another right caused UltraMan to stumble.

“And this!” cried both Hercules’ at the same time. They then punched UltraMan simultaneously, sending him flying towards Superman 1.

“And last but not least. . .” said Superman 1 as he threw one more punch. This one finally knocked UltraMan out. Superman 1 frowned at his villainous counterpart, saying, “Don’t. Get. Up.”

Casey went after Shane with a vengeance. The Red Ninja Storm Ranger had tried to knock out the Red Tiger Ranger with laser blasts and sneak attacks, which only pissed him off. “That’s it, loser!” Casey shouted, and landed 2 roundhouse kicks to Shane’s jaw, shattering his helmet, then slammed him in the stomach with a suckerpunch, and just socked him in the jaw, knocking him out. “I just said it, but it still needs to be said-you’re a complete loser!

Theo went after Tori. The Blue Ninja Storm looked at him and stupidly asked “You’re not really going to hit a girl-are you?”

In response, Theo said “You see, it’s like this-” and socked her in the jaw, like Casey did with Shane, shattering her helmet, knocking her out, saying as he did “In MY family, equality of the sex is a given fact-so you being a girl makes no difference to me.”

“Thank you-so much-for explaining.” Tori sputtered before passing out.

“You’re not gonna nail me like that! I’m-” Dustin started, when he found he was talking to himself. “Oh, got wise and left, did y-” He really should have known better.

The Yellow Ninja Storm Ranger was hit by a series of superspeed punches and kicks before he even knew what happened. By the time he was able to focus, Lilly had kicked him in the jaw, shattering his helmet and knocking him out. “See what revenge gets you?” Lilly smirked.

“It gets them nothing!” Det. Alexandra Eames smiled. While Lilly’s fight was happening, the Pink Eagle Jungle Fury Ranger was driving Blake crazy with her flying attacks. By the time that the Navy Thunder Storm Ranger was ready for her, she had him in her sights, knocking him out with a well paced punch. “Whose ass just got kicked?” Eames finished.

“You’re gonna pay for messing with my brother, lady!” Hunter snarled, then charged, forgetting about Eames’ partner.

Det. Robert Goren, the Black Lion Jungle Fury Ranger, used his Lion Tailwhip to snare the Crimson ThunderStorm Ranger, then pull him towards a knockout punch from his fist. “You said something about us paying for this? Where’s Dom?”

“Right here. Cam thought his jaw wasn’t made of glass. He was wrong!” Dominic smiled. The White Rhino Jungle Fury Ranger had taken out the Green Samurai Ranger with complete ease. “These idiots never learn!”

“Hey, where’s RJ?” asked Lilly.

RJ was battling Psycho Purple, along with Samantha, Jackie, Aisha 1, Paige, and Elle. “Thanks for letting me in on this, ladies,” said the Purple Jungle Fury Ranger.

“Well, since you got snubbed in Crossworld City, we figured we owed you one,” said Samantha with a smile.

“This time, you’re all going to get ‘snubbed’ . . . by ME!” yelled Psycho Purple as she charged forward. However, all five of her heroic counterparts landed kicks, sending her flying.

“Bad move, you pathetic excuse for a Ranger,” said Aisha 1, the Purple Lightstar Ranger.

“If I were you, I wouldn’t get up,” said Paige, the Purple Cunning Cheetah Wild Force Ranger. Guess what Psycho Purple did?

“Too late,” said Jackie. “Don’t say we didn’t warn you.” She and Samantha then blasted her with their slings. Aisha 1 hurled her Battlestar Boomerang, causing more damage. Paige fired her Purple Cheetah Crossbow, blowing a hole in Psycho Purple’s chest. RJ struck with his Jungle Tonfa.

Finally, it came down to Elle. The Purple Power Angel simply said, “Good-bye,” before hitting Psycho Purple with a blast of sound as powerful as a sonic boom, obliterating her.

While the battle was still going on, Circe arrived, bringing with her several men who had been transformed into ferocious animals. She boasted, “You may be able to hold your own against these losers, but can any of you handle my Bestiamorphs?”

Eve stepped forward and said, “We won’t have to.” She then concentrated, causing the Bestiamorphs to focus their attention on Circe.

At first, Circe was horrified by what she was seeing. She then smiled and chuckled. “Impressive. No one has ever turned my own minions against me. But even so, they cannot kill me. I am immortal.”

“So I’ve heard,” said Eve. “But that doesn’t mean that you can’t feel pain.”

“I guess I’ll just take control of you and your friends then.” Circe attempted to use her mind control powers to no avail.

The Charmed Ones and both Isis’ stepped forward. “Sorry to disappoint you,” said Prue.

“But the five of us cast a spell that protects us from mind control,” said Piper.

“And with your minions against you now, why don’t you just save yourself the trouble and leave?” asked Phoebe.

“The choice is yours,” said Isis 1.

“If you stay, the chances of you getting hurt are one-hundred percent guaranteed,” said Eve.

“Why don’t you face me yourself, Angel, if you’re so confident?” asked Circe.

“Gladly,” said Eve confidently.

Isis 2 put a hand on Eve’s shoulder. “I don’t think that’s a good idea.”

Eve winked at Isis 2, saying, “Trust me. I have a plan.”

As the Bestiamorphs stepped away, Circe walked towards the Diamond Power Angel. She smirked, saying, “You were foolish to accept my challenge. I know who you are. I’ve seen what you do for a living. The only fighting you know how to do is all pretend. I’m going to enjoy killing you.” She then attempted to beat Eve into submission. However, Eve managed to block every punch and kick Circe tried. Circe was able to do the same whenever Eve tried to go on the offensive. Knowing that she couldn’t beat Circe in a fistfight, Eve hoped Circe would make a mistake that would give her an advantage. It came when Circe missed wildly with a punch. Eve was able to grab her arm and take her down. As her arm was pulled back, Circe actually cried out in pain!

“Still think I’m just a pretend-fighter, Circe?” asked Eve. “Here’s the deal: You change these people back, send them home, and leave while you still can, or I’ll break your arm. Do I make myself clear?”

“Yes!” cried Circe in pain as Eve pulled back on her arm. The Bestiamorphs were reverted back to their human forms and sent home before they realized what was going on. “It’s done,” said Circe. “But don’t think you’ve seen the last of me!” She then disappeared in a flash.

Eve stood up as the Charmed Ones and both Isis’ approached. “Impressive,” said Prue. “You handled that like a pro.”

“But I fear you’ve made a dangerous enemy this day,” said Isis 1.

“I know,” said Eve solemnly. “But we can’t worry about that now. The others still need help.”

“She’s right,” said Phoebe. “Let’s go!” They then ran back into the heat of the battle.

Johnny Quick sped towards both Flashes and RPM, knocking them down. He said, “Say goodbye, losers!”

“The only loser around here is you!” cried Flash 2. He got up and landed a hard punch to Quick’s jaw, knocking him down.

Flash 1 then began running circles around him, catching him in a super-speed tornado. When he stopped, Johnny Quick fell. However, just before he hit the ground, Barry landed one more punch, sending him flying. “Your turn, RPM!”

“Catch me if you can, imposter!” cried RPM. He sped towards the dazed Crime Syndicate speedster, landing several more punches and finally knocking him out.

Both Flashes and RPM stood over the fallen Johnny Quick. Flash 1 put an arm around both Flash 2 and RPM, saying proudly, “Good job, Wally . . . both of you.” Both Wallys smiled.

The Geo Rangers were trashing the Royal Flush Gang. Al avoided every attack Ace tried. “Ha! Missed me!” cried the Red Fire Ranger.

“Hold still!” cried Ace. He swung his fist, but Al dodged.

“Oh, I’ll hold still alright,” said Al. “Long enough to do this!” The blade of her Fire Sword erupted in a burst of flame. Al swung, beheading Ace and sending his metallic head flying. Ace crumpled down, defeated, as Al caught his head. She looked at it and smiled, saying, “Poor Ace. He lost his temper . . . and his head! As for the rest of his body…” Lava then erupted from the ground, melting down the rest of Ace’s android body. Al’s smile never left her face as the lava went back into the ground.

King tried using his mind control powers on Cody, not realizing that his mind was protected. Shocked, he cried out, “It’s not working!”

“Of course not, dude,” said Cody. “Our minds are protected by magic, thanks to the Charmed Babes, Isis, and Isis.” He then scoffed, saying, “And they call me a cheesehead.” The Black Thunder Ranger took one swing with his Thunder Staff, knocking King out.

Queen fired razor-sharp spades from her wrist shooters at Karen, but the Pink Wind Ranger managed to dodge. “You can’t hold out forever!” cried Queen as she fired again.

Once more, Karen avoided the shots, this time by jumping over them and firing her Wind Bow, hitting Queen and sending her flying. With Queen out of the fight, Karen smiled and said, “You may be the queen of the Royal Flush Gang, but I’m the queen of me. And soon, you’ll be the queen of prison.”

As Mark took on Ten, the Blue Water Ranger said, “I won’t hit a girl.”

Ten smiled cruelly and said, “Well, that’s too bad…Because I have no problem fighting with you!” She then threw playing cards at Mark, but Mark dodged them.

“Hey, I said I wouldn’t hit you, I never said I wouldn’t fight you,” responded Mark. He then smiled, adding, “And technically, wiping you out is not hitting you.” He then fired his Water Cannon, the pressure causing Ten to scream as she was sent flying. As Ten struggled to get to her feet, Mark caused a geyser to shoot out of the ground. She was sent high into the air, only high enough that when she landed, she was knocked out but alive.

Jack fired a laser from his cybernetically-enhanced left eye at Brendan, but the Green Earth Ranger dodged. “Hey!” he cried. “Watch where you’re pointing that thing!”

“I don’t have to,” said Jack. “Because I’ve got my sights set on you!” He fired again, but Brendan blocked it with his Earth Axe. Jack fired again and again, but Brendan kept deflecting the shots as he charged forward. And when he was close enough, he jumped over his adversary, nailing him in his artificial eye with the butt of his axe as he did so.

Jack screamed in pain. “MY EYE! YOU DESTROYED MY EYE!”

“I thought it was already destroyed?” asked Brendan in confusion. He shrugged and made the ground quicksand-like, causing Jack to sink. He then kicked Jack in the side of the head, knocking him out.

Xander Bly, the Green Nature Mystic Ranger, launched an attack on several Luthor robots and Hunger Dogs by first causing the ground beneath them to turn to quicksand, then smashed the robots by causing the trees to grow through their wiring, permanently short circuiting them. “Anyone know what to do with a bunch of cheap machines?”

“We’ll think of something.” Udonna replied. The White Snow Mystic Ranger was busy freezing a group of Cogs and Quantrons. “Nick, are you-”

“Me? I’m great, it’s these losers you should be worried about!” Nick Russell, the Red Fire Mystic Ranger was mopping up a pack of Skugs and Putrids. “Hey, Vida, how are-”

“Us? Me and Maddie are fantastic!” Vida Rocca shouted. The Pink Wind Mystic Ranger, and her sister, Madison, the Blue Water Mystic Ranger, had combined wind and water to make a mess of both Putties and Tengas.

“Eat our dust, clowns!” Madison shouted.

“Let’s see how they like a few thousand volts!” Chip Thorn, the Yellow Lightning Mystic Ranger, yelled as he blasted a few Tyrannodrones.

“Save some for me!” Daggeron shouted. The Solaris Knight was making mincemeat out of a few Batlings, just as Anubis ‘Doggie’ Cruger, the SPD Shadow Ranger, arrived, and finished off the rest with his Shadow Saber. Daggeron smiled and said, “It’s not about revenge-”

“-It’s about justice!” Cruger finished.

As this fight was going on, Psycho White tried to target the White Power Angel, Megan Wheeler. “This dagger is going to be the last thing you ever-” the Psycho started, when he was blasted with an intense burst of light, blinding him.

“You were saying?” Megan snapped, then turned to the others, saying “He’s all yours!”

“Our pleasure! Hey, dumbass, remember me!” Zhane shouted, and gave the Psycho a quick slash with his Super Silverizer. Merrick, the Silver Lunar Wolf Wild Force Ranger, followed that with a shot from his Laser Lance, impaling it’s right shoulder, then Trent followed with high speed slashes with his Drago Dagger.

Merrick smiled and said “Tommy was right. You’re a complete moron!”

Now pissed, Psycho White got up, screaming “Where is the fool?”

“Looking in the mirror again?” Tommy 1 smiled from behind his helmet. He and Tommy 2 double-teamed him, giving the Psycho back-to-back flying kicks, leaving him for Hyde to finish him off with a roundhouse kick, followed by a suckerpunch.

With the destroyed Psycho in pieces on the ground, Tommy 2 said, “It’s over, Psycho White.”

Hyde smirked, “Someone got a DVD player they could use spare parts for?”

“Back to the old drawing board for you,” said Trent.

With the Psycho Rangers defeated, soon the other villains on the surface of the Animarium were put down. Some Tengas charged Apparition, but she made herself intangible, causing the Tengas to go right through her. She smirked and said, “Missed me.”

“But I won’t miss,” said Spark as she shot electricity at the Tengas, causing them to caw in pain as they went flying.

Changeling, in the form of an ape, trashed whatever foot-soldiers remained before reverting back to normal. Looking around, he asked, “Did we win?”

Touching her forehead, Dream Girl said, “No. I don’t think so. There’s still something amiss.”

She was proven right as the skies began thundering. A sinister voice said, “You are correct. You all will rue the day you decided to stand against me!” In a flash, the Master appeared before the assembled group of heroes. Luthor, Rita, and Zedd then teleported in. The Master said, “It ends here, fools!”

“Hand over the Reality Gems,” demanded Luthor.

“Sorry, Lex,” said Superman 1. “But the Reality Gems are now safe. Somewhere where you can’t get to them.”

“You’re going to wish you hadn’t said that, you overgrown Boy Scout,” said Rita. “For we didn’t come alone.”

In a flash, more henchmen arrived""in the form of the Martian Manhunter’s most despised foes. Martian Manhunter 1’s eyes went wide as he whispered, “Cosmos.” He then snarled, “You’ve freed the White Martians!”

“That’s right,” hissed the head of the White Martians. “And now, J’onn J’onzz, the time has come for you to pay for your crimes . . . both you and your look-alike!”

In a rare display of raw emotion, Martian Manhunter 2 exploded in a burst of rage, “GENOCIDAL MANIACS! As long as I’m alive, as long as WE’RE alive, you will never destroy another world!” Many of the assembled Rangers stared at both Martian Manhunters in shock. Never before had they seen this side of him . . . of either of them.

“And that’s not all,” said Luthor. Five more people arrived""the SPD A-Squad!

Recognizing them, Cruger snarled, “So, you’ve brought them as well.”

“That’s right, ‘Commander,'” said Charlie, A-Squad’s female leader with an evil smirk. “And now, you’re going to pay for imprisoning us.”

“ATTACK!” ordered the Master. The White Martians and A-Squad charged, the assembled heroes meeting them head-on.

Both Martian Manhunters used their super-strength to beat down the White Martians. They also shape-shifted into different creatures, taking several more out of the fight.

Timber Wolf pounced on the White Martians, bounding around, frustrating them. “You never learn, do you?” he asked rhetorically.

“I do not wish to fight you,” said X. “But if this is the way you want it, so be it.” He finally charged his X-Buster to the max and fired, taking out more White Martians.

“That’s the spirit, X,” said Zero as he cut into more with his Z-Saber.

Axl jumped into the air and hovered, pumping his Axl Bullets into several White Martians, shouting, “YAHOO! This is fun!”

“This world will never belong to you!” said all three girls that composed Triad as they engaged the White Martians in hand-to-hand combat.

“Is it too late for us to be friends?” asked Starman as several White Martians charged. When they didn’t answer, he shrugged and said, “Guess so.” He then used his density manipulation power to cause the White Martians to be unable to move!

“What’s going on here?” asked one White Martian as he stood there seemingly frozen.

“You’ve lost!” cried Troia. “That’s what’s going on.” She then began beating the defenseless White Martians.

“Let’s see you get a charge out of this,” said Wonder Girl as she wrapped more White Martians with her lasso. She allowed herself to get angry, zapping them with electricity.

“Hey, Donna, Cass, save some for us,” said Red Arrow with a smile.

“Yeah, we want to say we did our part to save reality, don’t we?” asked Speedy with a smile of her own. She and Red Arrow then fired flame arrows, setting the White Martians ablaze.

As she fought, Saturn Girl shouted to the Charmed Ones, “White Martians coming right for you guys! Be careful!”

“We’ve got ’em! Let’s nail these creeps!” Piper shouted, then froze each of the White Martians in the immediate area before causing them to explode. Prue then took each of the White Martians attacking her and sent them slamming into each other.

“Hey, you could have saved some for me!” Phoebe snapped, and used her new pyro power, setting several White Martians ablaze.

Zedd jumped in front of Phoebe. “Remember me?” He asked, only to get a major slash from the Sword of Fire.

He turned to see Larry Zedden, pissed and ready to fight. “The question is, do you remember me?” asked Larry with a snarl. “Let’s dance!”

And it was on!

Zedd charged his human alter-ego, but Larry was able to dodge. Zedd, however, recovered quickly enough to block a sword strike from Larry. As the two of them stood face-to-face, Zedd growled, “You think you can defeat me, puny human?”

“I’ll either stop you or die trying,” answered Larry as sword and staff clashed.

Both Zeo teams were battling the White Martians. Kat 1 and Kimberly 2 blocked the White Martians’ attacks with their shields before kicking their attackers away. Kat 1 said, “You fight with the same grace and poise as our Kimberly.”

“And you’re as worthy of the power as our Kat,” said Kimberly 2. “Don’t ever doubt that.”

Both Tanyas fought together, Tanya 1 saying in a teasing tone, “Wow, Tanya, you’re good.”

“Why, thank you very much, Tanya,” Tanya 2 teased back. They continued to fight, bashing White Martians with their nun-chucks.

Rocky 1 and Justin cut down White Martians with their arm blades. Rocky 1 said, “No offense, Justin, but I like you better in red and with a British accent.”

“None taken, Rocky,” said Justin. “But I think red looks better on you than on me.”

Zack 2 and David fought side-by-side, chopping down White Martians with their hatchets. “You fight with the same style as our Zack,” said David.

“Thanks, man,” said Zack 2. “Although I now wear green and you wear black, you are most worthy of being Zeo Ranger IV.”

Adam 1 and Jason 2 fought side-by-side with their swords. Adam 1 said, “You do our Jason proud.”

“Thanks,” said Jason 2 with nod. “You make a great leader yourself.”

Trey and Trini 2 fought off White Martians with their Gold Power Staffs. Although Trini 2 was technically a Morphin Ranger and Trey a Zeo Ranger, they fought well together. Trey said, “Let’s end this, shall we?”

“Let’s,” agreed Trini 2 with a nod. “For honor, for Earth.”

“It’s time for a Gold Rush!” cried both Gold Rangers in unison as they held up their staffs. Both Gold Power Staffs powered up. They each fired gold energy spheres, sending several White Martians flying.

Larry was able to continually parry with Zedd, but the truth was, he was simply no match for Zedd on his own.

Zedd managed to knock the Sword of Fire out of Larry’s hand. He then kicked Larry in the chest, knocking him down. Zedd stood over Larry, saying, “Now, you die!”

As Zedd raised his staff to deliver the final blow, Jamie turned to see her father’s predicament. “DAD!” she cried out. She fired a blast from the Sword of Lightning at Zedd, sending him flying. She then ran over to Larry to check on him. She asked, “Dad, are you okay?”

“I’m fine,” said Larry with a nod as he picked up the Sword of Fire.

“He won’t be for long, child,” said Zedd as he stood up, glowing red. “You’ve only delayed the inevitable!”

“Oh, yeah?” asked Jamie. “DELAY THIS!” She and Larry then fired a blast from each of their swords, sending Zedd flying and taking him out of the fight.

With Zedd down, Wonder Woman 2 asked Starman, “Can you send him back to our Universe?”

Starman smiled and said, “I’ll do you one better.” He then opened a black hole, sending Zedd back to his own Universe… but not exactly where he would have liked to have gone. Seeing the fallen Crime Syndicate, he said, “As for them…” He then opened another black hole, sending them back to their own world.

“Let’s show these creeps why the dark side is the wrong side,” said Shadow Lass.

“Let’s do this,” said Raven 1. She, Shadow Lass, and Raven 2 began to trap many White Martians in a large dark field, rendering them defenseless and easy prey.

Turning to Robin and both Cyborgs, Raven 2 said, “They’re all yours.”

“Thanks, Rae,” said Robin with a smile. He then threw an exploding batarang into the field, taking out multiple White Martians.

“I got the sonic,” said Cyborg 1.

“I got the boom,” said Cyborg 2. Both Cyborgs then fired their arm cannons, putting down more White Martians.

As Black Canary 1 kicked away a White Martian, she said, “Speaking of sonic booms.”

“How’s this for a sonic boom?” asked Black Canary 2. Both Canaries then let loose with their Canary Cries, sending several White Martians flying.

Cruger and Dan cut down several White Martians with their sabers. Cruger turned to Dan with a smile, saying, “You do the Shadow Ranger colors proud.”

Dan threw throwing stars at more White Martians and cut down more with his saber before responding. “Thanks. Hopefully, with you and your team of Rangers, the future will be in good hands.”

Speaking of the SPD Rangers, they were teaching the A-Squad a lesson. Jack Landors (SPD Red), Sky Tate (SPD Blue), Bridge Carson (SPD Green), Elizabeth “Z” Delgado (SPD Yellow), and Sydney “Syd” Drew (SPD Pink) simply beat each of their A-Squad counterparts to a pulp. With the fight over surprisingly quickly, Jack said, “So much for the mighty A-Squad.”

“And the best part is, we didn’t even have to use our SWAT gear,” said Z with a smirk.

“We’ve come a long way, haven’t we?” asked Sky. Bridge and Syd simply smiled and nodded in agreement.

Rita struggled to fend off both Isis’. Isis 1 used a gust of wind to blow Rita away, causing her to scream and drop her staff. Both Isis’ walked over to the fallen Rita. Seeing her staff, Isis 2 simply stomped on the red crystal, shattering it. Rita screamed as she felt her power leave her.

Both Isis’ then caused some vines to burst from the ground, wrapping Rita tightly in them. “That should hold you,” said Isis 1.

“You think you’ve stopped me?” asked Rita defiantly. “When I get out of here, I swear I’ll…” She never got to finished as a piece of vine made itself into her mouth, preventing her from speaking.

“That’s enough back-talk from you,” said Isis 2.

Nyssa, Tegan, and Adric, the 5th Doctor’s companions, called some of the WildZords together to trap some of the Daleks. They were so intent on nailing the companions, that they didn’t know that they were about to be trashed by the LionZord, the Cheetahzord, and the BisonZord. The Jungle Fury Animal Zords joined forces with the WildZords, nailing many of the Daleks. Nyssa smiled and said “Princess Shayla was right. When humans and animals join forces together, there isn’t anything they can’t do.”

“I’ve always known this.” Leela smiled. The 4th Doctor’s savage companion preferred to use her knife to trash more of Luthor’s robots.

Sarah Jane Smith was screaming at the top of her lungs as Tengas and Daleks approached her, but this was a setup for Melanie (the new 6th Doctor’s companion) , Samantha Jones, (companion to the new 7th Doctor), and Rose (the new 8th Doctor’s partner), caught them in an area where they could not move. Surrounded by Nitro Nine, an explosive that was used by Sophie, another companion of the 6th Doctor, the Daleks were no longer a threat.

The Master snarled. “I will have those Gems, and Gallifrey will once more no longer be a threat. I-”

“Oh, do shut up!” the 2nd Doctor snapped. The Master turned, only to get a right cross from both the 3rd Doctor and Ryan Steele.

While recovering from this, the 6th, 7th, and 8th Doctors tricked him into believing that he could escape and capture the Animarium. “I WILL DESTROY ALL OF YOU! YOU WILL ALL BOW TO ME! I HAVE KILLED THREE OF YOU, DOCTOR! YOU WILL KNEEL BEFORE ME!”

Both the 4th and 5th Doctors asked “Are you sure, Master?”

The Master then blindly and angrily charged into the clearing, only to be blasted by both the weapons of Kaitlyn Starr and JB Reese, followed by a knockout punch from the 4th Doctor. “That spares us anymore crybaby fits from him.” The 5th Doctor finished.

Luthor snarled. His Psycho Ranger robots were trashed, but he was sending out more of his own personal battle drones to finish the heroes off. But as he was doing this, he looked up-and saw his drones being dismantled with ease. Mack Hartford, Rose Ortiz, Will Anton, Veronica ‘Ronny’ Robinson, Dax Lo, and Tyzonn, the Operation Oveerdrive team, had destroyed Luthor’s forces, leaving him only one option-SPLIT!

This was not to be the case. Led by Wes Collins, the Time Force Rangers cut off each avenue of his escape with the Time Fliers. Luthor was blocked by Wes, Jen Cassidy, Lucas Kendall, Katie Adams, and Trip Regis. Backing away, Luthor ran right into Eric Meyers. The Quantum Ranger then shrugged, and socked him in the jaw. “This is the criminal mastermind that gives Superman grief? We must have caught him during a bad day!”

“Let’s make sure of that!” Jen shouted. She and Wes went to work on dismantling his suit, while Katie used her strength to smash his remaining robots. Lucas and Trip wrecked his escape rocket, while Eric knocked Luthor himself out.

Trip chuckled, “Looks like Luthor’s bad day just got worse.”

Mack smiled. “That takes care of the main three. How’s the Doctor-Doctors handling the Master?”

The 5th Doctor walked over, saying “This time, no problem. We took him out of the picture.”

Everyone looked around the Animarium. The Green Lantern Corps then began landing, Arisia saying, “Great news, everyone! We sent those robots packing!”

“Indeed,” said Salaak with a nod. “They’ve all been destroyed.”

“Those poozers never stood a chance,” finished Kilowog.

Changeling asked, “So, did we win now?”

“Yeah, I believe we did,” answered Ronny. The Animarium erupted in celebration.

“Now, to make sure our remaining foes are handed over to the proper authorities,” said Bridge as he took out a judgement scanner for the A-Squad. “Judgement Mode!” As expected, the A-Squad were found guilty.

“Guilty,” said Syd. “Allow me to do the honors.” She then trapped the A-Squad in containment cards.

Soon, all the villains were handed over. All the Rangers, the Troopers, and the Power Angels were now back in their civilian forms. The Doctors and their companions had the Master wrapped up and would be taking him back to Gallifrey. “It is time for us to return to Gallifrey,” said the 5th Doctor. “We thank you all for your assistance. We couldn’t have done it without you. Especially the Power Angels.”

“It was our pleasure,” said Kelly with a nod and a smile.

“Now, we must take our leave,” said the 4th Doctor. “The Master has a lot to answer for. Good day.” The Doctors and their companions then took the Master away and stepped into the TARDIS. In seconds, it was gone.

Several portals were opened up, indicating that it was time for the visiting heroes to go. Both Xenas, both Hercules’, and their companions were the first to go. As she hugged Trini 1, Xena 1 said, “You take care, Trini. And good luck with Billy.”

Trini 1 smiled and said, “Thanks. It was an honor to fight by your side again.”

As Xena 2 and Kat 2 hugged, Xena 2 said, “Goodbye, Kat. And may you live a long and glorious life.”

“Thanks, Xena,” whispered Kat 2. “And I hope one day, you find your own peace.” Both Xenas then broke the hugs on their respective descendants and stepped through the portals with their friends, the portals disappearing in a flash once they did so.

Mega Man X and his friends then approached the portal that would take them home. X turned to the other heroes and said, “Keep up the good fight, my friends. Good-bye.” He, Zero, and Axl then stepped through.

It was now SPD’s turn to leave. Cruger said, “Let justice prevail, my friends. Maybe we’ll meet again in the future.” SPD then left.

Next up was the Legion. Live Wire said, “Good-bye, fellow heroes. I hope we all meet again as well.” The Legion then stepped through the portal.

Finally, it was time for the Rangers, Justice League, and Titans from another Universe to go. Superman 2 smiled and said, “It was an honor to fight by your side. This has been a truly remarkable experience for us all. Maybe someday, if fate decides it, we’ll see each other again. Good-bye.” They stepped through the last portal, disappearing from the Animarium.

When their counterparts were gone, Kimberly said, “I’m going to miss them.”

Taking his fiancee’s hand, Tommy said, “I know, beautiful. We all are.”

Hyde then took Jackie’s hand, whispering to her, “I’ve made my decision: I’m staying.” Jackie simply smiled at her boyfriend.

Rocky said, “Let’s go, guys. I don’t know about you, but I’m…”

“HUNGRY!” interrupted the other Rangers who knew him. Everyone laughed as they got ready to leave the Animarium.

Meanwhile, in an Alternate Universe:

The Rangers, the Justice League, and the Titans all arrived back at the Satellite. Alpha and Zordon were there to greet them, Alpha saying, “Ay, yi, yi! You made it back!” He then went over to hug Billy and the other Rangers.

“That was awesome!” exclaimed Aisha with a smile. “Going to another Universe, meeting another version of myself, saving reality. I mean, what could be better?”

“YOU HAVE DONE WELL, ALL OF YOU,” said Zordon. “I AM VERY PROUD OF EACH OF YOU.”

“I’m curious, though,” said Mark. “Whatever happened to Zedd?”

Looking at the Viewing Globe, Alpha laughed, “Hee, hee, hee, I think I’ve got a pretty good idea. Look.”

Everyone gathered around the Viewing Globe. There was an image of Zedd, pounding on a force field he was trapped in on Oa. “ZORDON!” screamed Zedd. “RANGERS! JUSTICE LEAGUE! YOU’LL PAY FOR THIS! WHEN I GET OUT OF HERE, THE WHOLE UNIVERSE WILL PAY!”

Several of the Guardians were watching. Ganthet, the Guardian who had sent the transmission said, “Temperamental, isn’t he?” The Rangers, the Justice League, and the Titans couldn’t help but laugh. Even Batman and Zordon were chuckling.

Once he had composed himself, Zordon spoke up again. “WHY DON’T YOU ALL HEAD ON BACK TO EARTH FOR A REST? YOU’VE EARNED IT.”

“We all have,” agreed Martian Manhunter with a smile. “Let’s go.”

“Hey, guys, why don’t we head on down to the Youth Center?” asked Rocky. “I don’t know about you guys, but I’m…”

“HUNGRY!” interrupted the other Rangers. Everyone laughed as they got ready to leave the Satellite.

“We’ll join you later,” said Al with a smile, speaking up for the Geo Rangers. “Right now, I think dad, Carol, and Lilly are going to want to know all the details of what went down.” Soon, everyone was teleported back to Earth for a well-earned rest.

TO BE CONCLUDED
